Jennifer Rizzo sent me an email a little while ago.
She had a great idea for a,
"she sent me what?" project.
Basically, you receive a thrift store item in the mail
{good or bad}
from another blogger, and you have to turn it into something else.
I, in turn buy something at a thrift store and send it on to the next blogger on the list.
Here is the full link of participants:

Donna sent me this pail.
I'll be honest.
I thought it was pretty cute and wondered what the heck I could make with it.
I kinda just wanted to throw a candle in it and set it on my porch and call it good.
But, I knew it had to be more creative than that.
I thought about turning it into a fountain so that the water would come out all the little holes.
I also thought about turning it into a planter and filling it with flowers.
Lastly I thought about planting an herb garden in it for my kitchen.
After staring at it for about a week, I finally figured out what I was going to do with it.
I was going to turn it into a bird feeder/house and the only thing I ended up having to buy was this 99 cent fluted pie pan from the thrift store!
I rummaged through my stash of old hardware and found a tiny door handle.
It happened to fit perfectly in one of the holes for a perch.
Then I drilled a small hole so birds can go in if they choose.
Next, I used liquid nails to attach the pail to the pie pan, let it dry, and filled the pan with wild bird seed!
To see what I sent the next person on the list, please visit Kristin at
