Turquoise Cabinet plus Pink

I was downstairs in the studio looking for something as I always do I have so much I can't find what I am looking for  quickly. That is why I am going to downsize the treasures. It will be hard because like I said they are all treasures. I wish I had more friends who liked altered art I could have a play day and supply all the treasure to create something.

This is my turquoise chippy cabinet I have. It had glass in the door and it kept falling out so it's out for good. It has a mirror in the back which I like.

                                                        

In the bottom is a stack of old small brown paper sacks with an old store  advertisement on them.I bought them from a printing company closing and they had printed them for this old hardware store I always thought I would make cards out of them.             

I just stuck that little metal car on the shelf for contrast of color and it was in a box of stuff really didn't know I had it.

          While I was looking for whatever it was I was looking for I came across these little guys that was in a box of stuff from an auction you know how it is you want one thing in a box and you take home some really weird stuff.       (Yard sale stuff )                  
                                                                                                                     

I went in the bedroom I made a closet and seen these clothes bags that I love made out of broadcloth from the 50's I am sure.  I have a green print and a pink print

                                                        

Looking around a few boxes of rusty things and lace in a chair also an old picture I broke the glass in I am taking it to get new glass  I bought it at an high end estate sale and it's a women's suffrage picture for women's voting rights. here she sets behind the hot water heater in my utility room

                                                        

This is the sewing machine I bought at an auction for just sewing my paper cards $9.00 it was , had it's booklet attached

  A toy gun and a little black  bag I am working on to make into a necklace              

                                                
    Remember I mentioned I was going to paint a pair of vintage high heels? this is the before picture while they was a beige color which all the fashion people are telling us this is the color to wear with any dress this spring   

                                        Here is the can of paint I am using If you remember I painted a door pink that  I have all my ribbons hanging on                                                                                                                                         

        OK now here is the after
      

I made new liners and added some shoe clips . I traced the liners out of  an old calendar

                                                    

They really turned out good now they can go sit besides the pink formal in the Iron bed bedroom. Now I need to get that black  bag painted and I am going to carry it.

A friend of mine is moving and downsizing like everybody i know anyway she has a 16 place setting of Desert Rose by Franciscan plus extra serving pieces , glasses, butter, cups & saucers, the tall salt pepper,veg bowl, platter ,pitcher
Her mother in law got them for  wedding china in 197o's?

I found a new pyrex divided dish My sister and I was shopping in an antique shop and I found this is in the basement the only piece of pyrex in the store. I think I will use it for a divided dinner plate for me (big plate huh?)
