~before & after~
I've had this pretty, white Ikea pitcher for a few years now. I had originally given it a Frenchy makeover using waterslide decal paper. Since, I'm trying to "shop the house" this month, I decided to give it a facelift. Because...
...the elements were not kind and this is what it looked like yesterday. Yuck! Thankfully, Goo Gone was able to remove the waterslide decal stickiness, and I was able to replace that label with the fresh sticker in the first picture. I used clear sticker paper this time. I don't love the air bubbles, though, so I will likely return to using the waterslide decal paper.
Speaking of shopping the house, I grabbed this food jar I upcyled many moons ago and gave it a new look by adding the broken wood ruler pictures. It's now the perfect touch of rustic/farmhouse goodness!
Okay, so I did splurge on something new this week. I picked up this Laguna vase at Home Goods yesterday - although it didn't cost me a dime! I had a $10 gift certificate (you get them if you have the TJX credit card), so I popped in and grabbed this beauty. I've wanted one since forever. I simply added some faux flowers from the Dollar Store and I love, love, love it! I love that it was free even more.
