A Makeover for Mom

Now that my mom's apartment is all fixed and back together after the water damage we had, she took some time out and went shopping! She found this birdcage is Home Goods.....

 She likes the one I have in my bedroom and wanted to copy it. So out came the paint.....
                                                  MINE

 So it went from looking like this.......

 To this...... Sprayed the whole thing with dark grey spray paint as the base coat.

Then out came AS chalk paint in old white, sanded and waxed and now we have this......

And here it is hanging in it's new home.......

I'll be back to give you a tour's of mom's bedroom soon! We are still doing a little tweaking. Have a great weekend!  Martina

A Simple Fall Centerpiece

 A simple fall centerpiece  for the kitchen table. I found this fall floral arrangement with the candle holder in Kohls a few years ago. Added a little burlap to the tray for some added texture and stuck this right in the middle. Oh and don't forget the pumpkin spice candle burning, boy that smells good!

Simple and easy and only took about 10 minutes to put together. Thanks so much for stopping by and have a great week! 
I can't believe I hit 100 posts!! I thought it would take forever! Stay tuned for a Giveaway:)  Martina
