A colleague's mother-in-law recently went into an old-age home
and I got to pick whatever "old, musty stuff" I wanted. The other
half and I hired a ute and had to make two trips. :D
Above is a snippet of what we collected. We also scored an old stereo,
a china cabinet, cushions, prints, mirrors, blankets, ornaments, doilies...
I feel so blessed to be able to cherish what was once cherished by someone
else. I promise to take very good care of it all.
Ooh, it's a beauty! I've managed to get myself an old kitchen cabinet recently, it's in need of some doing up though! XO
ReplyDeleteOh so pretty. I'm so thrilled that these gorgeous items have found a home to love them again.
ReplyDeleteLove it the cabinet, and the dishes are sweet! I love adopting old stuff that might otherwise go in the trash or be forgotten and neglected.
