Second Chances
Hello and Welcome
So glad you stopped by today!
Today's Topic - Second Chances:
Do you like to reuse, recycle or repurpose items in a way different from its original purpose? Once you have created your reimagined piece, do you get excited and just love it?One of my favorite projects revolved around where I keep my pots and pans. Where do you keep yours: in a cupboard, drawer, or do they hang? If you look on Pinterest, you can find many inspirations for hanging pots and pans - a pot rack.
My Pot Rack - What item I gave a second chance
I have been reusing, recycling and repurposing for years. It all started when I was young and didn't have much money and had to be resourceful to create decor for our home. My grandmother always told me, "necessity is the mother of invention". So true when funds are limited but your need is great like when you have limited space in your kitchen.Many years ago, I saw a vintage window grate in an antique store and immediately envisioned it as a pot rack.
Come and see how I gave the window grate a second chance

Saucer Picture Plate with Pearls

| Vintage Saucer as Picture Frame |
I am always looking for objects to use to display pictures, especially ones of the grand kids. After I had finished creating the mosaic shelf for my spare bedroom, I wanted to place a picture on the shelf, but not in an ordinary frame.
