| This T2T was so simple -
Picked up this table and this garden lantern out on the neighborhood trash heaps.
Black wrought-iron spray paint, washed the glass, and there ya go!

| My son helped with the painting and then some dirty bird pooped on the lantern - he was livid! I might use copper paint on the roof of the lantern.

| I have never seen anything so cool in the trash. I love the way a can of paint can transform something! Those look so good. |

| Good pickings Pryo, and I even like the items before painting too. My neighbor said she was going to put her swing from the yard out to the curb, but asked me if I wanted it first. Of course, I'll take anything whether I could use it or not. Seems I just can't sa NO. That is how I became a pack rat. My story and I'm sticking to it. |

| My sister is always giving things away to the veterns thrift store, she has learned a long time ago to stop asking me if I wanted something because she knows how bad I am at hoarding things. You just can't let wonderful things end up in the dump. We get a lot of pleasure of turning T to T. Now Mondays I go to a thrift store and I honestly try not to add more stash to my already huge pile, but temptation gets the best of me. |

| pyromomma,
Geez, I wish I found that lantern and stand... man that is the kind of stuff I am always looking for.
I am a big curbside shopper. You can find good stuff!! And of course the price is always right. ;-)
Have fun,
Helen |
