Thinking outside the box...

A few weeks ago, my sister-in-law and I went garage sale hunting. It was an off day to say the least. I only found one item and only spent a quarter on it. Most people would've passed this by, which I'm sure several did. But, since I have been in blog overload lately, I knew exactly what I wanted it for when I saw it. Here it is...


Yep.. It's pretty worn out and dusty! So, what exactly did I see in this "treasure" you may ask? Why I saw this:


Much better looking with a coat of paint and glaze added!! I have seen, several times might I add, where people have taken trays like this one and added them to the top of their cabinets for decoration. My plan? To do just that! It will look so cute above our new kitchen cabinets with my big chunky white wooden star sitting in front of it!

The best part... it was only .25 cents!!
