Vintage Repurposed Reclaimed Handcrafted Found Second Chances

Vintage Repurposed Reclaimed Handcrafted all deserve Second Chances

Welcome to LilacsNDreams! Happy to have you here!

Second Chances I believe is deserved with vintage, repurposed, reclaimed, handcrafted, DIY, and found items. These treasures sometimes just need a little dusting, little cleaning, touch of paint, sometimes a unity of pieces to create something new, and to be loved. This is something I truly enjoy doing as I treasure hunt through flea markets, thrift stores, yard sales, estate sales, and etc. Once in a while these treasures may find their home with me, but mostly I enjoy being able to offer them to you through my Shoppe at Etsy 

Below you will see a few pictures of items that I have cleaned, and are preparing for unity with another piece. With these items I have made 4 cake cupcake plate pedestal stands. Not pictured is some pink glass pieces I am preparing as well. Some have been completed, and will sit for the night bonding and drying. Then, I will be able to move those pieces to the side to make room for the rest I would like to complete. Once I have them done I will make sure to picture them, and share them with you how they look with the completed unity. I’m excited because I am growing my inventory with things to start listing them at my Shoppe with Etsy 

I love how the snowman pedestal plate stand looks combined with the red base, and I love the combination of the 2 smaller green glass pieces together too. The possibilities with pieces like this are endless! Use them for holidays, weddings, special occasions, to serve with, etc. They are also great to use with your home decor as candle holders, jewelry holders, organize in the kitchen with soap and cloth, same in the bathroom, a catch all when you walk in the door, and the possibilities are endless! Sorry, I get carried away with the excitement and joy of working with some of these pieces. Can you tell? LOL!

I want to Thank You so much for visiting with LilacsNDreams! I enjoy you visiting, and hope to see you again soon. Till the next time, Toodles!

Welcome to LilacsNDreams everyone! Glad you found me, and that you are back to visit too.

Had a great weekend with our son visiting. Before I took him back to base we were able to spend a couple of days with a dear friend of mine. Never enough time to do it all, right? Enjoyed it while we could.

Got home, and was ready to relax, and of course get on the computer. That's all the further I got. Computer having some issue, and once I feel better i will need to take it for some help. Nothing serious I am sure, but won't let me fix it. I think it's wanting attention from someone else....lol.

So, wish me luck, and bear with me. Just maybe I can get my son's laptop figured out, and use that while I am waiting. I am not a computer techie, and the laptop is foreign to me. Technology, right?

Thanks for sharing some time with LilacsNDreams, and hope to see you again soon.
