Someones GW castoff...

I like castoffs.... Affordable ART!...



A little wire basket of soft pink shabbiness...


Bathroom essentials...



Vintage jars...




A little softness around the house...a lot of which belonged to someone else at some point!

  6. I keep thinking I can't afford to redo my home into exactly what I would like it and that it would take forever at the rate i would be able to spend, but you inspire me to try! Your home is beautiful. When we finish the exterior rennovation, I'll have to start on the inside slowly!

  7. Hi Kathy, Loved the photos and the liked that you told us where things came from. I especially liked the basket of ribbon roses, did you make them? Just lovely. You and your dear hubby are on our prayer list every night.
    Love, Penny

  8. Hi Kathy....I look around my own home and see a lot of stuff that used to belong to someone else and that makes me so happy! Because I know that I got it for a deal and a lot of it has been reinvented! I love all your little vignettes around your home! They are so pretty!~Hugs, Patti

  9. Hey Kathy-You are in my prayers this morning-as you are every day now. I love the post and I have been thinking along those lines for a while now. As you probably know, I work in a hospital where so much of life's decisions made in the snap of a finger....and people start realizing that stuff is just "stuff" and life and family is what it is really all about. And, even though I KNOW that..yeah...well, I still like my stuff!

    Thanks for the reminder this morning -that everything we have is just temporary and we can choose to keep it all to ourselves..or pass it on for someone else to love. Lord..did this post get a little "out" there or what? Sorry- Hugs- Diana

  11. What? No garage sales? No cast-offs? Perish the thought- I am too addicted and the thrill of the hunt is what keeps me going. LOL
    Love your bathroom and all its accoutrements.
