I am in the process of giving this Home Goods' wood tote a makeover. I actually remembered to take some before photos for once: Not loving the yucky brown. I bought it a couple of years ago and I don't quite remember why. She ain't pretty. And after sitting in the tea room holding magazines and books for a couple of years, she was filled with cobwebs and other little creature remnants. Bleah! Right now she's sitting in...
It's my favorite time of the week: White Wednesday (even if it is only Tuesday)! This tray was a garage sale find from last year and since I left it out over the summer, it got a little, um, dirty. So over the weekend I gave it a fresh coat of white paint: Since I'm keeping it indoors this year, I wanted to give it a Frenchy touch, so I printed out this great image...
A couple of weeks ago, my 4 year old and I saved this cute little table from someone's trash. As I was putting it in the car, he asked if he could have it for his room.

All it took was a few coats of pink...

And what better way to celebrate the first day of this lovely season then with some mini clay pots: I had painted these an aqua blue a couple of years ago but I decided I might like white a little better. I gave each a few coats of spray paint and then added some Frenchy touches. For the first one, I used a Paris sticker and...
Well it seems the warmer weather is finally here to stay (I hope, I hope!). We spent a lovely weekend outdoors, doing some much-needed Spring cleaning around the yard. It was also the perfect weekend to get some spray painting in. Remember this little bench I found at an estate sale earlier this month? I finally got around to sprucing it up: After cleaning off all of the dust and cobwebs, I gave it a...
