These are my latest thrifty finds - Full of potential!! (honestly!)
No, it's not junk...it's my treasure!!!
I got all this for 20€!! I'll tell exactly what I bought (from my local charity shop EMMAUS), so brace yourselves 'cause the list is long:
There are 6 shelves complete with their fittings, baskets, utensil holder, old padded picture (I've already transformed this one into a Princess Memory Board), numerous photo frames, wall-hook, a plastic frame that I used for my Red Kitchen, a huge Red Lampshade that I also used for my kitchen, two mirrors, a cheese platter with it's cheese knife, two gorgeous white pitchers, a vintage white serving plate, a wall candle holder, a red candle stick, an art-deco mantle clock, a small decorative wooden house, a wooden spice rack, 2 children's lampshades, 1 dusty medium-sized lampshade, two fugly wooden trays, a battered old pub sign (I already used the embellishment as a fish wall art in my kitchen too) and a key hook...Pheeewww!
There was sooo much stuff....I don't even think all of it is in the photo!!! I was "snappy-happy" as the hubs was still unloading the vehicle.

I intend to attack these items at my own pace, so please bear with me as I post as and when they came out of the "production" line :)
Today, I'll show you what I did to the spice rack. I give you: (drumrolls please..)
Spicy Crafty Storage for....Crafts!! :)
Now, the before and after shots:
This spicy little number was in good condition, just a little dusty, with a few stains. All I did was to clean it, paint with mat white and distress it a little with sand paper to add more "spice" and a little vintage character :)
Then, I added a couple of heart embellishments and a little loop-hook to hang my measuring tape from. Once it goes up on my craft-room wall, I will add a couple of hooks to bottom of the rack.
You could also use it to hold beauty products, postcards, scrapbooking supplies, photos, ribbon spools, or even...spice jars!
If you haven't seen some of my previous re-vamps, the following are entirely for your benefit!! :)
From so, so to...Hellooooo!!!
