Treasured Finds & HELP TIPS for YOU~!

 I want to make your wednesday and everyday Happier and easier to get through. So with that in mind, I have brought you these extremely helpful tips.:-)
I've personally tried no. 6 and its a real winner..
I will be trying no. 4 on my Daughter, lol   I'm thinking its a winner even before I try it..

THESE REALLY WORK!! I checked this out on Snopes and it's for real!
I know you'll want to try at least one of them,


1. AVOID CUTTING YOURSELF WHEN SLICING VEGETABLES BY GETTING SOMEONE ELSE TO HOLD THE VEGETABLES WHILE YOU CHOP.

2. AVOID ARGUMENTS WITH THE FEMALES ABOUT LIFTING THE TOILET SEAT BY USING THE SINK.

3. FOR HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE SUFFERERS ~ SIMPLY CUT YOURSELF AND BLEED FOR A FEW MINUTES, THUS REDUCING THE PRESSURE ON YOUR VEINS. REMEMBER TO USE A TIMER.

4. A MOUSE TRAP PLACED ON TOP OF YOUR ALARM CLOCK WILL PREVENT YOU FROM ROLLING OVER AND GOING BACK TO SLEEP AFTER YOU HIT THE SNOOZE BUTTON.

5. IF YOU HAVE A BAD COUGH, TAKE A LARGE DOSE OF LAXATIVES. THEN YOU'LL BE AFRAID TO COUGH.

6. YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. 

IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40.
IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE.

7.. IF YOU CAN'T FIX IT WITH A HAMMER, YOU'VE GOT AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM.


8. If you try any of the above tips I am NOT responcible for the results.  I'm innocent I tell you, INNOCENT ~!

 To all those who posted comments on my teapot tour , YES, I made that Baby and 230 others, so far..  As suggested I put a clickable tag on my side bar so you can see some other
samples and read a little about them. I'll be adding my email to each new post I make so if you need to contact me, you can.. Hopefully I'll remember to do that.. 
 I do appreciate your comments and your suggestions and I am doing my best to implement them, if I can figure out how to without aggravating Marla at Always Nesting, too much.. I know she appreciates it too , lol...

A couple of these items still need some work and others are brand new and still had the tags on them.. I get so dang excited in Goodwill and thrift stores I almost break out in hives , giggle.
OK Sonny, hush and get on with the good part-- the PHOTOS
The large white jar was multicolored- in garish tones I might add. I spray painted it white but I see in the picture it still needs something. Gonna have to give that some thought and I am open to suggestions- so feel free to suggest to your little hearts content. I know some of you Pro spray painters will be able to tell me how to make it BOOOOtiful..  Jar~ 1.00
The plaque with the grapes was 50 cents. It looks like its supposed to be glazed on the white frame section but wasnt done too well.. any ideas?? 
Large candle jar 2.00 ~ splurged on that lol
small candle holder--very heavy for its size~25 cents
2 tiny tea pots  1.00 each=love them sooooooo much..
planted 2.00 and worth every penny- got it a few weeks ago but it just had to be in this photo..
Next is me playing in my art program and doing a collage or would that be a mosiac.. either way looks good to me.
Thats it for this post Folks.
I hope the Helpful Tips brought a smile to your wednesday and that you enjoyed the photos of my newest finds and bargains. 
 Its always wonderful to have you visit and to read your comments and suggestions.

Warm Hugs and Happy thoughts to each and every one of you.

Yellow Thrifting Treasures

  I went thrifting last week and founds some pretty treasure with yellow on them.
 My favorite is the bunny topped dish. Sometimes it amazes me how I just find things at the time of year when they are most appropriate and needed.. I can just see Tommy's greek chicken salad in it. Its nice and heavy, so if I chill it in advance it'll keep everything nice and crisp, especially the marinated cucumbers. Makes my mouth water just to think about it.. I could'nt resist the cream and sugar set for only 50 cents.If nobodies looking I might use the cream pitcher for dressing and the sugar bowl for croutons,, but shhhhhhh dont tell , OK...
 I made my own bunny plate since I didnt have one.. My neighbor let me use her printer. I cant eat off of it but it sure is PURDY, as we say in the south...
I'm participating in Mellow Yellow Monday. You'll find the Tag on my sidebar. Just click it to go and see all the other folks who joined in this weeks posts...
Is that one wild eyed bunny , or what... hahahahaha
played with the photos in my art program.. this looks so romantic.. Bunnies and Romance, do they go together? umm maybe :-)
Thought I might try a mosaic too..
Thanks so much for visiting me and coming to see my new treasures..
Happy Spring and please say a prayer for all of our fellow bloggers who are sick. We may only be in the internet but we're FAMILY..
