<span style="font-family: Courier New;">I know....not what you thought I'd say? Let me just say this is no place for a girl to go alone. I went CRAZY in the paint section!! I really felt bad though b'c I did kind of feel like I was sneaking around behind his back....you know, not really paying attention to the prices, just grabbing everyTHING i could get my hands on! Imagine my surprise when I thought I had maybe spent 20.00 but it was more like 40.00! I like to compare it with a night out with the girls...you may drink one or two and when you get your bill you realize WOW did I really have that much?? only kidding (I don't do that)...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New;">Ok back to my date.. I had been obsessed with Mandi's projects lately, its like she reads my mind...I will be thinking..hmmm wonder what would happen if you did this...or that...Well next thing you know she has not only done it BUT posted How to's for us Green Horns! She gives you so many ideas and her step by step instructions are easy to read and follow... see <a href="http://vintagerevivals.blogspot.com/2011/05/its-bird-its-plane-its-project.html">here</a>. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New;">With all that said, I couldn't wait to get off work to hit Home Depot (i never thought i'd say that) those of you who know me KNOW how bad I HATED going to that place daily while our house was being built..Anyway, So i print her how to instructions and head out. I get to the paint dept and MY WORD way too much to pick from, so glad the nice man helped me along my journey to find "glaze"! They didn't have the exact stuff she used but the man said "this will work the same" (lets hope). Since its raining out today that means NO yard sales for me. (boo hoo) BUT thats ok, I am not stressing that will just give me MORE time to work on my <strong>GLAZING!! </strong>I am so excited...I hope it turns out ok but you know me I will post it even if it is a big ole mess...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New;">Until then I will give you this to look at, its the last time you will see it this way!</span><br />

Well that wasn't the case for me today! I am worn out.</span><br />

<span style="color: #351c75; font-family: Georgia; font-size: x-small;">Today is our 3yr Anniversary of moving in our house...As in tradition Dad and I always pressure wash the porch. I had been wanting some type of back porch for a year now (we have nothing currently) and what better time to do it than today?!! I figure he build the porch and I would pressure wash... Sounds good and all BUT I can't hardly walk now!</span><br />

<br />
Last spring I did NOTHING, I didn't have the money to buy new chairs, cushions, flowers, etc... My porch looked so sad and I missed watering all my flowers daily. Well not a lot has changed, still don't have the extra money to spend on it BUT I decided I wasn't going to spend another summer looking at my sad porch....SO....................I got me some .97 spray paint and went to town!<br />
<br />
I bought this table years ago at Big Lots, I think I only paid a couple of dollars for it. I was getting ready to take it to the dump and thought why not try to save it!<br />
<br />
This is the table before, so sad.<br />

I normally buy spray paint for wicker, wood, plastic, etc..BUT it is almost 4.00 a can now and I think that is too high. So I bought this and paid .97.<br />

As for now...well I am spending the day pressure washing my porch, I can't wait to get started..Nothing better than a nice clean porch to eat Easter Dinner on!<br />
<br />
I did manage to get most of the stuff off of the porch already....(see below) and NO this isn't a yard sale! I have spent most afternoons this week washing everything.. I have to get started though b'c right now my yard is looking a little redneck!<br />

They commonly grow close together in clumps or mats in damp or shady locations.Well thats the definition that Wikipedia gives...

with that said...now i can continue.<br />
<br />
I got up at 6am with ONE thing on my mind.....My Mantel! As much as I love fires in the Winter time i am really ready for warm weather..which means time for cleaning out months of ash and suet. :(<br />
I had seen a show on HGTV where a gal had painted the inside of her fireplace, I was thinking..hmmm, can't be THAT hard?? Well.......3 pots of coffee and 10hrs later I did it! Granted the "actual" cleaning and painting of the fireplace only took about an hour..My ability to NOT stop until I am 100% satisfied took 8hrs!<br />
When you see something on TV they just always make it seem so easy to do...Well you know, I am sure they have "handymen" to bring them all the supplies they will need..Me on the other hand....my "handyman" was fishing! (smart choice) <br />

Aunt Sandra always came prepared....She brought all her perm rods, combs and perms. <br />
<br />
There would be 10 of us sitting around all us kids would be playing (outside so the grown ups could hear jeopardy) those that wasn't watching TV was in the kitchen playing Scrabble and usually two would be swinging on the porch swing..<br />
<br />
I just wonder how many families still do this? I am sure not many (myself included). Its too easy now..just go somewhere and pay someone to do it, But be sure to take your cell phone in case someone needs you..<br />
<br />
I can't imagine any of our family having cell phones back then. I mean if someone needed you and you wasn't at home chances are you'd be at Grannys! I can remember it like yesterday, anytime someone would call Grannys, Mom would always answer the phone and I could hear her say "well, who is your mother"?? and she'd holler for one of my aunts. <br />
<br />
I am sure that I am not the only one that has stories like this, surly you all have some?<br />
<br />
I am thankful for my childhood and remember the "little" things the most. Its funny how that works...<br />
I hope one day when our kids are older they will have some <span style="color: #274e13;"><em>VINTAGE</em></span> memories.<br />

