Last time I was in town I headed to the Thrift Shop. Bought a few shirts for Hey Mikey and some hard covered books for him. Kids books are 25 cents there.
These snowmen also wanted to come home with me. I thought about making a garland…then I decided that they should all go on the wreath outside the door. Far Guy drilled some holes in the snowmen plates and I threaded some copper wire through the holes.
It might look better with some Christmas lights…at any rate the Fall Decorations have been taken down.
The sun was shining yesterday! We walked and afterwards fed all the birds/squirrels. Spent a quiet day at home catching up on odds and ends.
A quiet day at home catching up on things is a good thing.
ReplyDeleteThat was a clever idea!
ReplyDeleteYou are so clever, your ideas are just amazing.
ReplyDeleteIt sure is fun to see what you do when you aren't doing anything. Nice wreath! :-)
ReplyDeleteCute idea!
ReplyDeleteI love thrift store goodies and these are awesome! Love it. I made my own grape vine wreath and liked it unadorned...so far....
ReplyDeleteAww! I love snowman. You are such a crafty person. I would’ve never thought of that and it looks great!
ReplyDeleteBlessings, Betsy
Thrift shops are fun. I love to browse the aisles. I've found some great curtains recently.
ReplyDeleteAfter lots of clouds the sun is a huge delight!
ReplyDeleteCool! Now you are giving me ideas... I need a new wreath.
ReplyDeleteI love thrift shops. It's just that I am missing the "clever decorating gene" so it wouldn't occur to me to do anything with snowmen so I would not come with stuff for decorating. The squirrels at your house are fortunate that you feed them. Those who show up here to raid the feeders aren't so lucky.
ReplyDeleteOh, how cute! Yes, I can picture it with some lights strung around it. :)
ReplyDeleteI love thrift stores and never know just what I'm going to find.
ReplyDeleteI packed up a box of Christmas decorations that I no longer want ( or need!!) so someone else can hopefully use them.
I have to get my ass into gear and decorate my house, it might cheer me upg
ReplyDeleteI love the snowmen plates and I never would have thought of putting them on a wreath! You are so creative! We put our tree up but it may take me a few days to decorate it since I'm the only one doing it.
ReplyDeleteI don't dare go to a thrift shop. I have too much stuff already. We just got all of the Christmas tubs out of the attic today. Decorating will be in full gear here tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteThe last time I tried to drill though a plate I broke the bit.
ReplyDeleteThese were wooden plates:)
DeleteIt's always fun when you find some treasures at the thrift store.
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely finds!
ReplyDeleteWhat a clever way to reuse those snowmen!
ReplyDeleteSo cute!
ReplyDeleteYay for the sun! At times like these dreary winter days, it feels so good to just see some sunshine!
ReplyDeleteYou are so creative. That wreath looks great! Especially in the sunlight ;)
I'm seeing lots of tiny white lights .... Thrift store finds are fun.
