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.

 

Merry Christmas to All Second Time Treasures Visitors

Merry Christmas to all Second Time Treasures Visitors!

Glad to have you here, and that you could stop by quick to visit, and say Hi too! It's Thursday, and just in a few more days the BIG day is here for us....CHRISTMAS! Where did this year go? It has been great blogging with all of you, sharing things, and learning along the way too. After Christmas, and when things calm a bit I will probably be out myself looking at the Thrift Stores, and finding more treasures to work with. Many...like me....will be cleaning out areas to make room for some of the new things they received. 

I wish you all well, and a blessed new year too. May you have a beautiful Christmas. Have fun, enjoy, and be safe Everyone!

                                          MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!!

Welcome to LilacsNDreams Second Time Treasures Blog

Welcome to LilacsNDreams Second Time Treasures blog, and happy to have you here. Glad you found me, and are coming by for a visit. 

I wanted to stop by, and just show you about 3 more pictures of items I have completed with repurposing and upcycling, and hope to be listing to my Artfire Store soon too. I have the pictures done for listing, items weighed, now I just need to do it:) 

This is a simple white ceramic candle holder that was attached to a ceramic small bowl, or cup. I have to look through my ribbons, but think I will add a blue bow to this on the neck of the pedestal yet. Very clean, and fresh looking. Pretty blue coloring too.

 This started out with a candle holder. I then found the little small flower pot, did just a light touch up like with some gold like paint, and in the center of the pot I added some white and brick red like flowers. I then topped it with a glass votive holder from I had taken from a wired candle holder. A mini glass decorative cloche.

These pieces also came together with a green plate, a darker green candle holder with some minor coloring around the base, and neck of it. Then, the balls you see with it were my first to make using some ivory colored lace I had, and some light brown ribbing that is used for sewing with. I rolled them around styrofoam balls to add to this. Nice little piece. 


Trying to do a few different things, and have more ideas for some things with items sitting here to work with. So, keep a watch out for what comes next. I will let you know when these items have been placed to my Artfire Store that I have been selling with too. Hope ya'll enjoyed this. Please know you are welcome to comment, and share with all of us here too. 

Thanks for visiting LilacsNDreams Second Time Treasures, and hope you enjoyed the visit. Have a super creative weekend everyone!:)
