A Tool Box Isn't Just For Tools Anymore

There are so many uses for everyday items...and to me...the older, rustier,

more faded and distressed...the better.

Let me show you some items that may have begun their journey intended

for one use...but then I got a hold of them and...

well...take a peek~a~loo at some goodies that have found new and different life in our home.

This is one of my favorite things in the kitchen...

My family wouldn't know what to do if I put silverware in a drawer...
I added a couple of wooden needle, spindle~y things...just cuz...

There is an old rusty, paint~peel~y ladder that I use as a pot rack under

all of those pots and baskets...

Used to be a headboard...

Now it's a bench...

Doll houses are not just for dolls....not in my neck of the woods...

The clock in~nerds are long gone...

But this piece is timeless in my book...

Rooster~loving dish towels...

Are now a couple of my favorite pillows...

This old window hangs above the tub in the bathroom...

Great storage for every basket I have ever owned and then some...

I am really starting to get in the autumn mood...I have decided to not buy any

new fall decor...but instead re~purpose and re~use all the stuff~ola I have gleaned over the years into new and interesting seasonal goodies...with all my coloring outside the lines and decorating shenanigans...it is a good thing my family loves me...odd silverware holder and all...what can I say...it is just fun~ner to decorate this way!
