Starting those projects!

So sorry that I haven’t been blogging lately.  I have been soooo busy painting and projecting that I haven’t had  a spare moment.  Although it’s cooold here this week, we had beautiful weather last week and I was painting like crazy  trying to complete some projects for my booth at the Rink.  Did I take a single picture?  NO!  DUH!

So I’m cheating.  Yep you heard me right.  Cheating and showing you a project that I actually completed right before Christmas.

New stools for the kitchen.

Retro!

I love this kitchen.  Including her stools at the counter.   So I decided it was time for the rooster stools to find a new home.  Just a couple of days later, I walked into the Rink and there they were!  Filthy dirty and in need of paint.  BUT…..only $15.00 each!

And here they are today.  Repainted and clean.  I left the bases the way that I found them.  Just cleaning all of the "yuk” off of them made a huge difference.   And I didn’t want mine quite as distressed.   I did use a light mocha colored glaze.   We really love them!  They’re lighter weight, easier to move to sweep under, and they swivel.  Much more practical for us.

Not much else has been happening at our house.

Lots of napping.

A little rearranging.

And that’s about it.

We’re starting to get my Mother’s house ready to sell.  It should make for some great blogging material.  We’re painting EVERY room in the house and staging it!  Yikes!!  But it’s time to move on.  It’s been kind of like a big black cloud hanging over our heads.  I promise to take the camera.  We’ll have some great before and after photos…….we hope. :)

See ya!
