The Cabinet Maker and I had a few hours to ourselves on Saturday. We went grey paint hunting. I am having an inner struggle with myself trying to find the right color of grey paint. I believe we hit every home store in our area. This is what we do on dates.
We usually end up at Home Depot. Does anyone else do this?? Pathetic.
. To show for it, I currently have a ridiculous amount
of grey swatches taped to my bedroom wall.
Stay tuned for more on the greyness.
Since we were out, I persuaded him to stop at Goodwill.
I caught him on a good day because this usually isn't his thing.
He relented because I'd buttered him up with Home Depot and all...
We stuck gold. At least a tiny bit.
The ticket roll is for scrapbooking - fab find at $1.99. Love the blue.
I spotted the old suitcase and did a happy dance. $6.99.
The medical supply jars were a super steal at $1.99 each.
When I saw all 3 jars, I'm pretty sure I gasped out loud.
The suitcase will be part of a TV/entertainment set up I am working on.
I cleaned up the jars and put them in my linen cabinet.
I can't stand commercial packaging, so If I can put it in a jar, in it goes.
I opted for nail files and lotion in the Tongue Depressor jar.
(we needn't be depressing.)
Cabinet Maker picked out a vintage bun warmer.
Or should I say bread roll warmer...
(his buns are warm enough.)
I crack myself up.
Happy Monday.
xo Jeanne.
Hi Jeanne! I am going to paint my kitchen cabinets Martha Stewart's "Sharkey Gray". Have you looked at her paint colors at the Home Depot? She has some very pretty grays!
ReplyDeleteMy husband and I seem to always have "dates" at the Home Depot! Yesterday we went two of them to find countertops! I have to say that it's not the most romantic place, but it can be awfully fun! :) Sometimes we get crazy and go to Lowe's too! lol!
Hope that you have a good trip to California! We just had a huge rainstorm, but the weather is beautiful today! Bradbury is a lovely community, and I hope the move is successful for your mom. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving too!
LOL! You crack me up too!
ReplyDeleteAnd I LOVE going to Lowes or Home Depot with the husband....I get all kinds of inspired!
LOVE that suitcase!! And love what you did with the canister thingies....what a great idea!!
Hope you have a great week!
Lou Cinda :)
OMG...I thought I was the only person that wanted those medical supply jars! I am going to have to scavenge a lot this summer.
