She says my blog reflects the true me and she knows me well, so it pleases me to hear that. One of my favorite things to do is to take an old tray and give it a new life and renewed purpose(kind of like the way we get a new life and purpose for living through Jesus). lynn cockrellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16250601457878656085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-106512285217769944.post-77141564682218693702013-03-24T12:55:35.018-07:002013-03-24T12:55:35.018-07:00Nicole, thanks for stopping by!

It is difficult for me to pass one by that is in decent condition and, especially if it costs under $3. The bistro markers are made to use on chalkboards. The reason I like them so much is that they are neater and easier to use and whatever you put on stays put. You use a slightly damp cloth when you're ready to erase. They are a little pricey, but I get mine at Hobby Lobby and I use the 40% off coupon. I love the idea of using the belt for a strap on a clutch.

Giving trays that you've created to brides as a gift is such a thoughtful and lasting wedding gift.

I think maybe early in the week(Monday) is best for finding things, after people take items left over from yard sales or cleaning out attics and basements, etc. It seems to me prices have gone up everywhere, including thrift stores. Thanks for the comment about the tray I painted. I've got to get busy on my friend's tray. Oh, how I love old linens too! Some day I might do a post on several bed covers given to me by a special lady. <br /><br />I put some candy(taffy)in the little wheel barrow today after reading your suggestion. Thanks so much for stopping by. It is great hearing from you!

There is another one where I shop that is more reasonable. I often find old table linens with pretty details which I love. The crystal wheel barrow you found is very pretty. It could be used in a variety of ways but using it as a candy dish sounds like a good idea.

If I decide against it, I take it back where I found it. <br />Love how you painted the tray. I have done a few of them myself. I want to do a larger one though so I am on the look out for one.<br /><br />Love the cart candy dish!!
