Last Friday Mom and I enjoyed our day at Round Top/Warrenton. We absolutely LOVE going shopping there when the Market Days are happening in the Spring and the Fall. As I'm walking around my brain is constantly working on the next "project" that I want to accomplish and sometimes my brain goes into overload because there's SO stinkin' much I want to do! This trip I had my mind set on something to add to my scrap room but NOT for scrapping. I wanted a shelf for all my paints, brushes, canvases, and everything else that goes with that. It was near the end of the day and I hadn't really found anything that caught my eye. Of course, I'm all about making a deal when I'm there but hesitant about asking for people to go "cheaper" if something seems priced right. My mom kept saying "what are you looking for" and I really couldn't explain it. On the other shopping front I was successful once again finding some new "flashy and trashy" necklaces that I'm famous for....I absolutely LOVE the ones I got this time.
They are BIG, BEDAZZLED, and UNIQUE!
As we were making the trek back to the lot where we parked we turned the corner down
one isle...I looked up and there it was! I went straight to it and didn't even hesitate that THIS WAS IT! Even more than I had hoped for. It had a couple of extras on it that I hadn't even thought of (hooks on the sides). I got brave and asked the lady if she would go any cheaper and she knocked $10.00 off! IT WAS SOLD! She was all proud of her paint job and while I like the red it's a little too "fire engine" red for me. I'm planning on distressing it a little more to tone it down. As we were driving out of Warrenton, Mom and I drove through some of the side tents and there's this one that I absolutely LOVE their stuff! It's cheap and I always find something. The buckets were perfect for the shelves to organize my brushes and other things. I can't wait to get it in my room and get it all organized. I'll post pictures once I'm done!
While it may seem weird that a simple "shelf" excites me just keep in mind that it doesn't take much to get me excited over scrapping and crafting! Sometimes I'm so giddy over things that it's like a little girl on Christmas morning...it's just part of the obsession.

Cute! I know exactly where those buckets are from!
I LOVE IT! I can't wait to see it in your craft room that is also known as my fantasy room
