Hello friends,
I was just lying in bed last night thinking of the upcoming shows we are going to be doing and all we want to accomplish before these shows!! I was also thinking of how we got into what we do....it all started with the LOVE of the OLD!!!! I have always had this passion for old things...it always seemed so rewarding giving the "OLD" new "LIFE"! My passion I believe was passed down from my mom who took us to garage sales and was quite handy at repurposing items & still is today!! My love for decorating & a BUDGET also contributed to my collections of old/repurposed items because it is affordable & I like to change things up!!! If I always bought NEW we would be Broke!!! I often have people tell me who come into our home that it has such a "homey" feel to it!!! I believe that homey feel comes from all those Old/repurposed items that have been given a new Lease on life!! I love when pieces have a story behind it..sometimes you know the story & sometimes you can just look @ a piece and imagine where it has been and the journey it has taken to get to it's new home!!! Below our just a few of the "old" items I have used in my home & gave them "new" life!!!
I hope you enjoyed the little taste of my Love for the "OLD" & how I incorporate it into my home!! I have to admit the old FORD truck is not a part of my home, but it does have my heart!!! It was my grandpa & grandma's & my mom and her sister used to drive it as well. The old truck is ever so wondrous out @ my Grandparents farm just waiting to have new life again!!! If it ever does get a new lease on LIFE I would not hesitate for one moment on getting behind the wheel!!!! Hope you have a happy day!! We have got to get busy for Beautiful Junque's show in Frazee this Saturday October 27th @ Frazee Elementary school 10am-3pm!! See you soon!
Blessings,
Alicia & Carol
