Flowers

The flower pot use to be an ugly orangish/brown color. I spray painted it celery green. Doesn't it look so much better!

DIY Cheese Dome

I bought this cheese dome for $2 and the candle holder for a $1 at the thrift store. Look what I made. :)

Updated Light Fixture

Remember this "beautiful" light fixture in our main bathroom? I HATED this thing and knew we had to replace. A new light fixture just isn't in the budget right now. I decided to try some spray painting.

I wish I had taken a picture of the first color I sprayed it. I decided to get some silver spray paint. It looked like I had wrapped tin foil around it. It was so funny.

I sprayed it white and bought some new glass. I am not sure what I think about it yet. I think it looks better.

Weekend Full of Projects

Here is some of what I have been working on this weekend! Spray painting like crazy! I can't wait for these items to be done.

Spray Paint Project #2

Here is the lamp I bought at Good Will last Sunday. I spent $4 on the lamp and $5.99 on the lamp shade plus spray paint.

Two coats of primer and 2 coats of white gloss spray paint. I LOVE IT!!!! Now I need to find a new night stand for beside my side of the bed.

1st Spray Paint Project

Today Art and I went to a couple of thrift stores. I was so excited to find some bargains. I found 2 dressers that I wanted SUPER bad, but we have no room for them right now. I did buy a rocking chair for $12. The rocking chair is missing the cushions, but I figured I will make some to match the living room. The rocking chairs with cushions were $39 and I would have recovered the cushions. I bought a lamp for $4, picture frame below for .99 and a lamp shade for $6.

When Art saw the picture frame he asked why I was buying a 1970 gold picture frame. I told him I was going to spray paint it white. He thought I was crazy. I also bought the lamp to spray paint.
