Estate Sale finds

The contemporary floor lamp is great because it lights up for reading and really brightens up the room like a halogen lamp. The Pennyslvania House loveseat was one of two great pieces of furniture that I tried to load up in my stationwagon. The legs would not come off to fit. The nice person who sold me the loveseats offered her husband's truck to deliver them right to our house!

Garage sale finds...

I found the brass, mirror and glass shelf for all my colored glass that I have collected over the years and they go beautifully together..I love the colors and assorted shapes!

Embellished garage sale treasure

We found a figure of a person made up of nuts, washers, nails and screws looking at microscopic slide at a garage sale. I glued him on a colorful square plate, added a couple of colored pieces of glass to his desk, and mirrors for his microscope and slide. Addeda cadeuceus to his tie and  a velvet embroidered circular chair back to a washer and glued a sign with a test tube charm. Then, glued fabric texts, and  wrote "Consults" on a gold ribbon a pad and glued a science book on the desk.

I also cut up his name from an old credit card and made a nameplate for his desk.

Turns out the person who owned it prior to the sale, knew the recepient!

Before adding all the embellishments, it looked like the pictures below:
