I've been slowly changing out anything "new" and replacing it with "old" junky character...this is a spot I've looking to re-do for a while now. Finally took out that "newer" store bought cupboard and replaced it with these repurposed wine boxes.
Because the wall sticks out there behind the "stool", I needed something shallow. I tried MANY boxes and drawers before finally finding these wine boxes and they were the perfect fit.
Already filled 'em up...
Do you see an angel???
Every room needs a "cloche" of some sort, right?
Those are my kiddos...I like to remember when they were that little.
I made these little tealight holders by gluing mini jello molds to insulators.
And these pedestal bowls by gluing bigger Jello molds to light fixture bases. All stacked up...
Bathroom fixture handles make unique and kind of silly bowl fillers.
Ahhh...that's better, now what's next???

At $7 a piece these shelves are definitely "thrifty"
I am inspired by all things old and discarded.
And...
Enjoy your day!
looks fab!
