in-and-out thrifting

 Some quick in-and-out thrifting yesterday
netted me this sweet vintage frame.
(I've already removed the unexciting oil painting that was inside.)
 I was equally thrilled with this vintage lamp shade.
I was able to remove many of the brown spots with a serious scrubbbing.
A few remain.  I don't care.
 Inspired by my new finds,
I paired an empty vase with some shoe-shapers
(not sure of their real name).
Made for a little wooden bouquet!
