Don't Trash Your Treaures

Don't trash your treasures!  Instead put them to a different use.  An old vintage window shutter might become a unique way to display Christmas cards.  Old glass canisters will take on a new look in the bathroom.  A glass door knob could be just the perfect touch to tie back your curtains.  Display your family photos on a vintage wooden ladder.  Ideas are limitless.  So move it around, paint it, repurpose it, transform it, but definitely "Don't trash your treasures"!

So where did this blog come from?

Well, as I watch my daughters, ages 17 and 19, start to become independent young women ready to take on the world I realize I needed to find my way back into the world. Most of my time an energy has been devoted to being a mom. Approaching the empty nest is sad an exciting. While I choke back the tears as my daughters talk of moving out and moving on, I am told I need a hobby. So here I am. My attempt at fulfilling my days as I "Empty the Nest".
