Hello, and Welcome to Thrift Store Junkies with LilacsNDreams! Glad to have you here, and that you could take some time to visit with me!:) As some already know, I have not done much of anything the past 2 weeks due to being home sick:-( Great timing as some of us had planned a "Girls Weekend" We were going to meet at a 1/2 way point for us to get together, had the motel reserved, had things mapped out, addresses for some possibilities, and all of that wonderful stuff. New area, new places for treasures, and so on. Well.....I am still home not wanting to infect anyone yet. The girls got together, were packing up, and heading out this morning. I am upset, and missing being there already....but what's a person to do, right? So, I came to my blog to share some thing with everyone here....until I need to step away again:)
Above you will see a few pictures of one of my last ventures out there with thrifting. I was holding off on getting too much due to this weekend, but as you can see from these pieces, and others that have been shown, there are some possibilities to be repurposing with too. I want to try, and take a day where I play around with the glass pieces, and try to put something together a little bit differently than what I have done so far. I keep thinking I will find something else to do, but I do LOVE my glassware. I enjoy painting pieces, but now that it is cold....I will not be able to do much of it unless it is small enough to work with sponge applicators, and some small brushes:)
It's Friday, and I hope everyone is having a beautiful day. It is cool here, and beautifully sunny too! Wish I was out there digging, but health should really come first....no matter how frustrated I am getting...LOL:) Thanks for the visit everyone, take care, and see you again soon!:)
Hello, and Welcome to PassnItOn Blog. Happy to have you here.
Sorry, I know I have been a bit slow getting to this blog, and it has not been intentional. Been working with the transfer of items from my PassnItOn Artfire Store into my LilacsNDreams Artfire Store. Been a little slower then intended due to family, life, and something is always coming up lately. But, I keep working on it as I am able to.
I do have a cloche that I had repurposed, upcycled, and recycled from different pieces put together. I was never really completely happy with the ending product. It felt like something was missing, but not sure what it was. You ever get that sometimes? And then it bothers you, or nags at you a bit till maybe you think of something. Done that a few times myself as I am sure others have too. Well, the other night before transferring it to my LilacsNDreams Artfire store I found a glass piece that appeared to be the right size, height, and was clear glass to match with the glass cloche dome made. I have glued the piece to the bottom, and feel better with the piece now. It gave it a little bit of height, not much, but just enough I think. My only hope is that others will like it as I like it now. My first cloche to make, and I have ideas for another one. Still a working progress for the second one.

* * * ALL items have been repurposed, upcycled, and self created by Me using previously loved items that may show light wear, if any. I search for items to use with care, and find the best possible pieces I can that are in a respectable good used condition. Sometimes some of them look like new. All pieces are then carefully hand washed prior to my process of repurposing, and upcycling. I would not offer anything to you that I would not gladly display with my own home. Unfortunately, I do not have the room for all of these lovely treasures created (LOL) They must go to new homes, and that is why I offer them to everyone with my Artfire Shop. I enjoy what I am doing, and am always anxious to be working with something new, and making notes for new ideas. As I like to note in all my listings, unless otherwise noted to you these pieces are One-of-a-kind not found in stores. How Special is that? * * *
Have a super evening everyone, Happy Hunting, and Shopping!:)

Thanks again for visiting my PassnItOn Blog today, and hope everyone is enjoying the day! Take care, and always welcome to visit. Any questions ask, and please share anything that you would like too. Love to hear from everyone!:)
I usually am not the pushy type of person. I am easy going, carefree, and love doing what I do. But, I do want to remind everyone . . . HOLIDAYS . . . are fast approaching for ALL of us! Coming fast for the sellers trying to get all their stores, booths, websites, and products ready, but it is also fastly approaching for the shoppers too.
Just heard some reports about September Retail numbers were very strong last month. This could mean a strong holiday season for us all. If any of the shoppers are like me . . . I have been watching my pennies, not buying anything, being a good girl all year . . . But, I am getting antsy, and ready to shop!
So, everyone make note, it is predicted this will be a good season. But, also remember other retailers are aware of this, and will be gearing up with coupons, sales, and doing what they can for their businesses also.
Hope ya'll have enjoyed this, and again, Thanks so much for visiting with Passn It On today. Have a great Shopping Day Evening Everyone! Please, when you have a chance, visit with my other blog at LilacsNDreams.blogspot.com
Hope you enjoyed your visit with Me!:)
Passn It On
