Old things become new again!

I love anything old and funky! If it's rusty, peeling paint, and just plain worn out looking, then it's for me! All you need to do is use your imagination, a little sparkle and old discards become works of art!

My little forest!

I hand dyed these bottle brush trees, added real German glass glitter and embellished them with vintage jewelry. Some have old bottle bases or silver plate mustard servers:)

Beautiful dresser

I found this dresser at an estate sale. I love it, so I'm going to keep it! In with the old and out with the boring:)!!

Crazy find

Ok, maybe I'm crazy but this is going to be so cool when I'm done with fun find!

Estate sale finds

I made this tiered tray from a silver plate tray and a glass thing the lady was throwing away!

A small vingnette

I painted this coffee table and it is really shabby chic!

Another view

My new venture!

I'm in another shop... Collectiquity in La Mesa. I love having walls to hang things... like my chalk boards and other fun finds!!

Our trip to Big Sur

The beautiful coast on our way home.

Altered Bottles!

Here's a few more bottles I embellished with my garage and estate sale finds.

An Altered Rusty Tobacco Ton

This rusty tobacco tin came from a friend who dug it up in Fallon, Nevada along the Immigrant Trail where the pioneers traveled!
I added some copper screen, rusty pieces and a pearl for refinement:)
