A Couple to Garage Sale REDO's and a Jonque Bracelet

I found this basket at a garage sale. It still had the original price tag of $16.99 from TJ maxx's. I thought it would make the perfect storage for all of my massive magazines collection that I have scattered all over the house. I wanted to slide it under the television stand in the family room but it needed a little height to it. So, I took a scrap piece of wood and added some industrial looking wheels and it gave it the height that it so needed.

















This vintage stool has beautiful brass legs but it just needed to recovered in a fun print to give it a little PIZZAZZ!

It like the way it turned out!!




Finally, this is a Jonque bracelet that I recently made out of some more "charmers" that I have collected over the years. I especially love the peace sign. The fun thing about this bracelet is every little charmer has a story.



Have a beautiful weekend!!!!

  2. What clever ideas! I wouldn't have thought to add wheels. But it's perfect. I've been looking for a vintage foot stool, but haven't found one yet. You did an excellent job on that redo!
