Junkin' with Brambleberry Cottage

I had the pleasure of meeting up with Liz from the Brambleberry Cottage again  - this time at the vendors yard sale at Gibson Mills.  She was going to sell some of her stuff and was giving me first dibs..
She has EXCELLENT taste.  I got a great load of stuff...thanks so much Liz.
Isn't this a wonderful frame?   

Lots of sewing drawers for future projects..

 Some china pieces and a small cloche..

 This most wonderful distressed leather train case..I love it. 


 Funnels..and more funnels.  I am going to make light fixtures out of them.





A gorgeous glove box...She did all the hard work on this already.

A metal box - check out the handles on the end - full of lovelies.

 This bucket is metal and well who can say no to hydrangeas? 

 Here is a good shot of all my metal loves. 

 Is this not the coolest thing ever?  A small metal trunk..

 I always look for these metal trays..so many uses.

 Two plaques of musicians

 a gorgeous shabby frame

 I can think of many things that this can become..a memo board, a mirror, etc...

 love chippy, love scales- double win here

 ahh silver and for candles. 

Take a look at all these cool little bottles - my kids were digging the red shovel 

 these just make me smile..boing....

 with the right little shade this will shine- get it shine? haha

white sewing drawers waiting to be transformed...

a white stool just needing some padding and some great fabric then it is done.

 and this is a nesting canister set..Liz had a great idea to paint them then put numbers on them..
 As I said - I hit the mother- load with all her stuff. But can you believe I then left there to go to Clines with the hubby and kids and bought even more treasures. 
Check back to see what I got there later.

  8. I am so excited about your post. I found that exact drawer you show in the picture with all the sweing drawers. The one with the medallion-y looking front. I found mine at a thrift store and grabbed it cause it looked vintage but couldn't figure out what it was. A sewing drawer!!!! You got lots of goodies- thanks for sharing!

  15. Great stuff! I have a stool just like yours. I used Jennifer Paganelli's brown zebra fabric on it, painted it a distressed white. I use it with my vanity. It's not the ideal seat, but it's comfortable and cute. I just used a regular bed pillow for the cushion. It's fluffy delicious!
