Finds and Favorites

Head of David

Without a doubt, a key element in my ongoing search for interesting to me, eclectic things

for my home is price.


Lucky for me, I love the search, I love the surprise in it all, and I love that the head of David above cost $2

and that the brass shell was 50 cents.

And yes- as you know- things in this price range usually require some tender loving care and adjustment.

David’s stare was a little scary, but white spray paint cures all.

And for any of us who have ever faced a blank bookshelf

wondering where to start,

Poppy of With a Dash of Color has the solution

You are not going to believe the simplicity of it all.

  2. Ugh, spring cleaning, smiles. Not until May or so here, friend. The last couple of years, winter lasted well until the month of May.

    I love that bust of David and what a great buy. Have a beautiful Sunday, friend.
