My next find was this old spice rack. At least I think it is a spice rack and for 50 cents. Uh yeah, I knew I could do something with it. I thought I could put some more bowls up there for display, but we will have to wait and see. I see great potential with this puppy!!
This one "might" be my favorite find or maybe it is my last picture. Anyway, I thought this one would look great painted a prim color with some cuties displayed on the top and maybe some sweet annie sticking out of one of the drawers. I am definitely going to look for new knobs. For a price $2.92 - well, you couldn't find something that cute in a prim store for that price. A little sanding, some black, yellow ochre or barn red paint and some new knobs and it will be prim perfect!!
I have been looking for new molds for pantry cakes and I found another one so I had to pick it up.
AND........ This is probably my largest purchase for the day. This ended up being around $4.00. I don't remember the exact price, but it was probably closer to $5.00 then $4.00. Anyway, as I sit here and ramble on, I get quite excited just looking at this wonderful beauty. I am pretty sure that it was used as a medicine cabinet which would be a nice idea, but I am just not sure I will use it as a medicine cabinet. I was even thinking that I could take off the door and it would be cute just like that, but then I realized that I liked the door too much to take it off. So, I guess I will just have to play with it a little bit and try to figure out what I want to do from there. I should have taken a picture of the inside, but it has 2 shelves and then that little area at the bottom which would look cute holding some sweet annie and some candles or some dried flowers. This beauty definitely has wonderful possibilities. It just needs to be primmed up and decorated. Don't you love it?!? Stay Tuned for the make-overs coming soon. I am sure you all can guess which one/ones I will makeover first. Hmmm, decisions decisions!
I also wanted to let you all know that Cameron's fever is gone. I am just making sure that he rests today and still drinks plenty of liquids. I can clearly tell that he is feeling better. He is currently watching Blue's Clues and screaming at Joe about where the clue is on the wall. He cracks me up!! Anyway, I am just so happy and relieved that his fever is gone and hopefully it stays that way. Nothing worse then having to worry about your little one. Thank you for all your sweet comments regarding my son. I appreciate it very much!! Hope you all have a wonderful week. I will hopefully be back soon with a makeover or two. Which one do you think I should makeover first? You know what..... I will let my prim friends decide which one I should makeover first so go ahead and leave me a comment and let me know your thoughts. Thanks Ladies!!

Great finds. I would work on the 2drawer cubby first. It looks like it wouldn't take very long. I'm all about getting things done quickly. I am a bit short in the patience department!!
We are coming to Columbus this weekend for a little R & R. We have promised the kids for two years to take them down and look around Easton and OSU campus. DH and I go down at least once a year, usually for an OSU football game. (Yeah, it's almost time to start again!!!!), if not twice. I love that town!!! Anyway the kids are looking forward to it. We have told them about Bucca di Beppo. Have you eaten there?? To die for!! I'm drooling just thinking about it. Take care. Have a great day and I can't wait to see the make overs.

Lisa, It is good to hear that your Cameron is feeling better. A good day of rest is a good idea.
Which make-over first?---the two drawer "thingie" that you said was your favorite. I am dying to see that. You will do such a great job with all the things that you got! Be sure to show us.
Friends,
Susannah
Okay Lisa, that's not fair!!! I never find anything great at my TS or GW. :o(
I can't decide which goody I want to see madeover first. So....how about all of them? LOL I guess I'll just have to wait and see which one you choose.
I'm glad Cameron is feeling better!
Take care my friend,

Great news about cameron!!! You know how to work that GW shop. I made my first trip to one last week, took lots of boxes of goodies to them. I'm sure you would find something to re-make!!! You have definitely got an eye!! Well, I would like to see the spice shelf primmed up first. Have fun with all your goodies! Sherrie

Hi Lisa~ I'm so glad to hear that your little Cameron is feeling better.
Those are some great finds! I can't wait to see your After pictures.
Hugs~ Birgit
That little cabinet is awesome - what a find for the price!
I have almost the same wood shelf with 2 drawers! And mine is super heavy, too! I found mine at a fleamarket earlier this year for $10 so you did great on yours! I posted it on A Primitive Place forum when I got it and another gal has one almost identical! She said she got hers at Gordmans. LOL Here I thought I got some old piece or something.
I love your other finds as well! Have a great weekend!
