The COLOR is Aqua

Okay I'm a little forget me Nelly, because I thought I had pics of it painted but not stained. But NOPE, NADA, ZERO, ZILCH(Everyone is probably getting the point so I will stop). I hate it when I do this.

The color is from Rustoleum as well in AQUA Baby, I mean the color is just Aqua and I added the BABY. I also used the glaze on this piece and I LIKE, too I Love the details in this piece and the other piece as well. I was just thinking how crazy it is that this was IN in the 50, 60, 70 and it's COMM-IN BACK. I LOVE IT. If you are interest in this piece it is FOR SALE just email me.

The Color is Summer Squash-SOLD

Here is one of the colors I choose for the end tables. It makes me want the weather to be warm and sunny.

I thought the top was kinda plain and dull. So I vamped it up-not vamp as in vampire but just Vamped. I just made that word up and I'm tired so hopefully I am making sense??!!! I gave it some PIZ-A-ZZ. I think it just gives that little extra appeal. Well it does for me, anyway!!. I used a glaze on this piece for the first time. I usually use stain, but out here in blogger land people rant and rave about the tinted Ralph Lauren glaze. So I tried it, a little different but I LIKE. Here she is with no handles and NO VamPin and NO PIZ-A-ZZ. Again, NO VamPin or PIZ-A-ZZ!!!]] This is Summer Squash by Rustoleum in it's natuarl form. It's almost a pale yellow. But I LIKE. Another all natuaral pic. If interested this piece is FOR SALE just email me.

Valentine Decor

I made this for me front door about 3 years ago. I still LOVE it when Valentines comes around.

The Hugs and Kisses were a set that I got from Heartland Paper Co. in Bountiful 2 years ago. I made the wreath from the inspiration of Studio 5 last year. The candles are from the DI and I added valentine scrapbook paper and embellishments to them. I made the Love Blocks. Found the cute red candle holder at the DI for .75 cents-SCORE. Also made the heart picture after Jen from Tatertots and Jello. I cut out the little wood hearts with our Miter Saw.

What Color Did I Choose???!!!

Check back for what colors I choose for the two end tables. I am staining them tomorrow and posting the pics. See you soon. Ashley

Valentines Wreath

I decided to make a fabric tie wreath, after seeing some of the cuttest ones made on tatertots and jello. So this is my Valentine fabric tie wreath.

I went to JoAnnes and bought 4 different fabrics and bought 3/4 a yard of each. Cut the fabrics in 1 inch strips and then cut the strips into 6 inch pieces. Hopefully the made sense??Look at the pic below.

This is the fabric and the heart shaped wreath I found at Savers for $1.99. I just tied the 6 inch strips around the frame of the heart and left the stuff that it was made out of on it. I saw this exact heart shaped wreath at JoAnnes for 10.99. I was glad I only paid a 1.99(which I thought was kinda expensive for a thrift store)

DI Finds

I found these candle holders at the DI. I just love what a can of spray paint can do to things. I made these cute balls last year after watching an episode of Studio 5. I needed something to put them on. I Love Spray paint. They look totally amazing This one is my FAVORITE out of the three. I love the white ball on it.

I added the flowers with the scraps left over from making my Valentines wreath.

Gotta LOVE the DI and I only paid a dollar for each of them. Which is good they are complete brass. They are heavy little candle holders.

This is ma Favorite ball and Flower. I am going to make more to put in a clear vase.

Carrie's Bench

This bench is for Carrie. Hopefully she loves it as much as I do.

This is the bench before it's all primed. You will never guess where I found this baby crib????!!! I was going to Lucas Lumbar to get wood for some of my crafting projects. We drove past a hug building at 50 MPH and what did I see poking out of the garbage can as we flew by. This BEAUTIFUL crib. I was so excited, but of course my husband would NOT NOT turn around if his life depended on it. So the next day on my way to work I stopped at the hug building and parked next to the garbage can, looked around to see if anyone was watching-NOP NO ONE. Except the cars speeding past at 50 MPH. Grabbed the crib out of the garbage can and threw it in the back of the Subaru. Got in my car and drove to work.

This is the best dumpster find I have found thus far. Carrie I hope you love it! I am painting it tommorrow.
