    I think that green metal rabbit is a hose mount.

    • @COCupid
      @COCupid 2 місяці тому +6

      Yes, missing the metal plate on the front part that holds the hose in place that's why the other side is void of bolts.

    A fun decor idea is to add Little Golden books in a topic related to the holiday (Easter, St Patrick’s Day, Flag Day, Thanksgiving, etc). Just lean the book against existing pictures or add to a basket you already have out. These can be picked up at the thrift store for less than $1.
    Also, I always go to my thrift store on Tuesday which is senior discount day of 30% off. Find out your senior day and take advantage of it.

  • @lisaneinast4425

    That can Leah picked up looks like a contact paper from the 80’s that I used in my Preschool to cover tables. Perfect for a crayon, marker holder

    I smile as I see you holding back a squeal as you find such neat items....I feel like that too, when I thrift and come across something I love! Such fun. I often think that everything in a thrift store has a "story" and can't help but wonder what the story is.......

    The cover sitting loosely on the Singer sewing machine is not for that treadle machine. The treadle machine drops down into the cabinet when stored, therefore, not needing a cover. What that is - is a cover for a 'portable' sewing machine from the 1930's that clamped onto a base, that held the machine, that was not much larger than the circumference of the cover. I have my grandfather's (yes, grandfather was a seamstress) 1911 treadle and I have his 1930's Western Electric Co 'portable' machine. 🧵🪡

    @lynnetrue4103 2 місяці тому +9

    I like setting metal trivets or baking cooling racks over metal pie tins in the bottom of a basket and setting a plant on top. 1. It lifts the plant up if the basket is too deep. 2. Any water from watering the plant drips into the pie plate and evaporates humidity to the plant. Works great

    Leah, The pattern on that old time crayon container looks exactly like contact paper I had in 1981 to decorate my dorm room. Can you tell if it is covering the tin or if it is a pattern printed directly on the metal? Wondering if it is covering an old coffee tin. Fun memory!
