This little corner is finished.
I bought the window/wheel at another one of my favorite spots,
The Painted Porch in Medford Minnesota.
I'm off to do more decorating.
Stay tuned for more.

Love finding "stuff" that you can do things with - things you don't even know you'll be doing when you purchase that "stuff".

Loved everything and I'm another that loves repurposeing things - there's a couple of gals that do junking and do come up with a bunch of ideas, cant think of the name right off, but will think on it and get back to you.
