If you follow my blog, you already know I love ornate metal. However, I also have a passion for smooth industrial metal as well. Like these three containers I picked up at the flea market today.
I love the sleek circular shape, and the labels. They were $5 for the set of three.
In addition to the usual furniture, which I will be sharing this coming week, my finds this past weekend seemed to fall into three categories. Aside from the wicker covered bottles at the end of my last post,
I also seemed to find metal everywhere I went. This chair was a thrift store find.
This wire basket and the two galvanized pieces were in the backyard at an estate sale.
Great old green paint on this watering can.
A vintage shopping cart.
My last category was anything stone like and heavy. This vase is over three feet tall, and weighs a ton. I picked it up at a garage sale. Well, I had help. The price...$4.
This cement statue is over four feet tall with her pedestal. This was my husbands find.
OK, back to my redesigns. I have lots to share this coming week. See ya soon.

Love all your finds Rosemary! (as always *winks*) I have the same lady statue that your hubby found. Vanna
ReplyDeleteWell I'm on a metal kick too! Especially like your wire basket. Metal seems to be turning up a lot lately. There are so many way to style it. You have a bunch of great pieces!
ReplyDeleteI love everything you do, but my back does not like stone. $5 for the tins.....WOW
ReplyDeleteCarol
LOVE the stack of metal containers - $5 - are you kidding me - awesome!
ReplyDeleteOooh, wonderful finds!! Can't wait to see how you'll use them all! I love the metal containers.
ReplyDeleteFunny about the white pretty wrought iron chair....we just picked up a little cafe set for our patio this weekend and it's black wrought iron (but nowhere near as ornate). I was wishing it were white. Then I almost bought a jar of white gesso in Hobby Lobby yesterday but had to restrain myself! You are rubbing off on me! (No pun intended.) Thanks for linking up at my party. Have a great week.

My fave find this week is the vintage shopping cart!
ReplyDeleteDo you haggle much? You find the neatest things and get them for such great prices. I like everything but i LOVE the flat tins with the labels...and at such a low price. Thanks for sharing (even if you do make me jealous).
ReplyDeleteI enjoy your work!
