Day 7

An old brass lamp that I have had forever...

Meets After...




The pictures aren't very interesting...I need to get a picture of it with its new shade.

I am so far behind:( A death in my not-so-immediate family has really hit me hard.

Day 6


A Bentwood Rocker that I curbside picked. I really doubted that I could make this thing look better.

Before...
Meets After...

A couple coats of spray paint. I covered the back and seat with a plastic tablecloth. I think it turned out relatively well.

Day 5

Ooops, forgot to add this project yesterday.

This table was free...curbside pick-up. Brass and rattan? Scrubbed it down, gave it two coats of spray paint. Cleaned the glass top.

Day 4

We replaced our outdoor backporch light fixture. I almost tossed it in the garbage, almost.

Meets After...

Here she is all cleaned up. Quick coat of paint. White, of course. I need to buy a piece of glass panel to finish it up. I am going to use it as a votive candle holder!

Day 3


Yard Sale find, $3.00.

Before...
Meets After...

I sanded the top, gave it a coat of white spray paint and decoupaged the floral design on the seat. I gave it two coats of Modge Podge. The wrinkles kind of bugged me at first, but they have grown on me. :)

Oh, and that is Bella. Sweet kitty is very curious and has to be where the action is!

Day 2 of the 30 Days of Projects

This piece was bought for $3.00 at a yard sale in July.
I used some Top Brite to clean it up...

Meets After...

Beautiful!

September's 30 Days of Projects~Day 1, 2011

I am issuing myself a challenge....to post 30 days of projects. I will include some projects that have been completed in the last two months. So here it goes...

Before...a gold wall planter. I've had this thing for several years. I finally broke out the spray paint and gave it a coat or two.


Meets After..I love all the detail that the paint brings up. It looks really pretty with some white blooming Begonia . (I could be wrong...Begonia just doesn't sound right.)
