ALS "ice bucket challenge" switched up - I am donating the proceeds of a mini painting to the highest bid for ALS

You know if you do one small thing it could change a lot. Smile at someone and they most likely will smile back at you. Hold a door open for someone and see how appreciated people are.Take a little bit of extra time out for someone even if you don't know them. This is my challenge to all my friends and family, every day whether it be donating your time, money it is up to you.

So I will be donating the proceeds of this mini 6 x 9 acrylic painting to the highest bidder ending on Aug 28th in memory of my mother's birthday and the proceeds will be sent to ALS. Just for the record my mother did not have ALS but I am sure she would be happy if she knew what I was up to.

I may try to sell on and keep the other for a project....hum so many projects....what shall I do? I love the detail on each of the little drawer pulls and one of them has this little detailed corner which is so cute. the bottom of this one lost it's veneer After some research on some of my blogs that I visit I found some great ideas like this one by Mamie Jane's Here is another idea to use the drawers for from http://www.etsy.com/listing/65855791/salvaged-vintage-sewing-machine-drawer?ref=sr_list_1&ga_search_query=sewing+machine+drawers&ga_page=2&ga_search_type=all&ga_facet = Or this one from http://www.etsy.com/listing/63700962/vintage-oak-sewing-machine-drawer-with?ref=sr_list_19&ga_search_query=sewing+machine+drawers&ga_page=2&ga_search_type=all&ga_facet = another real cute design for candle holders f

End of a collection #Breweriana

For years my hubby and I collected Breweriana items. It started with beer glasses and within a year or two without realizing it, we had over 100 displayed in our A frame window ledge. Then it was coasters from every bar or restaurant we visited. The next level was Beer trays which we eventually sold off. This all started when we were making our own beer even managed to find the old quart size bottles and the cases. As with most collections it grows without even noticing. You know it's out of control when you need to clean over 100 glasses, twice a year. We still pick up glasses, coasters and trays here and there but more for reselling. This is the last bit of the collection that we no longer display and all the coasters have a pin hole as they were mounted in our basement on our barn wood walls. They are in relatively good condition for the next collector to come along and purchase them. Poshmark.ca/closet/bpagani Thank you for checking them out. update this batch which had lots
