The Rummage Sale Box



Has been covered! It is new and refurbished.  

Heres what it started as.

Then we ripped tissue paper and covered the drawers and outsides in decoupage.




Poked a hole through the tissue where it covered the hole for the handle.

Found a couple corks and screws.  Cut the corks in half.

Painted them white.

Waxed the rail-type things inside the box.

Painted the whole thing with varnish.


Let them dry.


pretty, huh?

Yesterday was thursday.


A list of what made it such an exciting day!
1. I had Amy over.  
2. My brother had a friend over. (Amy nick-named him Squirrely!)
3. We went to Slappy Cakes.
4. We went to a rummage sale.
5. We rode too small, old bikes down to the rummage sale to donate.
6. We refurbished what we bought at the rummage sale.

so first.  Slappy Cakes.  That was fun but sadly i forgot to bring my camera!!! For those of you who don't know, slappy cakes is a fun place where you pick out your pancake batter, toppings, and fixings for inside and make your own pancakes right there in front of you! Its a lot of fun and yummy! between the five of us, we got some pretty crazy stuff to put in them.  Bacon, lemon curd, cheddar cheese, and roasted mushrooms. 
amy says that the cheddar cheese/mushroom pancake is delicious!

second.  The rummage sale.  We (amy and i) spent $6.50 on stuff. 

Organizational things.

Oregon Duck Dice!

Xmas tree topper for december, and decor for my room the rest of the year!

can always use a shaker thing!

More organizational containers.

And a set of drawers.  That you will hear MORE about in a later post.

There was another two votives that Amy got as well.
