Finds

We took another trip to Urban Ore this weekend, It's become a ritual. There is so much to find!

One of the first things I saw was this:



Sadly the price tags were totally fair but at $135.00 each. I couldn't afford them.

I picked up a couple things, one of which I will go in to detail about in the future. Another was this:



A metal first aid box for $2.00. It has some very old and moldy/gross supplies in it. I got it home and went at it with soap and water and a Magic Eraser (greatest cleaning product ever).





It fits all our medical stuff perfectly! I love it. Before they were all just in miscellaneous boxes tucked here and there.

Then there was the thing that got away, hmph.
I spotted this lady with a large orange tin with beautiful teal and yellow flowers on it. It's like this thing was made for ME. I complimented her on it and she said "Oh yeah I was thinking about not getting it at all, but now that someone likes it I have to have it!"

Damn! My husband said to go home and etsy/ebay it. Right, how am I supposed to track down some anonymous tin in a thrift store?

Well I did, on my first try, I love etsy!

  1. That tin is a beauty! I'm dreaming of those Eames Chair desks. That is such a good price!
