Okay, I hit it great at Goodwill last week. :)
Here's my stash!
All for $25.00
Want to know what I'm going to do with it all?
Well that black, funny looking stand that I have no idea what it's suppose to be (maybe a wine rack??) is going to be this......
I turned it upside down and decided to mount it on the side of the house for a water hose hanger. I've been wanting one that looks almost identical to this at Tuesday Morning, but it was something like $26.00!!! This was 3 bucks and I think it looks just as good.....
What do you think? :-)
(sorry about the shadows - it was dark......silly ol' flash!)

The old black lamp in the picture is going in my son's room...he begged me for it because he said it reminded him of this......
I see what he means....
I brought it home and scrubbed it down and repainted it black and had it in his room within the hour! I am impatient to get things done!
Here it is in his room......
(Please ignore the price tag on the pencil sharpener! :-o)
As for the rest of my goodies, I washed SCRUBBED AND BLEACHED the dishes so I could use them. :)
I'll show you what I do with all the brass items I bought later.....
lets just say they won't be brass much longer.
I'm still trying to figure out what I want to do with the corbel...I'll keep you posted. LOL
Hope you guys are having a wonderful week!

I think it looks great as a hose holder. I have one of those Pixar looking lamps too! I painted mine black as well. Thanks for sharing.
How creative! Love the way the hose holder turned out and can't wait to see what you do with the rest of your loot!
Hi Melissa. I'm loving your new $3 hose hanger. Its gorgeous. I would have never thought of that. Cute Pixar lamp. Now I wonder what you're up to with the other pieces. I'll be watching for it.
Love your finds. The wire thingy looks just like a hose hanger! The lamp looks wonderful!! OOh, and the other things! What are you going to do with these?
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
Excellent use - looks beautiful! Looking forward to seeing what you do with the rest,

Hey! The water hose holder looks amazing! haha It does look like the lamp from "pixar!"
That's so funny we almost have the same bathroom mirror! Mine doesn't have the little arms. I almost bought that one though. I'm going to place the two capiz sconces on both sides of the mirror & I thought that the arms might be too much going on for the sconces lol.
Love the hose holder! Looks fantastic! Don't know if it was supposed to be one or not but it sure seems to be perfect as one! Great eye, I love it!
WOW!! I love what you did with the metal thingie and turned it into a hose holder!! Great job!!

Melissa...I showed my husband what you did with the wine rack and he was impressed! Great idea and so decorative at the same time! Sometimes I get lucky at Goodwill..not always, though. Hope your holiday today is dry...we have been having on and off showers all morning so far. My whole family is coming from Columbus and I need some dry weather for our cookout! ~Hugs, Patti
Lucky you...great finds. I scored a few things on Saturday on the garage sale circuit but I can't share just yet. That hose thingamajing is the bomb! Leave it to you to make a hose hanger look cottagey! Great job. Blessings, Patty
What a delightful looking stash!!! Pure genius on the hose hanger, who would have thought! can't wait to see what you do with the corbel!
God Bless you hun!
Wow, you got some great stuff and the wine rack hose hanger is a genius idea. The Pixar lamp made me laugh, it's cute. So what ARE you doing with the corbel?
You guys got me thinking hard about what I'm going to do with the corbel...I'm still thinking! :-) (could it be that I might just use it as a corbel??~~!!...maybe, I'll have to think on it some more)
Those hose holder is ingenious! Wonderful job.
Very nice finds! The hose holder is awesome! I love a girl who shops at Goodwill! :)

Great finds....just loving your hose hanger. Trish
You could use the corbel as a bookend, or on the wall as a shelf! Mailing your package on Wednesday.....been busy packing to move. Let me know when you get it!! Rhonda
How creative and clever....
Great finds! Your hose hanger is SO creative!
Fabulous finds, you lucky girl. Love the lamp....my little one laughs everytime he sees that Pixar one. It reminds me of that one too. LOVE the hose holder....looks great.
Enjoy, Dana
Love the hose holder idea!!! I just picked up two brass pieces at the Habitat restore to repurpose - can't wait to see what you did with your pieces!
I love how you re-purposed that stand/rack thing! It makes a perfect hose holder and looks great in that nook!
