Some Salvation Army Findings.

Its been way too hot to adventure out lately but I had to take my daughter to the doctors and afterward we decided to hit up the Salvation Army. I found a few goodies. I have been wanting some more old spice jars and look what I found. Aren't they perfect to make potion bottles out of.
 The spice labels just peeled off  so easily. The price wasn't bad either. I also found these 2 cute scones.
I love how they look like a scoop.
 I'm thinking about giving them a black under coat with a burgundy or mustard yellow top coat with some distressing. What would you do with them?
I couldn't resist this wooden iron. I thought it would look perfect in the laundry room. Paint it black and distress it to make it look a little old.
I was even lucky enough to find these little candle holders. I'm not sure what Im going to do with these yet.

This basket was only 25 cents. Couldn't beat the price. This will come in handy to hold my pattern packets or a cat to sleep in. My bet would be on the cats. Since they pretty much took over my craft room making it their room.
See what I mean. Nekko just had to get into everything. He is so nosy. What am I going to do with him!
I hope you enjoyed my bargains.

Awesome finds Patti! I like the sconces! Would like to see what you do with them
The candle holders would come in handy for bases for crows, witches hats,doll heads just about anything you can think of.
Have a great weekend!
