I've always wanted one of those antique coat valets.
No real reason - I just thought they were pretty cool looking.
One day while at my favorite thrift store, I lucked up on this baby....
.........rickety, time worn perfection.....and only $8!
Had to have it!
Being clueless as to what I would actually do with it, it sat in the garage for a while.
One day I was unloading my car and sat a stack of baskets on the bottom of this to get them out of the way -
and that's when the inspiration struck!
I knew right that minute that this would become my new guest bathroom organizer.
You heard me right. I say it was destined to hold soap, not coats.
So, I gathered my baskets,
...and a few loads of toiletry items,
(from my stash of the finest toiletries around ;) )
...put it all together,
....and came up with this!
I LOVE IT !!
And here she is in place.
Purdy Spiffy, eh?
I thought so too.

And before you ask......NO, I have not found a new house yet. This is from our last house, I just never got around to posting about it.
Where am I now?
Still hanging out in extended stay housing, keeping my fingers crossed that a house will fall in my lap before I get all crazy being cooped up in one room.
When it does, I'll let you know.

So tell me, what have you been repurposing lately?
Linking up over at Funky Junk this week.
