Thrifty finds at the 3 hour store

I guess we all have stores we frequent more than others....my store of choice happens to be the Goodwill or as we refer to it... The 3 hour store.  I'm sure no explanation is needed.

On a recent trip I found this:

So I picked it up and walk around browsing and thinking... what sort of plates would I ever find to fit a rectangle shape like that. I thought some more and then I placed it back on the shelf at the store. No, I would never find anything that would work on it.  Up and down the aisles I go still thinking about the cute rack I just placed back on the shelf.  All of a sudden something white catches my eye...

Looks like the right shape, the right size. Now where did I put my rack?  It better still be there or else....

Whew.... a match had been found. What are the odds.... well, my theory is it was a set that somebody had taken it apart and they just needed somebody to find and put back together.

 I'm glad I was the matchmaker... cause look what a little soap, water and spray paint did for my little find....

A nice addition to the coffee bar on my counter....
