Happy New Year Blogland, Bloggers, and Website Visitors!

Welcome to Second Time Treasures which is a page of LilacsNDreams. Always happy to have you visit, say Hi, and share with us all here too. So, how was Christmas for everyone? Good I hope, and I do hope that all were able to celebrate and have a joyous time too. I know some are still celebrating Christmas with all the festivities, and arrangements made to have time with all the family, and friends. Gotta love it, right?:)

Any New Years Eve plans? Not really for me here. Just pretty much at home, on the computer, and trying to get things done for the New Year coming. Organizing, gluing, finishing a few projects, and hoping to complete some so that I can show them here too.  And....to work on packing some more boxes for donations.

I am itching to go Thrifting, and Junking, but am trying to limit myself some too. I need to reduce some of the inventory at home here, and have been boxing some things for donations too. I know after the first of the year some will be cleaning their homes as well. Making room for maybe some things they received, or preparing for spring time too. Not only am I preparing for these things myself, but it looks like we are going to be moving. Out of town, and out of state. Soooo.....I have to narrow some things down a bit. First down sizing a bit which will then help with what I will be packing. Nervous for the move, but yet excited too. The weather will be better for me health wise, but also for me to work on different things more with gluing, and painting too. Also, to be in a different area to attend different flea markets, and to go junking with is exciting as well too. I am anxious for that myself:)

Wish me luck getting some projects done this weekend. Since there will be no contractors around working on the house, banging, and etc....hopefully I can get a bit done. I have a room I need to clear out for some measurements, and for new walls and a closet too. THAT will be a chore in itself! Where to put everything, I don't know yet. But, it will get done:) Take care everyone, and thanks for visiting with Second Time Treasures. Happy New Year! Have fun, enjoy, and be safe all! See you soon.

 

Repurposed Brown Wooden Bowls Painted Pink, Blue, White

Repurposed Brown Wood Bowls Painted Pink, Blue, White

Hello, and Welcome back to Second Time Treasures page for LilacsNDreams! Glad to have you here, and so happy you stopped to see me today too!

Sorry I have been gone for so long from this page. I honestly have been busy with different things. Life, family, busy, busy, deer accident, new car, celebrations, and so on. Just happen to be a busy time for me with many things, and I know there are many of you who can relate to this too. 

Tonight I just finished painting 3 wooden bowls I had gotten when I was out thrifting. The top picture shows the bigger of the bowls that was painted, and I happen to have another one just like it a bit smaller that I threw into the bunch to paint too. So, both of those bowls were painted an Iris Blue for the bigger one, and the other one is just plain white. As for the smaller bowls I painted those a ballet slipper pink color. Aren't they just yummy! Also, you will see a round base that is for one of the cloches I have that I painted too. This one is white as you can see. 

I have 3 more cloches to paint the bases to, but am fighting against weather, and the season right now. They won't take long to do, but it needs to be warm enough for me to be in the garage painting these items. It has been soooo windy here with some beautiful days! The wind finally calmed enough for me to get into the garage the past couple of days to do some painting, and did it feel good to do too!:)

I thank you all for stopping by to see me today, and hope you enjoyed the visit. If you watch my Thrift Store Junkies page you can kind of get an idea of what finds I have gotten while out thrifting, and junking. From that will determine what is offered for sale, and most of the items will be repurposed. I am getting ready to start listing some of my completed items at Artfire. I am having sooo much fun doing this, and happy that I have chosen this path with creating. Thanks again for visiting everyone, and see you again soon.
