Saturday at the ReStore

Saturday morning.

 Time for errands.

 And a stop at the Habitat for Humanity ReStore.

These old library card catalog drawers were only $5.00 each.

Remember when we actually used them to find books?

They'd make great craft room storage
or display pieces for collections of vintage postcards or Valentines.

 

Don't Put Those Wine Corks Away Quite Yet!

I decided to try making a few reindeer while I was working on the wine cork Nativity figures over the weekend.

I first saw these on Pinterest at the Homeless Finch blog.

 

I changed them out a bit, using sticks for legs, neck and antlers. These were simple . . . no tutorial needed. The hardest part was making holes in the corks that would allow the sticks to fit snugly. I ended up using my awl and securing them with a dot of hot glue.

 

 

I plan to use these little reindeer on the porch of our log cabin dollhouse when I finish decorating it for Christmas.

 

With my remaining corks, I'm going to try this idea from Chelsea at two twenty-one:

 

 

Such a warm accent for the holidays and so simple!

 

 

 

Two more great excuses to drink wine!
