You are going to be so jealous when you see what came home with me this weekend... hee hee The first find is actually all because of my good friend Tracy - she text me yesterday saying "cream cans on kijiji if interested" - at first i was like, cream cans? huh? But then i searched for it on kijiji and emailed the guy within seconds, as soon as i saw the picture i had to have them, he was asking $10 each or both for $15 so..... hello... of coarse i took both! Tracy must have seen the post as soon as he advertised it because i was the first email and yeahhhh i picked them up last night. Thank you soooooo much Tracy!!!!
Aren't they just perfectly old & rusted? I love them.
So.... today i was driving to my place to finish a client piece and two block from my house was a garage sale - i've been trying to stay away from them because i always bring home too much stuff and when your unemployed you just can't always do that, but for some reason i swear my car just turned into the back alley and parked in front of this driveway. Since i was already there i figured i might as well get out and take a quick look... what could be the harm right? Well instantly i saw them and i'm sure i gracefully ran towards them huh ya right i almost tripped lol. Take a look at these beauties!!! They were asking for $5 each and so my new bargaining self offered $7 for both and she said YES!!!! They are a pretty good size too :)
Tomorrow i will have an awesome before and after to show you!!!

You did well on both buys. Can't wait to see those frames when you are done! xx
I can relate to tripping over in the driveway of someone's garage sale in an effort to get there before all the good stuff goes!lol.
Great finds Linda. I'm sure what ever you do with the frames, they will look amazing.

I think it is probably the hardest decisions to make, keep or sell. Keep one sell one?
Holy Moly girl ~ what beautiful frames! Since you can't decide what to do with them I think I will take them off your hands!!! Ha!
GREAT finds!!!
I can't believe you got these two old milk cans for $15?! Wow! How awesome! And the frames, oh they will be beautiful. You should go into the personal shopping business - you would make a fortune! You certainly have an knack for being in the right place and the right time :-)
Well Cheryl that would be awesome. I love love love to shop and it would be even better if it was someone elses money!! I found some awesome things today and will probably post them tomorrow.
