An Oldie But Goodie
I have added a little touch of charm with this unique piece that I found while I was out thriftin' one day. When I first saw it, I knew I wanted it...I had no idea what it was ,but I knew just what I was going to do with it. Just as I picked it up and was looking at it...another customer came up...I asked her what she thought it was...she was clueless too. She thought I was going to put it down and walk away and when I didn't, she said...you really don't want that old thing...you bet I do...it's going up on a wall and display black and white photos. The look on her face was priceless...she had no idea that she was talking to somebody that is always thinking outside of the box and with a $6 price tag...she was mine! What do you think this piece is? Mr.CC is guessing that it was part of an old aluminum screen door...I think he might be correct. As I said...my first thought was to display pics on it...but it would also be fun to hang jewelry or display Christmas cards...the possibilities are endless. Since I'm still on vacation...thought I would share this oldie but goodie with y'all...I'm sure some of my new friends have not seen it...since this was a post from 2/11. While you are out thriftin' remember to always think outside the box and happy thriftin' ladies! Don't forget my WILLOW HOUSE GIVEAWAY...it ends Sunday at midnight.
Take care and I hope you all
have a wonderful weekend,

AWEsome!
Looks like it belonged on some type of "cage", or perhaps an old ?bed? LOVE how you "thought outta that box," girl!
Don't know what it is, but I would have bought it, too! (And my hubby would roll his eyes and think "she's really lost it!"...something he does quite frequently.) Love your idea of displaying photos on it.
What a fun piece. Love it for your photos. Have no idea what it is. Hugs, Marty
It's lovely!
I remember this piece and how you used it for photos! Still amazing to me your great vision for what things can be! hugs, Linda
I love it!!! It's just perfect for displaying photographs!! :)
That is one interesting piece and it looks great with the photos.
FAB~U~LOUS !!!!!
I love the pics too
Great find and wonderful idea

Hi Linda! Something about it reminds me of an old freezer rack. I love how you have chosen to use it, too. And if you ever tire of the old look...there's always ORB in a can! I did a post about thinking out of the box a few months ago. It's fun, but I'm not as quick as you were with this one. :) Thanks, Helen
Cute idea. You would probably pay big bucks for this in one of those industrial design stores!
What a fun and unique find! I love how you are using it to displayed photos.
Have a wonderful weekend,

It looks to me like the rack out of an antique ice box...? Cute display. ~Rachel
I love it!!
Wonderful, I love it! I always like to hang my Christmas cards but really don't have a good place to do so...this would be perfect!!!
I love this and the wall color! It looks great! and about those beads??? do you still get them the way you used to?? LOL
Have a great weekend!

I LOVE it, and I think your husband's right. It's a screen reinforcing thingy for the bottom half of the door. What a pretty family you have!

Love it Linda!
Whatever it is it looks fantastic! I was thrifting and did not get an old crib spring that I STILL THINK about! Yours might be part of a cage? Good conversation piece!
This is a GREAT piece and you did a GREAT job thinking outside the box on this one! Love what you did with it! It looks to me as though it were some kind of a door or cover for a cage? Whatever, ... it's cool!
YOur pictures are all adorable. You have a beautiful family! I would love to find something like this to use for Christmas cards. Such a smart idea!
Clever way to use it. I have no idea what it could original be for?
Thanks for coming to the party Linda! I appreciate your participation.
I love the color of your room! Stunning!
This is a great idea. :)

I love everything about it! Thanks for sharing~!
That is such an Awesome piece.... I bet you held tight to it in the Thrift store~
I have no guess. lol It's certainly charming...
SCORE!!! Love it! I would have grabbed it too. Don't 'cha just crack me up when you get those looks? I wouldn't have looked at you like that, I would have wrestled you for it - lol! I'm getting wiser in my old age, I've learned to where running shoes when I go picking;). An old freezer grate yeah?
I love this! I love using photos, especially old black and whites, in my home.
I love this!! What a great idea!! :)
