Weekend Inspiration DIY Projects

What do you think of when you see a thermos?  Hot soup, warm beverages, and of course a great tailgating accessory.  A customer came into the store today and shared an idea on what to use them for other than the common uses.

How about a vase?  He told me of an arrangement he did for his 50's themed guest bathroom and how awesome it turned out.  He used plastic flowers, but you could also use real ones.  He didn't use any paint at all on the canister portion of it, suggesting you could to hide any visible rust.

Perhaps the next time you deliver flowers to someone or need to come up with a housewarming gift, look for a thermos and had a little twist to the arrangement.

Do you have any other creative ideas using the thermos?  Feel free to post your pics on my facebook wall of your recycled (vintage themed) projects.  I'd love to see what you've come up with.

Valentine windows

Here are my new windows for Valentines day. Inside the store you will find lots of vintage valentines to give to you sweetheart!

Mother Nature Strikes!!

 Mother Nature has decided that we will be closed today (Friday 1/20).  Hopefully she will settle down and let us open the rest of the weekend.  If you don't see another post, plan on us being open then.  Sorry for any inconvenience.  Enjoy the beautiful scenery outside!!!         Shirley

Gone!

Bye bye enamel top cupboard!  Also went to a good home.  Still have some bargain mark-downs left, don't wait too long!

The store is open!

I finally got my etsy store open this weekend, and even had my 1st sale the same day!  I'm excited to get more and more items listed.  Does anyone know where I could buy more time in my day????  The items I list are ones that I have never had in the store so you don't know what you may be missing.   Check-it-out!   Shirley

New store to open soon!

I am getting ready to open my on-line store All That's Vintage on Etsy.com.  I will have it opened no later than tomorrow.  I am offering some great vintage items.  So if you can't get to Galena, you can still shop by going to Etsy.com and go to the store called All That's Vintage. Got lots to list so I have to go now.    Shirley

Bye Bye pink chair!

The pink chair is gone. It went to a good home.  Thanks and I hope you enjoy it Victoria!
There are plenty more bargains on the remaining furniture in the store.   Shirley

Clearance sale and others!

  

Here are a few thing that I have on clearance.  Trying to make space for more goodies to bring in.  Perhaps I need a new and larger store!???!!!  I've been wanting to give the store a new look after the holidays and some of the larger items are "getting in the way" if you know what I mean.  So I have discounted them quite a bit for someone else to enjoy.  First come, first served so don't wait.             See ya!