I took a shower and it hit me............UGH, I was sick as a dog...My legs cramped so bad and I had a fever, this can't be...it's still the opening weekend for yard sales, how could this be happening to me?? I am a good person, I don't deserve this!<br />
So back on the Pj's went and I hit the couch...and when I say I hit the couch...LITERALLY, I was on my couch till 6am this morning..<br />
I prayed it wasn't the flu, I do not have time for the flu, the flu just doesn't fit into my schedule this week! I mean I am not sure if there is a certain time one prefers to be sick but this week it just couldn't happen..TOO much going on!!<br />
I got up this morning and was feeling much better, my fever had broke sometime during the night and my legs was feeling better, I hope it was just a 24hr bug of some sort. <br />
I was really sad about missing the flea mkts, yard sales, etc...BUT I am very thankful to be feeling better today.<br />
I think me and hubby are going on some type of "date" today...maybe I will find a Goodwill on the way...Vintage Freckles and Findshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08611445643754701398noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8289196464605750757.post-81442739662920149322011-03-15T22:21:00.000-05:002011-03-15T22:21:31.610-05:00<div style="text-align: center;">Tonight I was in the mood.....for????

Only to wake up with only one thing on my mind...Putting out my new finds?? NOPE..Redoing James' room! <br />
I had been wanting to get in there and clean for a while now, but one just has to be in the mood b'c its a long process...<br />
Keep in mind his walls are John Deere <span style="background-color: yellow;">yellow</span> and <span style="background-color: lime;">green</span> and I wasn't going to paint again. It was hard to find something to match but I think I finally did..<br />

He doesn't like change...in this pic he is trying to tell me that his stuff has been moved around! Yes, I spend two hours working on it and he is MAD.<br />

<br />
I was really sad removing most of his John Deere stuff, I did keep a few of his favorites out...<br />

I think I will use these in my bedroom..currently the primer is drying on them, can't wait to see how they turn out after I am finished with them..<br />
No worries I will post pics!! (I know you can't wait) lol<br />
<br />
I also bought two cool coffee cups (currently in dishwasher). How come we get addicted to a certain type of coffee cup and it seems that style is the hardest to find? I know coffee drinkers can relate, my Mom keeps a her own coffee cup in my cabinet for when she comes to visit! (wonder where I get my craziness)?? I will post pics of them later..<br />
<br />
Well I have lots to do today..so this post is going to be short and sweet..I will return later with some "after" pics!!<br />

<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: Arial;">For the last 6 Years I thought I had lost my Class Ring, Well guess what......I DIDN'T!!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: Arial;">The other day Chad was cleaning out his gun safe and ask me if he had some of my rings...Well I guess when we moved I had my real jewelry in his safe! Anyone who knows me will admit I don't really care for <span style="background-color: yellow;">REAL</span> jewelry. So...I would guess that's why I didn't miss it that much, I prefer the Big..Fake...Tacky Jewels!</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: Arial;">I had thought about the ring a while back and was too scared to ask Mom if she had it put up some place, you know this ring has lived in several places!! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: Arial;">Which brings me to the point of my post.... Think about all the places your class ring has been...</span><br />
<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: Arial;">lived in different houses? Some ex b/f has it? I think it will be fun to share with each other and I am sure we will have a lot of laughs!!!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #20124d; font-family: Arial;">I will never forget the day Mom and I went to LuMac @ Oak Ridge Mall! I was sooooo excited to get to pick it out. I knew I wanted GOLD not silver (which is hard to believe) and Mom let me design it the way I wanted. I have always HATED my birthstone (diamond) its so blah. (maybe this is the reason I think diamonds are bad luck??) anyway...back to the story...I wanted the stone to be blue (you know..Go Big Blue)! </span><br />

