A couple of friends came by to enjoy the exquisite spring weather and have some chicken salad on fresh baked bread with me in my courtyard.
Both brought bags of stuff they had around and wondered if I could use.
Jen’s husband had bought a case of air spray cans meant for cleaning a key board and she asked if I wanted a couple since they’d never use up that many. She’d remembered me complaining about how dusty Good Juju was and that I was worried that my sun catchers would soon become dirt collectors.
It wouldn’t have occurred to me to try spraying the crystals with an air can, but once she mentioned it, I was thrilled with the idea. There are so many things there that could be so much simpler to keep tidy this way.
Shanna had a couple of sacks with her and seemed almost apologetic to offer them. She said they were things her grandma had for years and were in pretty bad shape. My ears pricked up with those words and my heart might’ve skipped a couple beats.
One package was stuffed with pieces of vintage fur, ideal for crafting Santas at Christmas. The other contained all of these millinery floral bunches. One of my favorite things in the world.
See why? These are all perfectly faded and tattered. I see many exciting craft projects ahead for me, as well as clean chandeliers in my booth. Thanks to my pals!
