My favorite part of the week – Fab Five Fridays! My oldest daughter’s opening night went well and now just two more performances..and we only get a little bit of break for she is doing a theatre camp in July.
The Fab Five for the week:
1 – Fabric Box – This woven rags trunk was found in the Third Street Cafe last week. It is a product of Cupcakes & Cartwheels, but I can not find it on their site. The tag said the rags were woven together and were remnants from another product.
2 – Vintage Clorox Bottle – I finally stopped in a store that I pass often – Decorator Warehouse – and lucked out finding another vintage bottle for my laundry room. The great thing about this bottle is it says Clorox which is great for my bleach to be stored.
3 – Maurice’s invention – I helped doing the set for the musical by painting structures with fireproof paint and helping build the prop for Maurice. I had so much fun working on this prop and it was great seeing it on the stage.
4 – Lillie’s Egg Doodle – I took my oldest to brunch one day this week to a neat little restaurant called Doodles. This item is a spin on egg in a hole with biscuits rather than bread and was tasty. The restaurant has a nice atmosphere/ambience and decent prices. We will probably go back during the summer.
5 – Alcohol Lamp – While walking around Decorator Warehouse I saw this unique lamp. The designer took an ordinary liquor bottle into a functional lamp. I like how the paint comes down the bottle, and I have to say this is a great way to upcycle.
I hope you had some of your own findings!
