Christmas Sleds Stuffed With Stuff

My Christmas workshop in the cellar is running

out of "bits and bobs".  There were just a few misc

pieces left, and I decided to shove everything in these 

three little sleds.  

I bought all three sleds at a local antiques store,

for about what I would have paid at a yard sale.

Only one is old.   But I knew I had plenty of  Christmas 

"stuff" left to vintage them up.

The one above I entitled "Let Heaven and NATURE Sing".

So now my Christmas workshop in the cellar

is officially closed (and empty).

All three will be last minute additions to my

vintage booth at Camp Flea.

Salvaged Window Project

So we are getting work done in our mudroom.

This window had been covered with wood,

we weren't sure if the window was there anymore.

It didn't matter because we are putting corrugated tin over the 

entire mess anyway.  But there it was!

We are using the top one in the door of our chicken coop.

But the bottom one was fair game to re-purpose.

It did have a 2x2 inch chunk out of the wood in the bottom.

But I found hinges big enough to cover that,

and other vintage hardware bits to spice up the rest.

The window adhesive I purchased a year or so ago for $2,

Already in my antique booth!

Unconventional Christmas Trees

 I bought all of these metal wheels at a flea market,

and when I stacked them up -- VIOLA.

An industrial Christmas tree.

 We just recently tackled the "garden"

in our back yard.  After the previous owner

abandoned it, he used it to toss his old wine bottles.

I wish he would have drank about three more!

This screen has literally sat by our trash can outside since we moved in.

I knew I didn't want to toss it, but didn't know what to do with it.

Until now.
