Welcome to Second Time Treasures Everyone! Great to have you back here, and visiting today.
Wow! What a weekend! I had a great schedule of how I was working things out for all my blogs, doing listings for my reselling that I do, taking pictures, doing research, and etc. Then...boom! I got hit with the bad luck thing again. Why Me? Does it quit? When can I see the light of day? And...you know what I mean:)
The computer has always done this thing where it shuts down, no signal found, and sometimes will restart, and other times you have to start it. Computer always comes back on, and business as usual...unless the temperature is warm on it of course. So, when it went down nothing different was thought of it. Turned it back on, and WOW! Different desktop pic showing, icons were different, finding files and transferring them to another place, and just all that kind of stuff. Along the bottom bar I get pop ups for when computer starts, and to me they looked normal.
After doing work, restart computer, and boom! Back to the beginning again. Files gone I was moving, desktop not saving, and just everything I did was not saving on the computer. One of them there pop ups that comes on as computer is coming on, and signing in showed something about Profile Not Found. So, I watched closer, made note of it, and then went into ask.com to research it a bit. Yepper! There was others who had this happen....a corrupted file! So, I pretty much did all that was instructed except messing with the registry keys...that makes me nervous. I am no computer tech, and do things as I have learned them.
Finally, I seem to be getting some where that I could at least save the files to folders organized in my Picture folder. Desktop picture was staying as it should. The browser of choice was finally staying set without asking me everytime it started up which browser to use, etc. Nothing perfect, still have a lil kink in it here, and there. Looked through the registry keys for the one suggested....not there. I cannot find some of the missing files that I know are in the hard drive, and therefore some things I have to start over with again...urgh!
I have gone into computer, put the sleep mode as never, set computer as never to shut off unless I do it, or of course something bad is coming in.....that I cannot get to work for me as it keeps reverting back to the other settings. So, some where I do not have full access as the new administrator I have assigned to this computer....the other old ones have been deleted. But, I am up and running, and now to play a lil bit of catch me up with things.
It's Wednesday....HAPPY HUMP DAY TO ALL!! Hope ya'll are doing well this week, enjoying the weather, and have been able to do some thrifting, or painting, or some repurposing and crafting too. I'm getting there, but the computer comes first right now:) Know what I mean?:)
Thanks for sharing your time with Second Time Treasures! Come back to visit again soon.

Happy Memorial Day and Weekend to Blog Bloggers and Blogland
Happy Memorial Day and Weekend to Blog Bloggers and Blogland!
Hello, and thanks for stopping by Second Time Treasures! Happy to see you visiting with Me today. I hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend so far, and that it finishes off with a wonderful Memorial Day Monday! Did ya'll have big plans? Not here. Have pretty much been home by myself. Grabbed the paint tray, another bucket of paint, paint brush and roller, and went upstairs to work on some more painting in the bedrooms. I am determined to get this done yet!
Anyway, while out and about enjoying your time, and being with family and friends. Please, try to remember those men and women who are gone, but served our country to give us the freedoms we have today. Remember them, and the families and friends that they have left behind to be proud of them, and what they did.
I wish you all well, and hope the weekend is being good to you. Thanks so much for sharing your time with Second Time Treasures this evening. Ya'll take care, and see you again soon.

Welcome to Second Time Treasures Bloggers and Blogland
Hello, and Welcome to Second Time Treasures Bloggers, and those in Blogland! Glad to see you stopping by, and happy you landed here.
Well, not too much to really report to anyone at this time. Just Life, working around home to complete remodeling projects, some days no contractors, and some days contractors are in and out, and here all day. Well, the were here today so I could not work on painting walls. So, I was outside mowing. Windy, windy, and was it windy out too! But, got 1/2 the property done which is good for me. Might rain tomorrow....if it does I can work on painting walls. IF it would not rain I could maybe do some more mowing again too. Or, who knows, if I have the energy a lil bit of both:)
Holiday weekend almost here. Anyone have any big plans? I don't. Hubby cannot be home, son will be gone all weekend, sister is going camping, and other sister is doing her own thing some where else too. So, maybe I will be able to get some things done around here....Hmmm......Work on painting, maybe finish a couple of homemade projects here, and relaxing too! Could be promising, huh? LOL:) I know....
Well, this is hoping everyone is having a fabulous Tuesday, and a wonderful evening! Ya'll take care, and come back again soon. See Ya!

