All in a Days Work...

OK...I'll be honest...
this is gonna be short and sweet...
you see I was just invited to join the
{Pinterest} fun...
and now I am hooked and want to get back to pinning.
I do, however, feel an obligation to share with you
the treasures that I acquired while I was
out and about today!!!

OK...I didn't so much acquire this first one...
as I did avoid running through it...
I know that it is bizzare...
but one of the things that I love so much about
the fall season is the dramatic increase in
spiders and webs that I find in our front garden.
{Hey, better in the garden than in my living room...right?}

Again...I didn't acquire this one either...
but I do love and appreciate that I am
BLESSED to see this gorgeous mountain almost each and every day!!!
May not {love} her so much if she decides to 'wake-up' one day...
but in the mean time,
I remain in awe of her glory and perfection!!!

OK...
Back to Business!!!
I had not been able to persue finding treasures as often as I would prefer these past few weeks...
weddings...
chores...
etc...
etc...
etc...

So I got up this morning...
bright and early...
{8a.m. ish}...
ran through Starbucks for my drink
....and off I went.

Do you love this???
I love this!!!
I loved this so much that I asked a man
to literally pry it off a garage wall.
I couldn't help myself...
Isn't she charming???
I love her hinges!!!
So did Bri...
I almost had to grab her a small paper bag
when I introduced them to each other

I can't seem to pass up anything that
even remotely resembles something
'school house.'
OBVIOUSLY...

As soon as I saw this...
I immediately thought to myself...
laundry room!!!
I know it's not a very practical place to have something fun and funky...
but lets face it...
laundry is NOT going to do itself...
I've left it to see...
and it didn't.

Now this little gem...
I see in a large bathroom with a
wire basket-o-towels on the bottom...
and a few hand towels draped over the top.
What do you think?
Oh...and did I mention that she has the
{dreamiest} casters?

And I was shocked when I decided that I needed this...
you see it's an old solvent tank...
{something mechanics use to clean and degrease parts}
My dad being a mechanic...
I have seen plenty of these growing up...
...but NEVER before did I think to myself that this would either make a modern potting table...
...or a unique place to store bottled beverages for a BBQ.

And these following treasures are not for sale...
YET?!?!
With my hubbs being a hunter...
my 6 year old thinks that deer are pretty cute...
and gasps at the sight of them.
Imagine my little happy dance when I came across
ALL OF THESE at a sale today.
I gave her a few and nonchalantly put the rest away for Christmas.

Did you venture out this weekend?
What did you find?
Back to {pinning}!
Loves,
{Tinell}
