I am just relaxing right now while my hubby and the boys flip between the Masters and the many baseball games that are on t.v.. The little boys are still munching on jelly beans from this mornings hunt. Here is a picture of our yummy apple pie...made from scratch by me! We will be enjoying this later with some vanilla ice cream! Yum-0!
Yesterday was a FUN day out! I got away in the morning for a bit with a friend and we went to a small antique store and got the breadboard that you see our apple pie sitting on. Then we went to the antique mall and I found a 10 gallon Red Wing crock for...are you ready for this?! $33.00!! The price tag said $42.00.....and better yet it was 20% off! It has a small chip on the handle on the left side, other than that it is perfect! :)
Then it was on to the Salvation Army where I got this breadbox for $4.00!
After~
And here is what I did with it! A little Breadbox Hide & Seek! Now you see our cell phones~
Now you don't!~
Who says you have to put bread in a bread box!? It was a fun project and I really like the way it makes all the clutter go away! I do not like cords and plug ins! I cut a hole in the back for the cords....they are all neatly tucked away! Actually there is a faux leather charging station from Bed Bath and Beyond inside to hold everything, there is a power strip in there so there is only one cord coming out! My hubby even ran the power strip cord behind the fridge and plugged it in so that the breadbox could sit flush up against the wall! Yay! And my little lamb hides my white outlet cover just perfectly!
I got some other goodies on my day out yesterday...I will post those another time. Some of them are already in makeover mode!
Happy Eater Sarah ~~ Sounds like you all had a wonderful day....good food and loving family, and that apple pie looks yummmy !!! Love all your finds, and what a great way to hide your phone, cords and such.
