Just in case I need to remind you…I love ReStore. I have had so much fun finding inexpensive and charming things to decorate our house. This last week I almost didn’t go but my Better Half called me from ReStore and encouraged me to meet him there…I am sooo glad I did.
My Better Half found the washboard while I spotted the crate and ladder.
The ladder was only $4 and I couldn’t have distressed it better had I done it myself.
The crate was $4 also.
I’ve already put them both to use. The crate is housing this precious snowman family my mom made for me.
The ladder is showcasing my Christmas cards.
I was really excited when I came down this morning and caught my son checking out the cards. I’m not sure he would have paid attention had they not been displayed!
I. Love. ReStore.
Blessings,

Love that the crate is for Colace. LOL. Maybe it’s because I’m in nursing school that I find it amusing. Either way, I love your deals and I love ReStore.

I obviously need to check out this Restore place. So many cute things!

Wonderful finds! My favorite is the crate. (The Colace image is too funny.)

I absolutely love ReStore as well although mine doesn’t have things like washboards! You found some great things. I might have to plan a little ReStore trip of my own once Christmas is over.

I love your inventiveness. I have a ladder (is a clone to yours, you would laugh) that I have been hanging onto….we jokingly refer to it as my ‘inheritance’ got it from my Dad.
Anyhow thanks for sharing, I really must do something with that ladder.
wishing you and yours the very best of the season
