So, I went for a walk and look what I found!  I have been wanting another shelf to put my shoes on.  I wanted to go to the store and get another one of those cubicle thingies like I have on the bottom here, but it's such a hassle to put it together, besides, I have to take the bus and walk everywhere and that box is STILL heavy! 

Anyway, though, I was out for a walk and I found this on the side of the road next to the dumpster.  Gosh, I have so MANY awesome dumpster finds!  What awesome dumpster finds have you found?  Post a picture!  I'd love to see, and I intend to post more of mine!  YAY!

I think I posted this in the wrong forum.  I think it belongs in Polls.  But, I would like to see other people's stuff that they've found and hear what they did with it.  I'm a very creative person and I hearing other people's creative ideas helps me spin some of my own.  Thank you!

Geez, best I ever did was a nice oak table (with 2 leaves stacked on top) that I found next to the dumpster one morning.
I'm obviously looking in the wrong dumpsters!

And just think of all those people we're helping keep employed and all the money we're pumping into the economy!

I can't do the attachement thing because I'm stupid, but I've found on the side of the various curbs around town a huge beautifully working, church quailty Hammond organ, an antique turn of last century Cherry wood Amoire with matching  dresser, several tv's and a lovely frightened, starving, skinny injured orange Maine Coon who is now fat, healthy and happy and has shredded up the back of the Hammond organ.

Wow, I need to go dumpster diving with you from now on! 

(snort I almost said "cumster".  Freudian typo?  Possibly.  Now I'm blushing)

At TreasureKY,

You do NOT have enough shoes.  I think Firm is obviously neglecting your shoe needs!  Those shoes in the picture are not ALL my shoes.  I have more on the floor of the closet, some under the bed, and 2 pairs of my thigh high boots hanging on hangers.

First of all, you are NOT too stupid.  I had to practice in the test forum and have somebody tell me how over there.  If you look in the right hand corner of ever post, there's a link that looks like this:
showPicture("7/25/2010 8:30:49 PM",0,0,0,3330429,43)

Hit either quote or reply and a little window will pop up.  In the bottom left hand corner you will see this:
Click here to upload!    Embed picture in post

Check the check box, then click the link.  It was not easy to figure out. 

Now, I would love to see pictures.

Here is something else I found in the dumpster, I did a lot of work on it making it look the way it does, though.  I painted it, I sawed it in half, I took out the drawers.  The paint job, I didn't just paint it, I painted it one color, sanded it, painted another layer, sanded, painted several layers of different colors to get that look.  Then I replaced the cheap, crappy, mirror that was supposed to look etched with a print.  I LOVE this piece!   It's the blue thing on the right.

The picture above it is a print I got at the Downtown Mini Mall on the square and I made the background out of some old green velvet and ribbons I had lying around.  And I made the 2 plates on the table. 

That table in the picture was sitting on the side of the road and this guy sold it to me for about $15.  It's an antique and I've seen others of its ilk in shops for around $600.  I've had it several years now.

Yes, but I only find the kind you'd run from screaming, not the kind you'd fuck...you're so lucky!

Instead of hitting "reply" in the upper corner of the post, select "quote" instead, and trim where needed.

What a beautiful piece! You have such an artistic eye. Okay, I'll have my son the computer genius upload and attache the items I mentioned when he get's home .Maybe I'm not stupid but I'm surely out of touch technically speaking. Thank you for the lesson. (smile)
