Well, I survived my garage sale...so hot and humid, but we cleaned out a lot of stuff! It has cooled down a good 20 degrees now
and I am loving it!
Thanks to all of you who left your kind comments on my Collections post...I always love reading what you have to say!
A while back I shared our entryway redecorating project. You might recall our coat rack/bench/shoe storage. I found the bins at Walmart, but wanted to add a little something...
Here is what I started with...
I picked up some vintage metal numbers when I was antiquing at Haupt Antiek Market, for a couple of dollars each...they have a curled rim that simply hangs right on the handle edge.
It's a VERY simple change that adds a little something special! I think they still sell similar numbers in the hardware stores, but even flat numbers could be easily attached with glue or magnets.
Another little change I made was the addition of this fun street sign that I picked up that day, as well.
I LOVE the color...especially with the globes...
Hope you are enjoying the waning days of summer where you live...I feel autumn approaching quickly!
I am joining~
Until next time...
It looks great! You always know the little touches to add a big impact. Love your globe collection!

I was just looking at those bins at Walmart yesterday. I wanted them but couldn't figure out exactly what I was going to do with them (when did that ever stop me?). The labels take them up a notch!
ReplyDeleteI was with you when you bought those and I see you found the perfect place for them. Sorry I missed your garage sale. Had my duty day and Thursday was with grandgirl :)
ReplyDeletewarmly,

ReplyDeleteLove your little extra touches. I wouldn't have been able to resist the sign - and yes, perfect with your globes I agree :)
It all looks wonderful
