Last night I was surprised to see a woman running with a wheelbarrow full of bags and stuff...She looked kinda familiar; i think it was my neighbor's sister. Between 2 trips; I checked out the pile 'o' crap....
Are those legs I see???
Hello dolly!
Magazine rack still with the eeewww magazines in.
This was one for hoarders for sure! there were bags and bags of old stuffed animals and uninteresting stuff in garbage bags.
Just then I remembered that a couple of years ago when I had mice, she had some too and she told me she didn't call the exterminator...She just picked up he mouse poo with a broom and stuffed the holes they came from with kleenex. KLEENEX??? In which parallel universe does she live?
So I kept my garbage poking to a minimum....Until I saw...and dragged them home...
Who can say no to a free plastic snowman who lights up and a funky weird but with potential coffee table?
NOT ME!!!
I gave the table a good cleaning and left it outside for the night. I'll clean Mr. Snowman later. I already found him a place for this winter!
Last few days to participate in my giveaway....Right HERE ! Please comment on that post for a chance to win some fun vintage and new stuff!
Have a great Friday! :)

Oh so cute Snowman! that is a great score! Love the table and can't wait for the makeover. The magazine rack was cute also....ya gotta get gloves to search through the piles esp with mouse poop...ewwww is right!
OMG - We have that snowman TOO!
Fun finds! From a distance my mind might have gone a little wild upon seeing legs and and a torso in the trash. I might even have run in the other direction. Or called 911!
You live in a cool place. It's a bit of a David Lynch movie set.
P.S. Check your email. I'll be calling on you for Pyrex advice.
