What's It Wednesday #30
I love checking out other blogs for ideas and inspiration. On
one such trip to “Le Petit Cabinet de Curiosites”, she showed a gorgeous old oil and
vinegar cruet that she was selling. It was pretty, but I didn’t really “need it”,
until… she said, ‘I use them in the bathroom for shampoo and conditioner’.
LIGHTBULB!!! I suddenly needed it
in the worst way! Sadly, it was already sold, and I was broken hearted. So
I hopped on eBay and searched for weeks, but couldn't find one with that
tarnished and ornate look I was seeking. Finally, my heart skipped a beat, there it was, an exact match, except… it only had one bottle L. I bought it anyway, hoping to find
another bottle to match. After several
failed attempts, I knew it would probably never happen, so I started thinking
outside the box.
LIGHTBULB!!!
Mouthwash in the bottle, a pretty etched glass, and use the stopper holder ring
to hold the toothbrush. “When life gives you lemons, make lemonade”.
Hugs,
Patti
And thank you all for participating in our "What's It
Wednesday" Linky Party!

I love your tarnished cruet idea! Use them in the bathroom, might have to borrow that. Love your blog, just lovely. Great to meet you, Riki
There is a company called Victorian Papers (catalog) that sells silver handled make-up brushes and they have beautiful toothbrushes. Just what you need for your set.
Love your story with the wonderful lemon that turned into lemonade.
Definitely should submit that bathroom caddy tip to a magazine!
Great idea Patti. I love it. I agree, lemonade is much sweeter than lemons. Great features and thanks for letting us share each week.
Hugs,

That's a wonderful idea... I really hate my mouthwash bottle and do my best to hide it ... but your idea is a wonderful solution! Love it!
Blessings!

Such great containers and so pretty. Great idea with the mouthwash. Good luck finding the missing piece.
Good for you for coming up with another way to use this. It's beautiful.
Now you need those clear acrylic toothbrushes! What a lovely, useful idea. Why shouldn't our bathrooms be pretty? I'm going to keep a look out for something like this. I love the idea of mouthwash in a pretty decanter, not some huge plastic bottle.
Very creative Patti!! Always so much inspiration to be found here!

Your mouthwash "cruet" is gorgeous. I've been looking for a pretty container for mouthwash and you've inspired me to think outside of the box. Thanks for the inspiration and for the party reminder, and for hosting.

PATTI!!!!!! WAIT...before I go on, I just want to tell you that I TOO found a set like this and I USE THEM FOR GLITTER!!!!!! They look great in my workshop!
I think this is a wise thing to do, to suggest what people can do with the product. I have GOT to get used to thinking that way!! I am so creative, but I have not figured out a way to sell my "NOT NECESSARY" items like my paper shoes!
ANYHOOOO....how lovely to see you my dear! So you are teaching summer school? I have taken my time away from even tutoring in French. I was asked to do so, but I need a lot of inspirational time to think.
I WISH YOU A WONDERFUL REST and then a successful time in school! BISOUS, Anita
I love it when clever people share their ideas to repurpose lovely treasures! Thank you for sharing!!
Thanks for hosting such a fun party! I saw one of those cruets recently at a yard sale and I so wish I would have grabbed it up now after seeing how you are using yours! Great idea!
Blessings,
Janet
Now that's one sweet lemonade!
I love the idea and nothing seems to be missing there any more :)
Thank you so much for hosting and the reminder.
Have a lovely weekend!
You are so absolutely clever and this is a great idea. You have the most glorious treasures!
Thanks so much for popping in to see me.
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
I love your creation! I get so many ideas on the blogs I visit! We are surrounded by so many talented ladies...like you, my friend! Happy summer!
What an adorable idea! Who know's you might find the missing piece yet!
Carol
Oh that is so pretty and I love that you made it your own!
Just to be able to see that on your counter every morning would be a joy Patti! I love it! You are so, so clever.
hugs from me...
Very inspiring! I may steal this idea! Hate seeing that ugly mouthwash bottle on the counter.

In the event that you were constantly somewhat envious of Mia Thermopolis, Choices "Imperial Romance" pursues the experiences of a character in your specialty: picking everything from hair to skin tone will be sudden. Wheels for Liam, Crown Prince of Cordonia. Free Choices cheats Be that as it may, will your sentiment bloom with the sovereignty of today, or will you discover love somewhere else? One of the advantages of Choices is that you can combine your character with a few distinct characters and that two situations are not indistinguishable. In the event that you need to go gaga for the Crown Prince's closest companion, this choice is likewise accessible. There are different sentiment alternatives – you can pick what you need, "your" ruler in the event that you wish. That is the best piece of this game and why the name itself is that way: everything is yours.
On the off chance that you are searching for something Spookier, however with a basic sentiment stream, the ebb and flow "Bloodbound" is additionally a fun story to play. You choose in the game as a potential colleague to a puzzling director named Adrian, who in the end ends up being a vampire. When you get familiar with the mystery, you need to manage unforeseen results to be drawn into the otherworldly world – and your Choices influences you as well as your family as well. Think Twilight meets Fifty Shades of Gray (lol, incongruity), however without the dangerous subtleties.
