Hammering out frustration and recent finds

I have been hammering out my frustration lately!!

What have I been hammering on you ask?

I have been making

hand hammered Garden Markers.

I saw this idea online and decided I wanted to try it.

LOVE how they turn out and if you are frustrated

about anything at all, it just makes you feel better

when pounding the silverware! lol

All tagged and ready to take up to my booth

at the antique mall.

Spoons, forks, knives...

so much fun. Yes, there were mistakes along

the way and some silverware that is not fit to show,

but overall they turned out fine. I learned fast what

to do and what not to do.

Now I am on a mission to find more old silverware.

I have been looking for some pretty goblets/glasses

and fell in love with these that I found at the Goodwill

last week. They remind me of a upside down bee skep.

Another recent find. A Sheidan silverplate butter dish.

I thought it was a steal at 5.50 , but

when they rang it up, it was on sale for

$3.85! It even has a removable glass dish inside.

Last , but definitely not least

I found these lavender soaps made in France too.

They smell heavenly! $3.00 for this box.

Oh the little things that make me so happy.

Have a beautiful Tuesday!

Silverware and Swarovski ~

I have been working on silver spoon ornaments

lately and have sold a few in my booth

at the antique store~

My white feather tree really makes them stand out ~

Blessings today to you and yours ~
