The Things You Find


I had no idea what I was getting into when Matt and I purchased the farm in 2015. So many amazing "farmhouse" style items that many of you would swoon over. Like blue Ball jars and old pots and pans and cooking utensils. Cleaning out the bunkhouse we found a great farm table and a meat grinder that has seen better days, but the pack rat in me is not getting rid of it.

This pot was being thrown out. Are you kidding me? Matt can make something out of that. And so he did. I love this little light about my kitchen sink.


I couldn't image tossing this aluminum pot. Now a great light about the kitchen sink.

The first time around he put an Edison bulb in it and although it looked like the perfect farmhouse addition, the smell of the melting aluminum was not something I felt comfortable with. So the bulb was replaced with this Philips one from Lowe's.


Tell me you don't think packratness pays off. While I couldn't find the exact bulbs used in this project, I did find the chandelier ones here. I plan to use these in a future project.
