The Penny Worthy Project












Found a few cool treasures this week but the real treasure is happening. My husband is a historical reennactor and has taken the boys away to the Renaissance Faire in the big city. It's Friday and they won;t be home until Sunday 2 full blessed days pf peace. What will I do with myself? I have a few things in mind.







I also got out for a bit of thrifting. I found this cute stool 







which I immediately painted cherry red and left to dry in the driveway.








I found this ice bucket last week 











and would never have bought it except it matches the tray I bought a few weeks ago. 






I found a few books to resell 






and this one which is written by an Alaskan about Alaska flowers.






 I have to wonder why anyone would pick a name for a book that is hard to figure out how to pronounce? Thoughts?














Peace and Love--

  2. Hi Laura; great little (red) stool. Two days is a gift of time. I treasure the hours when the kids are in school/at work and dh is at work too. There are never enough hours to get the 'lists' finished. Thanks for hosting.

  3. Finding a 'matching' ice bucket to go with the tray you found earlier makes a nice serving set. Thanks for hosting.

  8. Totally a guess on my part, but I wonder if her name is suppose to be a variation of lineaus the founder of scientific naming system (ie kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species).
    Love the brilliant red!!
