    Default I have a couple of pictures to share...

    Bear with me; I haven't done this before. The first is the storage cover I sewed with my thrift store find: So excited...

    Gee that's a huge image. I'm sorry I don't know how to make them smaller. Here's what the cubes look like without a cover. Quite a difference in my dining room!

    And lastly, these are my daughters. I made these dresses with sheets found at a thrift store and buttons cut off a 25c garage sale shirt. Total cost about $6.

    Well...the computer says the image is too big...Anyone know how I can fix that?

    I love seeking photos like these. When we "talk" with each other every day, it just brings it home how each of us is living our lives. I find that very interesting. Thanks for posting the pics, Valerie. I'm hanging out to see your girls now.

    I got to thinking...these wire cubes would make a good, inexpensive pantry for someone wanting to stockpile, but lacking other space. The inside measurements are 14" (35cm) wide, high and deep. I bought three sets (but I'm only using 2 here); each set was about $15.

    CJ, thanks for PMing Sara - I have dial-up internet; do you know how long it takes to download this thread?
