Bits and Pieces

I have been looking for something to put over my headboard for (don't laugh) about 14 years. Not seriously looking, but you know- kinda keeping an eye out. I knew what I didn't want, but couldn't find the just right piece. Well, I thought of Etsy-I think of that more and more , and found this.Shabby, cracked and perfect. The curve is what I was looking for-here's my headboard and if I hold the piece next to it -the curve is exactly the same. Yea! So up it went.
Another piece I've had,actually a plate holder, we put in the bathroom and it's now a towel holder. That picture is from my Mom's Child's Garden of Verses.
I love when you can reuse something in a new way-I guess that's what repurpose really is,duh.
This is an old door trim piece that is now over the piano.
Last I had to share this bit-my new herb pot holding 2 kinds of basil, mint and cilantro. The cute red pot is from Walmart.
Still working away on different projects-I'll share as I finish. Have a great Wednesday!

  1. I always love to see how you create these simple yet beautiful vignettes. The little salt box house is darling. That is a great piece of architectural detail...how long do you think it will take me to find it? Smiles...Renee