Second Time Treasures Welcomes Blogs, Bloggers, and Blogland
Second Time Treasures Welcomes Blogs, Bloggers, and Blogland.
Hi, and Welcome to Second Time Treasures! Happy to see you back, and happy you stopped while passing through also. I know, I shouldn't have to say it again....and again....I am so very very sorry everyone for not checking in here sooner. I tell ya, Life has gotten a hold of me lately, and I have had to prioritize just a bit. Spending time with my stores, making a sale here and there, shipping, taking son to & from work everyday, and.....worst of all was on this past Monday!
Yeah, I would have never guessed it to happen, but it did, and I am heart broken over it too. I have a blog that pretty much directs to my online sales. I have had the blog since 2009, and the past year have focused my attention and energy on it. Reading things to do, researching the good and bad of things to do, applying keywords - links - and doing a little bit of SEO with it too. Then, I sat done and looked at things that I should cover for topics, and not cover. Found out there is no right, or wrong to it....be yourself, and do with it as you wish for whatever your purpose may be.
So, I have gotten domains from GoDaddy, and directed those to my blogs too. On Monday I checked emails, checked accounts, and then went to sign into my main business blog. Message...Blog deleted, Blog disabled, Blog not found were the 3 different messages I would get at different times. No reason for this, no excuses, and most of all...not definite way to find out about it either. I have gone to the help sections, left messages, and that usually is not very successful. Blogger is sooo big...like Facebook that doing the one on one thing just doesn't happen. At some point I was told it would be submitted for review for reinstatement. Could take up to 7 business days. Yikes! That won't work!
So, after all of that I spent all day on Monday into Monday night making a new blog, some new blog pages, getting my links put into order, banners, pictures, avatars, clocks, stat counters, organizing it, and doing all I could. Then, I went off to different places to announce the new blog addy I had too. Here it is Thursday, still not fully done with my Blog to where I want it, but it can be viewed. People are slowly coming to it, slowly getting some followers again, and etc. Then...trying to find a way that I could find/retrieve some of the blog posts I had done with it that brought me some attention too.
All I can say is what a work out it has been! I would never wish this upon anyone. I would not have been so heart broken if I had not put so much time, and my heart into it. Also, I like my blog because it is like a website to me. It's free...except for the domains I direct to it, I have pages, I share things, share information, shares instructions, ideas, and just whatever I think would be of interest to my followers.
Well, looks like I have written a book here now, huh? Sorry about that everyone. I get carried away sometimes. I enjoy blogging, and until Monday had a schedule worked out that I could spread my time with all of them....I have been slightly delayed.
Thanks for being patient with me everyone. I so appreciate it! Thanks for visiting with Second Time Treasures. Take care, and see you again soon!:)

Google Friend Closing Linky Followers is New
Google Friend Connect Closing Linky Followers is New.
Hello, and Welcome to Second Time Treasures everyone! Glad to have you here. This posting will be short as it is becoming late night, but I wanted to get this noted. Earlier tonight an email had been received about Google Friend Connect will be closing. I guess it is another program like Picnik that Google will be closing with their list they have. Due to this factor for anyone listed in the Google Friend Connect will be lost...how sad. So, I was given the option to sign up with Linky Followers. I figured it is free, and I see other blogs using this as well, so why not give it a try, right? In the right hand column you will see not far down, under Google Friend Connect, that I have added this Linky Followers Box. If you will be so kind as to sign in, and follow with it I would appreciate it. IF for some reason Google does not close the Friend Connect Box I will remove all the extras I have showing right now. But, till then, I would prefer to be safe preparing for this then to be sorry later on.
Hey, thanks for visiting with me, and I appreciate it. Always welcome to visit Second Time Treasures, and stop by anytime. Make sure to say Hi so that I know to come visit with you as well. Thanks again everyone. Take care, and have a super week into the weekend! Later..........

