I've been looking for a good deal on another set of brass stencils for the longest time. Imagine my excitement when I found three sets. Yes, three sets in one place. Two brass sets and one galvanized set with all the letters, numbers, and symbols....not one missing piece.
I do love my junkin' adventures.
And I do love this great country!
These salt and pepper shakers are
recent yard sale finds that I filled with beads and tiny red, white, and blue buttons.
Quick and easy picture, card, or letter holders. The stem on the 18 gauge wire stays firmly in place with the help of the buttons and beads.
I'm spending some time in Ashland, Oregon and will be having tons of fun selling my salvaged treasures in Lithia Park for their annual 4th of July Artisan Faire.
I hope everyone has a very happy and safe Independence Day celebration!!

Betsy, I love everything you do!! How freakin clever to use the glass s&p shakers like that. I hope you are enjoying Oregon. I sure did. Just being out of 100 degree heat for a week was priceless!!
Your USA display is awesome! Love it, love it, love it! And I, too, love this great country. Happy

What a wonderful idea, Betsy! I love this. I do wish I were in Ashland to see your wares...
Happy 4th to you and hope you have a wonderful time in Ashland! There's some great junking down there as well (as you already know!). Have a wonderful time at your event and wishing you many, many sales. :-)
Just too cute! I have stencil numbers, but no letters. And, you found 3 sets! Love your little salt shakers to hold the letters. I will have to remember that idea.

So cute. I found a whole at a garage sale a while back and tucked them away. I liked them, but wasn't even thinking of all these cute decorating ideas. Can't wait to use them now! I am new follower!
Your letter holders are adorable! I'd have so much fun leaving messages with 3 sets of letters!
Oh these are so fun and super cute!
It's one of those, "Now why didn't I think of that!" ideas. Sweet!
We'd love to have you share them at WIW.
Hugs,
Patti
Oh what a great find!! I have never even found one set, much less three, just think of all of the projects you will do! I love the salt shakers and how you got the wire bent just perfect!!
