nothing gets my heart a-beating quite like a "free" sign
you know that feeling
i'm always reading about everyone else's amazing finds
and hoping maybe, just maybe, one day it's me!
so imagine my delight when driving home I spotted this gorgeous chippy window on the side of the road
with a big "free" sign attached
could it be??
well peeps, you've never seen a van u-turn quite that fast
it was in my sticky paws within seconds
isn't it perfect
chippy white paint, all the glass intact
~it was love I tell you~
now of course everytime I drive by that house my eyes are peeled!
just in case....
for now it's just leaned up against a wall
and made a great backdrop for my pillow photos
but i have a spot in mind
~oh yes I do~
just breaking it in gently
have to do that in my house, change things gradually you know!
i'm linking up my new treasure to Kathleen's White Wednesday
~and~
as it's Kathleen's 100th White Wednesday post she has a fabulous giveaway going - don't miss it!

You can't beat free! That's my motto! That would make a great table top!
Oh ya you scored a beauty for sure.Awesome! ~Cheers Kim
Love it and any treasure that is FREE! LOL A few months ago while going down the road a great old rusty set of bed springs was leaning against a tree with a "free" sign attached...now I LOVE old bed springs, and I can't tell you how fast I hit the brakes for that one! You never know just what you will find that makes your heart go "pitter patter" while driving down the road!

Hi Tracey,
What a kind, sweet post you left on my blog tonight - thank you so much! I too can't resist a FREE sign. That's a fabulous window that you got. So many possibilities!

I'd have snatched that chippy window too, Tracey! It's great! And of course "free" makes it all the better. Thanks for visiting Cottage and Creek. It's so fun to see what everyone is finding and collecting. Have a great week.

Such a great find! It's a wonderful window...I've never seen one quite like it!
That is an awesome window! I love the thin panes. How cool. I might be inclined to pop the panes out, stand it upright, and hang folded towels over the (bars? slats? you know what I mean) in my bath. But, I certainly do LOVE it with the panes so maybe not! Whatever you do, it will be gorgeous. Thanks for the introduction!
By panes, I mean glass just in case that didn't make sense. ;)
