Cute DVD Storage


It seems like I am crazy about blue these days. 

I got this old metal storage container at a thrift store for 2 dollars.  I wanted to spray paint it but couldn't find the right color of blue in a can.  I mixed some white paint with a blue sample I found at ACE and came up with this color.  It is perfect for holding the kiddos dvd's.

I LOVE IT!

Hutch re-do

I promised crafts over a week ago so here goes. 

This is a little project Randy and I worked on together.  I picked up this Hutch at a thrift store quite a while ago and finally got around to painting it.  Originally the back of the hutch had a mirror that was broken and the glass shelves were missing.  I am assuming they had been broken also.  You can see the bottom piece in the background with a coat of white paint already on it.





We spray painted it white and added white bead board to the back.  We purchased new glass shelves, and added new white ceramic knobs.  Then we sanded it to give it that shabby look.

I love the way it turned out.  Guess what!  She is for sale.  I am asking $300.00 for her.  Please contact me if you are interested and you live in Arizona.

Thanks for looking.

Hello!

Is anybody out there?    I decided to give this blogging thing another go.  School will be starting soon so maybe I will have a little time on my hands.  We will have to see.  I thought I would post my favorite picture from our Oregon vacation this summer.  This is Dad and some of my brothers out on the lake doing some fishing.  I don't think they caught anything but they sure had fun. 

I have lots of fun craft projects to show so check back soon.
