Oh the things we can do with our yard tools!! I LOVE IT

So this was very exciting for me.. a friend of mine asked me to do something, anything with a rake that she had from her mom.. I guess the look on my face pretty much said.."okay...and that is?".. well much to my amazement when she brought it to me, I was pleasantly surprised that this old rusty rake was actually very vintage and perfectly aged. Keep in mind, it was only the "rake" part, not the long pole/handle.. but she wanted it possibly painted and antique white and wasn't sure what else it needed.. well, I really liked the before look of it but for using it as a decor piece, it definitely needed a face lift.. so with just some antique white paint and sanding, it was a very very simple fix and turned out great! she loved it.. this would have been perfect to use with some chalk paint as well (love that stuff!).. so see what we can do with even yard tools!!

I'm back at it again finally! yay!!

Well after not posting much recently on my blog (which I feel so out of place when I don't.. [sad face]), I'm back at it, I still have lots of work to be done but lots have been done :) .. I've been sick the past few weeks with the dreadful thing going around called the flu! icky!  anyway, its gone now and I am back feeling 100% better :) .. I was able to finish this cute little side table this weekend.. perfect for a little corner/vignette, entry way, bathroom or hallway.. it's made just for that perfect little corner that you can't seem to find anything to fit.. well.......now you have! This piece is only $35 and would love to be a part of your home ;)
