I was out doing some lunchtime garage saling again last week.  I brought home this little pile of treasures.

Everything pictured will get some sort of a makeover.  I started with the big wood caddy and simply added a stencil.

I believe this carrier was meant for gathering cut flowers.  I filled mine with some stock (that is the name of the flower, in case you are finding that confusing).  I wish I could say that I grew this myself because I think it would be lovely in the garden, but no, I purchased it from a front yard plant cart while garage saling last weekend.

The second wood caddy needed a more serious makeover.  That green tree and fence stencil had to go.

I painted the entire thing with Fusion’s Laurentien.

Then I added a French stencil in white to both sides.

So much better than the tree, am I right?

I used the same beautiful stock to stage this photo, but this time it’s in a blue canning jar.  I love the pale pink in combination with the pale yellow centers.  So pretty.

I’m still working on the basket, the 3 small chairs and the little watering can, so you’ll just have to stay tuned to see those!
