A Little Eye Candy on a Monday

Sunday 30 January 2011

We just returned from Sanibel Island, Florida. *sigh*
I love Minnesota most of the time, but come mid January-mid March, I'm over it. And this year is no exception...we've had more snow than most years, and more is coming tomorrow. I miss garage sales. I miss spray painting.

Ok, pity party over.

To get the week started right, here are some befores and afters of some of my first rehabs that I have never shared before.

Before: drippy white glossy paint with faux denim seat


After: Semi gloss black paint with updated fabric

Before: Wobbly wooden chair with stained seat circa 1970


After: Rustoleum Colonial Red spray paint, distressed with walnut stain and a super fun fabric (this was my first sale at a local occasional shop!)


Before: Curb alert stool...great bones, not so great plastic type cushion

After: Semi-gloss black paint with some pretty fabric

Before: One of a pair of chairs...cute shape that needs updating
After: Heirloom white with floral fabric
And true to form, not the best pictures. But hopefully they are good enough to motivate you to hit Goodwill or another thrift shop this week :)