<span style="background-color: black; color: #cccccc;">After looking everywhere for a pair of shoes identical to the pair I have I had no luck..so what's a gal to do? </span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: #cccccc;">I got to thinking about the "good ole days" and on Sundays my Dad would always shine his shoes before church. I was at Walmart today and found this stuff!! It was less than 3.00 and can I just say OMG what a find!!! I do believe I have shined every pair of shoes in my closet (well maybe not every pair but I only have so much time) You can buy sponges for Brown or Black shoes..BUT this one said "for any color" so I figure I got more bang for my buck.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: #cccccc;">So to all my fellow thrifters out there, the next time you see a pair of shoes at a thrift store that are a little scratched up...have NO fear, for a few dollars you will have them looking good as new again!</span>Vintage Freckles and Findshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08611445643754701398noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8289196464605750757.post-36667741113127204912011-01-17T18:43:00.000-06:002011-01-17T18:43:25.510-06:00Goodwill=BADwill<span style="background-color: #cfe2f3; color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I hadn't been to Goodwill in awhile...I decided since I was off work today I'd go...well, that was a BIG mistake! I hadn't been since way before Christmas I decided then that they are getting too high. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: #cfe2f3; font-family: Verdana;">I get there a little after 4pm and was trying to hurry b/c I thought they closed at 5pm. I noticed they are open till 6pm :) I was a happy girl, I had two hours to take my time and look at everything in there (due to their poor lighting that never happens) I think they have it so dim in there so folks will give up and leave and they get all the bargains! But back to my adventure, I even got me a buggy (I knew I'd get too much to carry) 1hr and 40min later I walked out of there with the same stuff I walked in with..NOTHING! They have got to be kidding if they think I will pay 8.99 for a white t-shirt, I mean really?? You can shop JC Pennys cheaper than that! Its really sad that a few months ago you could take 20.00 and come out with 10 bags full of stuff. I know its not the employees fault but I find myself giving them that "look" when I notice something is too expensive! I am sure they could care less but it makes me feel better.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: #cfe2f3; font-family: Verdana;">Maybe when they see that the store is so full and nothing is being bought they will lower their prices, the "half off" days are not even deals anymore. When they have a broken Tupperware bowl and ask 3.99 for it.....something is WRONG!</span><br />
<span style="background-color: #cfe2f3; font-family: Verdana;">I guess I will just have to stick to my local Salvation Army they still have great prices.</span>Vintage Freckles and Findshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08611445643754701398noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8289196464605750757.post-50446528245286357462011-01-04T21:26:00.000-06:002011-01-04T21:26:28.536-06:00Hoarder? I think NOT!After recently watching the show "Hoarders" on A&E I decided it was time I started being more organized.<br />
I just can't help it though...I try to buy only the stuff I NEED but its much more fun to buy the stuff you WANT! While I admit I do have stuff I really don't need I just can't part without it. If you came in my house you would see all kinds of stuff on my kitchen counters...but only the stuff everyone else has..you know, Vintage Ice grinder, Vintage metal Premium cracker container, Vintage Metal Canisters, about 50 old egg beaters, mashers, grinders, Old metal egg basket...and I could go on and on and on! I think about getting rid of this stuff and it kills me, all my vintage stuff means more to me than any new thing could. I am pretty sure each piece will also come with a funny story (almost getting in a fight to get it, getting cussed out) you know just another day at the Yard Sales!<br />
I am sure when I am dead and gone none of this stuff will mean anything to anyone but that's ok, those who know me know how much I love old stuff. <br />
With all this said...my point of this post was to "show" I was trying to be more organized!! Again I forgot to take a BEFORE pic!! (I will learn one day)<br />

It really did drive me crazy but I had no place to put them. Until........I went to the Family Dollar yesterday...<br />

I had been looking online for something like this and the cheapest I found was around 60.00. <br />
So in the end buying this "new" item at such a great price still gave me the same kind of thrill I get when I buy something for a good price at a Thrift Store or Yard Sale.<br />

<span style="background-color: purple; color: #ead1dc; font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><em>Funny how you can hear a song and it reminds you of when you was a kid, I just heard the song from The Facts of Life TV show....I can remember Saturday mornings my sister would always watch it and I hated it (i was missing my cartoons!) I remember when I started getting older it being my FAVORITE show! Its just funny how stuff always comes back around. I wanted to be like Blair so much. When I see the shoe now i crack up at some of the stuff they wore and those 80's hairstyles! After thinking about those girls from The Facts of Life I found this website that is really interesting <a href="http://www.sitcomsonline.com/folwhere.htmlI">http://www.sitcomsonline.com/folwhere.htmlI</a></em></span><br />

<em><span style="background-color: purple; color: #ead1dc; font-family: Courier New;">I just hope our kids have those "random" memories, it seems like the TV shows now are just so different (oh no, thats what my mom use to say about our TV shows)...Does this mean I am getting OLD?</span></em><br />
