Trashy Tuesday, My Easter is in the Dumps
Welcome to the trashiest day of the week! Trashy Tuesday! Where the junque gets weirder and weirder every week. This week, we are decorating for Easter. I know, it feels like Valentine’s day just left us, but get your Easter Bonnets ready because Easter is only 46 days away. It is never to early to start planning.
My Easter theme started last week when I found this pitcher.
And these Easter Flower pots:
Easter decorations were multiplying in the dumpster like rabbits during the past week! Just this morning I found all of this!!!!
And even more Easter inside of Easter.
Much of the Easter loot will be passed onto Goodwill, but there are some keepers in the mix! 
And not be outshone by Easter. I found these lamps! I had a lovely conversation with the original owner. Just after I muttered under my breath, “who in the world would throw out these lamps????” I heard a voice, “so glad you found our lamps, we were hoping someone would do something with them.” I am positive he meant that someone was ME.
Really? This is why you threw them in the trash outside your apartment? Maybe they see me around those parts and instead of someone, they meant, ME!
In between Dumpster Diving, blogging about it and painting furniture, I can catch up on some light reading. College level literature Anthology. 
I also found some nice grape vine wreaths, Halloween will be parting with them, but the wreaths were actually on my craft store shopping list!
How about some fun tins. These make great storage and are so cute when painted, and even a graphic added.
Plus, they left me individually wrapped snacks! Dumpster Diving can work up an appetite.
Someone has been hitting the bottle, and the pretty bottles. I don’t know why, I keep finding bunches of these. Better get started upcycling them or someone entering the garage might get the wrong impression about what I do in my private time.
And as my favorite Rabbit says, “that, that, thats all folks!”

Boy – that Easter stuff really does seem to multiply …
like rabbits.

Yes, amazing that the things multiplying the fastest were all the bunny decor……

LOL! I think I got really lucky with mine.
ok,,,,,,, i’ve so got to start doing this,,,,,,,,! Love it,,,,,,,,
You should!!! Once you start and find something, you are hooked. Then it becomes like a treasure hunt!
That’s crazy that when Easter is over, or not even begun, folks are out with the old already.
I know!! Either someone was moving and didn’t want to take it with them, or they buy all new stuff every year! It was more Easter Decorations than I think I have had in my 21 years of marriage!
You find the best stuff! Amazing……..
You are a pro junker! Love the little white bunnies!
Thank you so much Darrielle. It has taken some time to hone in the skill, but I think I am pretty good at it now!
I think the people who live near the dumpsters you frequent are having a good time watching you pull their unwanted items out of the trash! You find the best and funniest stufff!
At least that one man is!!! Yikes, I saw him again yesterday afternoon!!! He must think I am just a poor soul! Wait until you see what I share this Tuesday. Even I was astonished at what I found!
wow that is such a great haul
I just love you to pieces! You are so much fun! This is a great find! I can’t believe someone would toss all of that cute Easter stuff, instead of at least donating it somewhere! Glad you will be able to at least donate it so that it can have a proper home! Keep up the good work . . . hugs ~

Jean, what a sweet comment! Thank you! I think sometimes all this stuff just finds me. You will not believe what I found yesterday. Even I was astonished!
