Old Metal Strainers



Off to the little booths today to set up a few items;
wanted to share these old metal/wire strainers that are "repurposed" for other ways~and~means:


I bent up the handle on two of them so they could hang on the wall (or fence);

sweet supporting a pretty flower pot.




Painted and stencilled a little wooden box and "made" two old books with some scrape fabric for the binders~~

That large baking tray is industrial size; painted with chalk paint then mod-podged on some French script papers~~




Okay; off to the booths to do some fluffing; may stop by a junk shop or two on the way home!





Have a great Blessed day; know that the Lord is with you always; He wants you to be happy and have your abundance in life!

Grateful for you being here~~
