Score! :)

Do you know what you're going to use the frame for?

I really like the headboard and footboard too! Will you use them in the garden?

[gypsymarie]

long story about the bed...its mine and one day i will have a mattress on it again. ha! the railings are rigged and its a pain and my queen mattress is so high it doesn't look right. i'm on a mission!

the frame will probably get a mirror and put up for sale!

I love the idea of using that blueprint holder for wrapping paper! I got a wrapping paper holder (plastic) for christmas once and it falls over all the time. piece of crap!

[gypsymarie]

i just need a good place for it! and MORE wrapping paper. i picture it in my shop with vintage wallpaper and tall skinny things. sigh...

I hope I'm not treading on sensitive ground but what ever happened to your baking shop? If it's too poopie of a subject then you definitely don't need to answer!

[gypsymarie]

haha, you can always ask or say anything to me!!
just after going to the business classes and meetings we realized getting money would be impossible! plus, we got realistic and knew we didn't know enough about baking to jump into it!
she moved back to savannah anyways...

the blueprint holder or whatever it is, is an awesome score. Using it for wrapping paper is a great idea and will look so pretty! You're gonna need a storefront before you know it with all your great finds.

[gypsymarie]

oh, i would LOVE a storefront and i'm looking into it. my bakery didn't work out so i need a dang shop of some sorts! ha!

The 6ft tall frame is fantastic! The blueprint holder is a great find, very unique. It amazes me what ppl will put out on the street.

i think the same thing when i'm loading thrift finds into my car. how could someone have just donated this?! its nicer than trashing it, but geez! i'm just not that kind.

Love the drawer hardware and the solid wood legs--they could really come in handy someday! I'm interested in what you'll do to the table top frame--you could staple canvas to paint on or fabric or something to the back and make it some sort of crazy window art! Hmmmm, ideas. :-)

[gypsymarie]

haha...yeah the ideas are running through my head!
i sell vintage furniture and am slowly learning how things are built. i am working on my first upcycled custom piece now with an old cabinet, mid century legs and vintage wallpaper. wish me luck!

Best of luck dahling! ;-)
