My Crow on a Sunflower Nodder

I had a good time making these rusty old spring nodders yesterday! I thought that they turned out really well too.

My Craiglist Ad for Springs!

I got an email Thursday from a lady from Craigslist who had a box springs and mattress that she was giving away, and all I had to do was just pick them up. 

I am still looking for an automatic pickup truck that I can afford so I had to ask my neighbor to go get them for me. 

He could not find the house from the directions that she had given me Thursday, and it was Saturday before I could reach her again to get new directions. 

He found them this time, and he only wanted a few dollars to cover his gas so I gave him $15 and a big thank you.

I wanted to get the covers off the springs so that they could begin the rusting process using the rain that we have been getting today, and supposed to get  and tomorrow so I took the covers off when I caught a few minutes lull in the rain. 

I was very disappointed to find that the box springs were not a type of springs that I could use, but the mattress had over 300 of the hourglass type springs so not a bad haul for $15.
