Bargin Corner Finds

The Hob Lob and GW are so good to me... I find everything I need only by checking the far back corners in the stores. It never fails! Whoo Hooo

Gold finial $4.00; which must be painted. 70's plastic frame.30 (no chips, no cracks), flower pot .30 cents, 2 Hob lob carved candles originally priced at 12.99 and 14.99; I got mine for $1.20 each UNBELIEVABLE DEAL! Leather picture frames .30 cents for both, scented oil another .30 cents, and the square candle holders; the set for .30 cents.

I have a BBQ table that I will show you in a later post.

Dinning Room Re-Do

It's been a busy weekend. Thanks Debbie for motivating me =)

Before

Notice the dinning set and curio?

After

First coat on table since I ran out of steam in between laundry, lunch, dinner and the what nots.
Anywho, I used Behr Premium Plus Mocha Latte. I looks absolutely delicious... Makes want to drink a latte.

I added the rug and metal scroll thingy I already had here in the house.

Next weeks projects;

1. Finish kitchen table
2. Paint wood trim in hallway
3. Paint main bathroom

Why are weekends so short? =)

Using Jute,,, Ah so simple

This is my first using jute and I'm not done yet =) I have so many other things to "jute" yet.

Here's a shot with out the flash. It looks so awsome in 'real' life with the soft glow of the candles.

My son had a great idea; dress up a can for his pencils and markers for the desk (he's always thinking green).

Decorative balls can run anywhere from 1.99 to 6.99 each, here is my version of decorative balls. Jute!

What I used; glue gun, jute $1.00 and 5 balls $1.00, all from the dollar store.

Lastly;

How do you use jute?
