Easter Projects!

In an effort to get my home decorated for Easter I had to get thrifty! Check out these cute projects we threw together!

This was from the first round of thrifting, found some cute owls, birds and candle holders!

Cute owls! UGLY color! (I'll fix that)

 

Cute little birds needing an update...

Priming!

 Enter a bit of turquoise, yellow and white spray paint!

 Add a bit of heavy duty apoxy to some dollar store vases and glass candle stick holders and you get apothecary jars!

Here I added a thrift store white candle stick to a dollar store plate to make a cake pedestal.

 

Some simple brass candle sticks added a pop of color for my dyed Easter Eggs!  (found those at a thrift store for $3.50 for the set of 6. SCORE!)

Another brass candle stick plus a couple of glass holders....

 

Dollar Store bowl and plate plus a thrifted glass candle holder.....CHIP AND DIP Bowl!

Total: $2.50!

Thrifted glass canisters and candle sticks created a set of apothecary jars for my bathroom!

Total: $ 6.00!

Turquoise Headboard

My bedroom redo is coming along SLOWLY. But I finally finished my turquoise headboard! You are going to have to believe me when I say it was UGLY. We pulled it out of the back of a dusty barn auction for 5 bucks!!! I am sorry the pic is horrible and its the brown one BEHIND this headboard! Sorry it’s the only pic that I have! Can you see it??

　
　　
Anyways we are doing my bedroom in Grey & White with a pop of Turquoise! So we decided the headboard need the POP! We used SPRAY PAINT! Yes spray paint. I love me some Krylon! We put several coats of Polycrylic in Satin on top for protection. I think it WORKS! What do you think?

Brand New Week! Brand New Projects!

I just thought I would share a few projects I was working on in the workshop today! Man it was HOT! Gotta love this Texas heat. 101 degrees today! Cooler than last week! ;)
Primed and painted up a few mirror projects! LUV LUV those colors!

Also finished up this funky little tray! The color is Night Tide by Rustoleum. And the fabric is a furry little zebra print I have had for a while and was coveting! I can't remember where I got it and I only had a little 2 foot piece! I finally broke down and used it. It was just perfect for this little tray! This piece will be going on ETSY today!

Check back this week for lots of finished projects!
