Another Jute Webbing Idea...

Months ago I did a post that shared lots of jute

 webbing ideas from around the web.  

You may remember some of them...

Well today, courtesy of the c'est Moi Le Shoppe 

on Etsy - I found this bit of loveliness...

Oi mee guudness!

Repeatedly Pinned...

Do you have pins that get repinned over and over?

  These seem to be my top three...

I have so many other pins that I like better - 

but these are the ones that are 'hits'.   

What are your most popular pins?

Dresser Project...

It feels so good to complete a project - 

especially when you're happy with the results.   

This little dresser sits proudly in my booth today - 

ready for a new home.  

A few weeks ago - it was receiving a few repairs 

(i.e. glue & wood filler) and in need of a make over.

  (a free pile rescue I had to talk My Love into)

 My trusty old book pages were put into service.  

 They were decoupaged to the drawer fronts and top,

 given a bit of glaze and sealed with poly.

  Wanna learn about appendicitis?  

This is the dresser for you!

 I've seen these done in white - but I'm loving this

 'farmhouse' look from keeping the original finish.    

Sorry - I forgot to shoot the nice detail on the dresser sides...

I found more projects-in-waiting today.  

Gotta love yard sales and free piles.

Store Displays...

I played with dress rack displays at 'my' 

thrift shop today.   

These racks are free standing and can be viewed from all sides.  

 I'm just showing you the main front side that the customers see when 

they walk in the front door.  

My favorite today was this one with the old

 baseballs.  Found those little rackets on the store

 shelf (don't know what they are) and added them 

to the mix.

 As always - I work with what I can find on the store shelves.  Loved these straw totes and added some beach themed books.  There are a few pillows

and a beach towel too - why not?

 We get a fair amount of apple themed items donated.  While not my favorite - they always go together quick, display well and sell!

 

What did you do today?

What's For Supper & More...

Don't you love it when you open your Pinterest feed

 and suddenly you have supper?  Today I spotted

 Quesadilla Casserole - and balla bing - just like that -

 it is waiting in my crockpot!

 I followed the recipe in the link with these

 substitutions 
('cause being thrifty is all about using what you have)

 My tortillas are corn (for gluten free)
 tomato sauce is my own frozen tomato juice

 beans are frozen pinto that I cooked from dried & froze
cheese is American
Do you think it will even taste the same?  

Doesn't matter - it will still be good!

Oh - and the recipe uses green chilis which I stocked up on months ago 

when I found them 3/$100.

 'Twas a fast supper to put together - good thing
 since I've got other projects calling my name today!

 A scene from yesterday - My Love on his bike.  

We took a beautiful Father's Day cycle ride 

with perfect weather!