Picnik Needs to Stay Open Petition Its Stay Please
Picnik Needs to Stay Open Petition Its Stay Please!
Welcome to Second Time Treasures everyone, and glad to see you all here. Have you heard about Picnik? Do you use Picnik? It is a photo editing program that has been free, and also a small premium fee for more added features. Very easy to use, no hassles, uncomplicated, no hard to read and understand software to deal with, and I cannot say enough good about this place. I have sooo enjoyed using them, and then came the news of Google taking them over. Things went well, nothing bad was coming of it till now with this announcement. When you can please visit this site, and sign a petition to stop this madness. The alternative being given to us to use is with Google+. I enjoy Google+ myself, but do not like it for the photo editing I have with Picnik. Doing things this way feels as though Google is now really pushing the Google Plus at us. Sad:(
So, stop on by, give it a read, and better yet....sign a petition to protest this change that Google is once again enforcing....that does NOT need to be done! I thank you all for visiting, and taking the time with this announcement. Take care, and have a super weekend everyone!
Official Announcement: Picnik is closing

Getting Organized by Repurposing and Upcycling From Home
Getting Organized by Repurposing and Upcycling From Home.
Hello, and Welcome to Second Time Treasures! Glad to have you here, and hope ya'll are having a wonderful week so far. The time of year is coming for me, and maybe for some of you too. End of year, holidays soon over, winter time, and I will soon be getting cabin fever...not a whole lot can do when it is cold out, and sometimes have snow too. Things will soon be slowing down around here after all the fesitivities, and I will then be looking around at everything. House walls will start to come in a little closer, and I will realize since I cannot paint anything yet that I need to get more organized. Honestly, I feel that way a lot with organizing, but I have been looking at some things to maybe help me out a bit, or give me some wonderful ideas to do.
So, my favorite things of repurposing and upcycling will be able to help with many of my organizational tasks I will be planning out. I have found many others doing it, and they have also shared many wonderful pictures along with sometimes a tutorial on how they did it too. We don't always have to go out, and buy new to fix things around the home. We sometimes have things right in our home that we don't consider, and can be used. Many of us hang onto different things thinking some day I might find a use for it, or also the feeling of you just hate to get rid of it...you never know. This is one of them times to use some of them things.
Have any extra tea cups from a mismatched set, coffee cups, mugs, saucers, and etc? Use those to separate things in maybe a drawer, and organize them. For instance paper clips, pins, tacs, staples for that good old stapler, tape, and just different things like that.
There are many ways to organize the walls, and your spaces with things you have sitting around too. Using some tin cans...paint them or add some mod podge and paper to them to decorate for the area you would like to use them with. They can also be hung too. Use some old desk, or dresser drawers to organize with as well. Something I have been seriously considering lately...since I have enough of them, and will see them when thrifting too is dressers. Oh yeah. They can be used for your tv consoles, pull drawers out to make room for the dvd player and such, and don't forget....those drawers can be used in other ways too. I have seen some dressers repurposed for the kitchen as an island, seen them in the bathroom to organize as they are, or by adding sinks and such to them too.
Below I will show you only a few pictures I found to hopefully help you create maybe what would work for you. There is much to see out there on the internet, and with different places. If you have a day where you can just roam for a bit, take a look, and find some things to spark your imagination. I have found that some of the blogs have been helpful, and also at pinterest.com many are tagging things there of interest too.
I can see putting 3 baskets, bowls, pie pans, and such together making something like this myself. Great for serving of food, but also for organizing of things in the bathroom, kitchen, office, bedroom, and so on. I got this picture from organizerwomansday.com
Something so simple, but oh so organizational too! here is showing how coffee cups, creamers, glasses, and trays come be helpful when organizing them smaller things you have. Not only the bathroom, but the kitchen, office, and your bedroom would be great with this too. I found this picture with apartmenttherapy.com
I forgot to mention how some of us maybe need to organize for our gardens, or the tools we use. This is a dresser that has been repurposed for such a task. Neat idea, isn't it? I found this on pinterest.com which it originally came from addicted2decorating.com. Hmm....the possibilities!
Here is a way to use some of them dresser, and desk drawers that you took from their original places. Or, maybe found when thrifting and junking too. Drawers can be hung to the walls and used as shelves, they can be mounted, they can be cut to then attach to the walls with the fronts facing everyone, I have seen some big drawers that were used as little night stands next to a bed, and the possibilities are endless with this along with other things too. This picture came from consignmentphinds.blogspot.com
As you can see there are so many possibilities to use to organize our homes, our little spaces, rooms, and etc. With some of them we can give our own little touches to them to work with our country homes, shabby homes, cottage homes, beach homes, and so on. I hope this helps you with some ideas of what to do with organizing. As we all know, seeing something can often give us our insights we need to serve us. So, have fun with it everyone!:) Thanks so much for visiting with Second Time Treasures! Always a pleasure to have you, and see you again soon. Take care, and Happy Holidays everyone!:)

