Trash to Christmas Treasure

I love taking trash and turning into a treasure...and a Christmas treasure is even better!

I made a trip to ReStore a few weeks back when they were having a 20% off sale.  I love these sales...they make a good deal even better!
I found this old tool box (for just over $2) and if you've been following me, you know I like tool boxes (like this one and this one on my porch too).

I know...it's not much to look at...but, DO YOU SEE WHAT I SEE???

Using a little bit of greenery, a string of lights, some dollar store raffia, berries from this thrifted arrangement that I've been cannibalizing, it began to look better.

But, the icing on the cake was of course, a burlap bow.

It's like a Christmas miracle...just kidding!

I LOVE IT!!  

Blessings,
