Welcome to Trashy Tuesday! I don’t make it a habit to go shopping for accessories whilst I dumpster dive. This week was quite the exception!  I was at my secret/favorite dumpster looking for furniture type items.  Instead, I found an under the bed storage container with STUFF in it. I needed another one of these for wrapping paper. 
You would not believe what was inside. A treasure trove of brand new and nearly new knock off purses and wallets.  WEIRD!    Almost as weird as the day I found that one person’s weird stuff.  You can read about that creepy post HERE.

Decent knock off Chanel wallet.  Trust me, if I found a real one, it would not be photographed on this yucky old  table.

Maybe knockoff Gucci is more your taste?

How about a Faux Gucci Satchel, BRAND NEW to go with it.  (Yes, it is has its back to us)

I don’t believe in wearing white after Labor Day. That fashion rule didn’t apply to my 16 year old daughter. She was thrilled for the new purse!

I had found several things for my girls.  What about my son?  How about this uber cool sign?

I found the world’s longest couch.  I am about 6 feet, and it towered over me.  It was slightly awkward when I was standing behind it to get the picture, and an unsuspecting man stopped by to throw out his garbage.  This was one of my secret apartment dumpsters, the kind where it is gated.   I drive in when someone drives out?   You can read all about my methods in my Dumpster Diving Series.

I told him why I was taking the pictures.  He found it interesting and called my blog posts about trash, “Art”.  That was a validating moment for moi.

I am in the middle of  redouxing my Living Room.  I love the FREE Midcentury Coffee Table I found a few weeks ago.  However, I have been toying with the idea of converting a short Coffee Table to an Ottoman.  I found what I needed this morning, and the dimensions are perfect for the space we are planning.   It’s like the Universe is reading my mind!  Look past the top, it will be covered, and I will of course be adding wheels……

I love little storage items. I am constantly on the hunt for caddies and unique small storage for Paris Flea Market.  This painted will be perfect.

And finally, as if I didn’t have enough on my plate…..I found a box of plates and a Pyrex bowl.  They were clean too.  And no, that is not a giant cockroach on the plate. Some big piece of leaf or something blew into my garage right before I took the picture.   Unless I get my craft on with plates, I will be donating these.  Much better than them being donated to the dump!

Hope you have a totally trashy week.
