Finally posting again!! It has be an adventurous past two weeks. . better yet, past month!! Let me catch you up!
~~Got married. . . .
~~Finished up the school year. . with 24 eager cleaners! I had sticker anchors on the floor to show the kids where to stand in line. They loved being able to help to get them up.
| Got to spend QT time with Emily's daughter, Becca. |
| SO excited this is the last time packing the car like this!! |
~~ Started crafting! Since it is the summer . . . and teachers have off. . .I decided to satisfy that craft side of me in-between interviews (fingers crossed. . hopefully more on that later). I am my own Martha Stewart. . or Pinterest addict. . you decide!
Our new coffee table sanded, painted, and put together out of donated pallets!
| Just the beginning. .just wipped down. . all dirt gone! |
| After being white washed. |
| After being white washed. |
| Our new pallet table!! Now we just need a gray couch. . . |
Then came the buffet table that I grew bored with. . so we decided to paint it gray (our new favorite color)!
| First. . to sand the stain off. My least favorite part! |
| The finished product! Love! |
Then I thought we needed a little something for our new coffee table. I went into my first Jo~Ann Craft store and found this for $3:
I then painted it to look like this:
| I'd say success! |
Lastly. . I wanted a rug for the kitchen but did NOT feel like paying $50+ for a rug. So I went to Marshall's and paid $9 for this rug and decided to paint it. Here it is. . . and the perfect fit/design!

ReplyDeleteThank you Kristin!! Nashville is amazing but I miss you all at the beach. . .and the beach itself! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm inspired by you! I'm painting some old bookshelves that have seen much better days. They still won't be worth anything to anyone but me, but it'll be a huge improvement!