Set Clocks Back an Hour Day Light Savings Time
Set Them Clocks Back an Hour, Day Light Savings Time.
Hello, and Welcome to Second Time Treasures this evening! Glad to have you here, and that you could stop to visit with me! I wanted to come by, and leave a note for everyone to remind you to set them clocks back tonight before you go to bed. Otherwise, you could wake in the morning to a reality check after you have rushed around getting ready for church, to meet with friends, to go for a brunch, and so on....that you are waayyy ahead of schedule. By about an hour...LOL:) Don't worry, this is a reminder for me too. I get forgetful as well:)
Setting our clocks back is good, we gain another hour, but I also think of how this is it. This is really fall/winter time, and the dark nights will come much sooner to us now too. Hopefully this winter will be good to us, and we can move onto spring when need be.
Ok, sorry. Thanks again for visiting with Second Time Treasures, and hope this is a helpful reminder to you about setting them clocks back! Enjoy that extra hour....I know I will:) See you when you come back.
Hello, and Welcome to Second Time Treasures this evening! Glad to have you here, and that you could stop to visit with me! I wanted to come by, and leave a note for everyone to remind you to set them clocks back tonight before you go to bed. Otherwise, you could wake in the morning to a reality check after you have rushed around getting ready for church, to meet with friends, to go for a brunch, and so on....that you are waayyy ahead of schedule. By about an hour...LOL:) Don't worry, this is a reminder for me too. I get forgetful as well:)

Ball Jar, Picture Frame, Pink Jewelry Thrift Store Finds
Ball Jar, Picture Frame, Pink Jewelry Thrift Store Finds
Hello, and Welcome to Second Time Treasures. Glad to have you here, and happy that you could stop by to visit. I have shown 3 pictures of a few things I got when visiting a Thrift Store I visited recently. Just one of them days I could not find much of anything, and due to that the mood of thrifting was not so good anymore. But, I did get a few things.
Got the Ball Jar....snatched that one right away. Look at the tarnished lid on it, and inside are some colored wooden beads that came with the jar too. The picture frame I grabbed that too. I have another one just like it I had gotten like 2-3 years ago, and have a wedding picture in it of Me and my Grandmother. So, when I seen another frame like it I grabbed it right away thinking I could then put in a picture of my husband with maybe his grandmother too. One of them precious things that can be appreciated. Next to the frame is a soft pink necklace with only 1 earring. Wish I had the other earring to craft with, but I like the soft pink of this color so I took it anyway. Lastly, not exactly sure what it is, but it looks like some type of a keyring. I got this piece because of the iridescent colored stone in the center, and around it. never know what can be done with this, right?
Hope everyone is having a great Tuesday. I am off to try and finish up painting on some pieces that I have primed, and hopefully start adding some color to them now. Big wooden bowl, and 2 smaller wooden bowls. I did get a 4th wooden bowl finished. That one I am leaving white. Plan is to have a white bowl, blue bowl, and the 2 smaller bowls will be a ballet slipper pink. Hmmm...sounds kind of yummy, don't ya think?:)
Thanks for visiting, and hope to see you again. Take care everyone, and have a super evening!:)

Welcome to Second Time Treasures Blog
Hello, and Welcome again to Second Time Treasures! Glad to see you here, and happy that you passed by to visit.
If you are following me you will notice that I am slowly making some changes again with this blog. I have done the name change....Use to be Passn It On. Also, at the top you will notice that 2 of the tabs when clicked take you to a new page. When you see LilacsNDreams with the page banners along with the tab name, please do not get excited. That is my name I have used since 2004, and to keep things a bit simpler I have redirected you to those pages for this blog as well. Hope that is understandable how I have tried to explain it. Give the tabs a click to see what I am referring to if you will:)
I hope this finds everyone having a great morning, day, evening which ever it may be for you. Also, I would like to quickly note that I belong to different social networks....I love meeting people, and being involved, and learning things with them too. Anyway, the one site I belong to called Treasure Seekers Unite has a new platform, and it is really looking good. Members are signing up and joining. The site is for sellers, buyers, collectors, and so on. A little bit of everyone. Place to meet others who might share some of your same interests, and with the groups you can become more involved. Share some things, you know:) When you get a chance, stop by to give them a visit, and become a member as well. Would be happy to see you there. While there maybe consider joining my group I have started, and administering there as well called Re-Treasure. Hope to see you there everyone!:)
Thanks for visiting with Second Time Treasures, and hope you enjoyed your visit with me. Thanks so much for being patient with me as I work with changes on everything. I appreciate it all. Take care everyone.

