Quick Makeover

I bought this little bar cart at the yard sale about a month ago. I think I paid $2.00. It was ugly but I wanted a little extra storage outside. I think someone made it with pvc pipe...

Here's the before:

Ohhh hunter green! Loves it!

And after:

Hello, Baby Layla & Baby Daisy.

Totally not gold.



I wanted it metallic gold and made a special trip to get the spray paint. BUT the paint I bought was not gold, it was very silver... WTF. Oh well I went with it, and it turned out cute

Almost the Weekend!

Not much to post about today. I painted this little table last night. This was in my daughter’s room and we used it to set her humidifier on. I bought it at Goodwill for oh I don’t remember under $5.00 maybe $2.99?



Here’s my half before, I’m really bad at remembering befores.

(Notice the other projects I'm working on? Two dressers)

And here’s the after, I painted it Oil Rubbed Bronze 1 because I had a full can of it and 2 because I like the gold flecks in it.

(This was taken when it was still a little wet)

I think I am going to use this as a small entry way table until I found something I like better. Oh forgot pictures of it in its new home. I’ll add those later. I put a candle on it and a small picture of Layla at about 8 months old and a small vase of flowers.


Have a great weekend!

Guest Room Table

When we moved into our new house I was so excited to have a guest room... But it is tiny. Like really tiny. So tiny Ben didn't think we were going to be able to fit a full size bed in there. But it did and it is small but our guest's aren't here to spend time in their room they are here to see Layla!

One of my bestie's Jen gave me this table, it was left in her house when she bought it. I kept it dark brown for years and it moved from room to room. It's an older hexagon table, I'm sure you've seen them on your craigslist's I think it might be plastic. Anyways once again no before's, but here's the after in glossy black spray paint!

I also spray painted that cute little $3.00 thrift store lamp. I love yellow right now!
