Kibbles n bits


I have actually been doing other things than staring at produce. I am trying to tackle small house projects one at a time so that I feel that I have accomplished something every now and then. For example, after selling the wood dining table at the yard sale I was then able to finally assemble the Docksta table and place it in the kitchen. It has only been lying against the wall for months.
I found these acrylic half globe display containers next to the dumpster. I assumed that they were formerly used in a store display. I had no idea how I was going to use them, but I grabbed them. I thought I could use them to store my yarn stash or something in my office.

Well, I ended up using them for the most important member of the household. They are storing his treats on the kitchen wall.

I just added one of those dog butt hooks from Ikea and he was very happy.
He only ended up staring at them for a short while. I think it was the aroma along with the visual. He got over it quickly.

Super clever! Those look great. I think Deedle would figure out a way to climb up and stick her snout into the opening ...

I say, "Good for Deedle!" She is a woman who knows what she wants and gets it. My boy is a little too polite. You could leave the box on the floor and he would not go into it.

Oh man, I love all your espresso makers. They are seriously cute, esp. the round one in the middle.

Thanks! I have more than one person should own.

Where did you get the ones in the middle and on the right? I did a little search on amazon.com last night, but they all look like boring, angular-shaped espresso makers.

Those are all from either rummage sales or thrift stores. They are all models made in Italy. Would you like me to look for a small one in a more round shape for you? E-mail me and let me know what you would like me to look for and I will. It is the middle of rummags sale season so now is a good time for me to look.
