Last weekend, I attended a baby shower hosted by my cousin, and while we were chatting before the shower started, her roommate commented to me that she had a box full of old cast iron things sitting outside for me. I love it when people know what kinds of things float my boat (although I guess cast iron would sink it!), so I was thrilled.

Farmhouse Friday #5 – Vintage Signs

If you are looking for a DIY project to work on this weekend, I think you’ll find one to love at week’s Farmhouse Friday, because the theme is DIY vintage signs! If you’ve ever looked at the prices of antique signs – they are usually outrageously expensive. While I’d love to own one, it isn’t in my budget, so I create my own vintage style signs instead, and we’re going to look at some signs created by some other fabulous bloggers as well.

When I went to Arkansas last week, there was only 1 antique store in the town where I visited, but I found some goodies to bring home, including quite a few antique milk caps. This grouping all have green in them. I’m working on a project right now with one of these images, and hope to get it finished to show you later in the week.

Am I the last person in the world to realize that Starbucks bottles look like old pint-sized milk bottles? Well, they kinda-sorta do, right?
