The Price was Right!




Love my new little treasure? Yesterday when Steve and I were making our way to Home Depot for our weekly title of 10% of our income - we drove by the neighbor on the corner and as we waved we saw he was having a yard sale - mostly motorcycle stuff and guy stuff and on the table I eyed this white birdhouse like item.....so I thought if he was still out when we drove back home I would look at it.....and an hour later when we turned the corner it was still there.



We stopped and visited and I saw that it was in great shape and was a candle holder inside (tea light) and at some point the candles must have spilled as wax was everywhere on the beveled glass inside. When I asked the price - he said - 'I want you to have it, bring me down a beer sometime' so when we got home I sent Steve down with a beer and cleaned up my new little treasure. Paid in full, thank you very much!



I think it fits perfectly in my living room and love the white contrast against the taupe walls. I also think it works with my birdcage too.....



I need to find the perfect picture for my shell frame - another thing on my long and winding list....
