Time for White Wednesday again??
Oh my, I am having trouble keeping up these days,
but I did find a few white things to add this week.
the dog days of summer and that the roses
in the picture are full and lush and abundant.
I have had two of these iron chairs without seats just
sitting around for years...just sittin' and doing nothing!
Hubby and I picked them up at a garage sale and they
were a brownish gray iron. I got out my spray paint
and went to town. Spraying until my poor little
finger hurt. lol. Then I plopped them over my
two fairy rose bushes and love the look.
Now I do realize they will look better next year, but I just had to try it anyways. Loving how they turned out!
I purchased this cast iron roses sign online last year...it is definitely a favorite!
The next few items are goodies that I purchased while up in Marshall, Michigan last weekend. I did not spend a lot of money at all, but sure had a fun time. This tin has a metal easel on the back of the lid so you can just stand the lid up if you want to. It was going to go in my booth today, but I forgot it!
and kept picking it up trying to decide what I would do with it.
I finally purchased it for $5 and love it. The lady who sold it
said it was a placemat (it has cork on the back), but said
women have been picking them up to use as a mouse pad.
Neat idea, but I think it is rather large for that.
This was the first thing I purchased in Marshall.
It was on the sidewalk sale and it was only $5.00 too.
{notice a $5 theme running here??}
I was flabbergasted at the price. I know the price of
wood because hubby does a lot of woodworking and
he could not make it for that price.
more. Nope $5.00! yay! {I thought it had probably been
filled with goodies that were $5 each...lol}
It is now in my booth filled with goodies.
I thought about leaving it home and putting this in it...
or this...
kinda cutsie too...
...but my booth won out and it is there for now anyways.
gentleman outside that owned the store and he told
hubby that they purchase different items for display
every year and then sell them at the sidewalk sale.
Yay for me...in the right place at the right time!
I did get another neat display item for $5.00 too
that I was just as shocked about, but will share that
after a coat of white paint.
It has four wheels...and is so darn cute!
Happy White Wednesday! Please visit Kathleen over at
Faded Charm again today for more beautiful posts.

Beautiful treasures! Five dollars can get a lady some very neat stuff! Lovely pieces!
Sounds like $5.00 is your lucky price! I love your goodies, Sandi. I love the display piece oh and that chair with the roses sign is fabulous! Love the way they go together so well. Happy WW. That would be one big mouse pad but it's darling, you'll find a great use for it. If nothing else, photo ops for your Etsy store!

I love the chair and all your white treasures!!
The white chair looks amazing over the flowers! What a fantastic idea that is!!! You have a lot of willpower putting the little display shelf in your booth, I don't think I could've parted with it!
Happy WW:)
Hi Sandi,
I really love your wooden display organizer! Unbelievable at just $5! I would have to hang on to that one for sure! And I also love the French patisserie picture. And your chair and roses are such a neat idea! How fun!
Sandi I adore your white chair trellis! I had to save it in my inspiration file for future reference- it is absolutely charming!!

What darling views of that chair! So full of charm--Jacqueline
I thought you said you were having trouble finding whites! LOVE them all!!
Lovely white Wednesday. Great buys, and I love your chairs over your roses.
Love the chair with the roses coming up thru it. I have an antique green iron bench that does the same thing! Happy WW

oh what great finds, I love the little cubby, I would fill it with vintage papers and letters. I love shelves that look like a mail or hotel key holder.
Can't wait to see what else you picked up.

Wow that shelf is amazing, wouldn't it be great in a studio too, for all those supplies!

Great finds, Sandi! I particularly like that shelf..seems perfect for displaying flower frogs and cast iron birds. And the chairs with the flowers peeking through...just delightful!

Hi Sandi~ Looks like your certainly were in the right place at the right time! All of your purchases are wonderful. Wonder if you couldn't frame the placemat with a black frame?? I think that would be cool looking.
Fondly,