Welcome to Second Time Treasures Formerly Passn It On
Hello everyone, and glad to see you here!:)
Whew! If you will please bear with me one more time....I am making some changes with ALL my blogs, trying to make them work together, and bring them in together a bit more than what they were. With this one you will notice I have changed the name with it....fits more with what I am working on doing, and changing things to. Some blogs of mine have been canceled, and some have been added.....as pages for my main blog. As ya'll know, that is where I have been spending a lot of my time is with my main blog....it's for my business, and generates the traffic for me that is growing too! I am excited because for me it is an accomplishment.
When I started things online with selling I just kind of stepped up to it, and just did it. Over time I have been learning things, researching things, and reading things. I decided to slow myself down a little bit, and re-evaluate things a bit more. So, I have stepped back a bit, decided to work with my blogs more, and my website, and try to get my views and things up with that. I have not listed anything new for my stores....as of yet. Summertime is always slow for me. It gives me a chance to do what I am doing now, look things over, see what I need to change, and decide what directions I am going.
I LOVE vintage, collectibles, and always will. I enjoy selling them, and am always learning great things, and meeting great people along the way too. But, things haven't been fully settled with me. I felt there was more I wanted to do, and just did not feel completed yet. Over time I have watched, read, reviewed, and soooo enjoyed everything shared by soooo many crafty people out there! Kind of some of the "Child" coming back in me. When I was younger I use to paint things, create things, sew with grandma's sewing machine, and over time grandma would bring me silk flowers she would find on sale, or maybe bring some other things of scraps of material and different supplies she would find on sale. I now know I should have listened to her quiet hints to me. She seen something with me then, and I soooo wish she was here to see things now, and see what I have been working on, and planning to do!
So, I intend to keep selling vintage, collectibles as I do enjoy it. But, along with it I also will be implementing things with repurposed, reused, upcycled, and items reconstructed by me. I am no expert, and learning as I go. But, it occupies my time, I am enjoying it, and it has been comforting to work with some things so far. I hope to be doing more with supplies, and things I have here now. Working on my schedules of things, and trying to get back into the "groove" of what I do....selling:)
Thanks for being patient, and bearing with me through all of this. I really appreciate it. Please, check out my main blog of LilacsNDreams. See the pages that have been added to it, and some of the rearranging of things I have also been doing. Working on trying to bring it all together.....one step at a time:) Thanks for visiting, and please visit to keep updated. Know that you are always welcome to leave comments, and share with any of my blogs, and pages. Take care everyone!:)

Blog, Blogging, Blog Pages
Blog, Blogging, Blog Pages . . . . Hello everyone, and Welcome to PassnItOn! Glad to see you here. Why is it when it becomes summer we all kind of slow down with things, schedules we had seem to alter themselves, and know what I mean? LOL:)
Don't take me wrong, I have been checking in with my stores every day, making sure everything is ok, if there are any changes, and all of that. But, during the summer sales do slow a bit with everyone vacationing, camping, traveling, visiting, activities, and so on. I like to take this time to go through inventory at home, clear some things out, clean house a bit more, and spend time with my blogs and my website too.
When you have a chance, please visit LilacsNDreams Blog. Working on a few changes there, ran into a glitch with having pages with blogger, but has found another way around it. Hopefully it will work as planning on. I noticed another blog tonight, was very nice, a seller from Artfire, and for her pages she had a box on the side bar for her, and had it titled Categories. I had seen this method explained to do when in search of working with pages on blogger. I questioned if I would like it, but got to see how it worked. Not too bad, and I know others are using that way too.
Anyway, check out LilacsNDreams Blog with blog, blogging, vintage, collectibles, repurposed, and see what is happening with the pages there. See the solution that was chosen in that case, and read why it was done too.
Thanks for visiting with PassnItOn, and wishing ya'll a super weekend! Have fun, and be safe:)
