I went by Tricky Inc today and checked this out, perfect fit but needs buttons or clips for winter wear. It's really heavy but reversible with pockets and a hood. I am not sure if I bring it to a tailor or shoe maker for buttons.

 A couple of Bolo ties and a minituare resin cow skull

I turned this wonderful table cloth into some curtains. These had some markers from my grandchildren that would not come out so I put them in my studio window.

 This is one of my favorite lunches. It combines whatever you have as leftovers. I like a stir fry or salmon and rice. Top with any thinly sliced veggies. Pictured here is cucumbers, baby carrots, cilantro and green onions. I sprinkle some dried mint and black sesame seeds top with some Kweepie Mayo. I forgot my red peppers and avocado but there's always tomorrow. I make extras which sb eaten up quickly as it has salmon in it. After rolling up a bunch, I put them in a container and make sure they are not touching each other.  Then I cover them with a damp paper towel to prevent them them from sticking to each other and from drying out.  Bon appetite 

 I was told there wasn't enough room for my egg chair in doors but I had 2 angels saying different...thank goodness for Tylenol. This will cure any winter blues. Almost forgot my spider plant Maybe the chimes may come in too and I can direct a fan at them when it gets too cold to open the windows 

My friend will reading this poem for her Mom who passed away: Epiteth When Great Trees Fall Maya Angelou When great trees fall, rocks on distant hills shudder, lions hunker down in tall grasses, and even elephants lumber after safety. When great trees fall in forests, small things recoil into silence, their senses eroded beyond fear. When great souls die, the air around us becomes light, rare, sterile. We breathe, briefly. Our eyes, briefly, see with a hurtful clarity. Our memory, suddenly sharpened, examines, gnaws on kind words unsaid, promised walks never taken. Great souls die and our reality, bound to them, takes leave of us. Our souls, dependent upon their nurture, now shrink, wizened. Our minds, formed and informed by their radiance, fall away. We are not so much maddened as reduced to the unutterable ignorance of dark, cold caves. And when great souls die, after a period peace blooms, slowly and always irregularly. Spaces fill with a kind of soothing electric vibration. Our sen

 So you ask yourself what does one do with these; my grandsons played with them making towers learning how to have a steady hand and how balance works. Now our favorite game is Jenga.  Anyhow I asked the person who bought them from me what she planned on using them for and she is using them as the base for Christmas bottle brush trees. I hope she is able to send me a photo. That's the only thing annoying about Poshmark is you are limited to conversations as they think you are doing transactions off their platform. This was a funny incident I shared with my grandsons wondering if they would have attempted to take one box out of this pile at the store

 This beautiful brooch was purchased by a woman who used it as a painting in a doll house. What a cute idea.  https://posh.mk/pOvpHUyxQNb

My blog name is called Tresorcache101. I liked the name Tresor cache from the first time I heard it. It sounded like a diamond in the rough. I like to find little treasures even at the curb. I picked that name when I started this blog way back when. Since Tresor cache was already taken in Google, I added the 101 at the end.  It is the place where I document stories about the items given to me by my Family and Friends either to keep or resale. Some of the items I are found at the curb or  at 2nd Hand Stores, Flea Markets.  Most of the photographs are mine with the exception of the occasional picture ideas for reference of what could be done with the item to upcycle.  Google " bpagani@poshmark.ca" and click on images you will be directed to my Poshmark closet where I sell. I post items on Instagram under randomthingsicollect. Please ask any question you have regarding any of my items.  Use my referral code "bpagani" to receive a $15 discount off your first purchase.
