Instant Collection~ Good Tools


I love old tools.  
Maybe it is in my blood.  
My dad was a carpenter who built his own house.
My grandfather was a custom cabinet maker.


Calipers and Dividers are among my favorite tools.
The largest one of these has a patent date of 1895.


I love to create groups of three assembled from local Estate Sales.
This Instant Collection is my latest favorite lising

One-of-a-Kind Inspiration Board


One of these Vintage Shoe Stretchers looks pretty cool repurposed as
a note/memo/photo holder, but....




Just imagine 6 of them lined up on the wall and repurpused
as an inspiration board.

Available at anythinggoehere.etsy.

They have a great midcentury industrial vibe.

Grandchildren Issues


I have been missing in action for the last week,
but I am having some grandchildren issues.

I have three grandchildren all belonging to my daughter, Amy.

Conner, a newborn who is seriously allergic to mold so my daughter
and her family have to move out of their home quick!

Hannah, who is starting college this fall and needs to
get to orientation and BOTH of her parents work and
don't have any time off!

And Kaylee, 13, who is coming to stay with us for part of the
summer.  Back to the two working parents.

But, I think we have it all worked out!  Yeah!

They live near Lexington, Kentucky and I don't get to see any of them
as often as I would like.

I love them all and I am happy to help out and especially excited about spending 
some time with Kaylee this summer.

Even with all of that planning going on, I did find some neat stuff for
anythinggoeshere.etsy which I am starting to list today.

Including this wonderful vintage Birch Bark Oval Box.

It has been in my studio, AKA the basement for over 20 years.




It has a nice industrial, urban look.



And this Vintage Storage Tray is now available
