We found a few good things which I will show you later, but today I wanted to share a redo of a chest my brother built and gave me about 37 years ago. It was originally used for a toy box. He made it for me because as a teen I had always wanted a hope chest but never was fortunate enough to have one. so being a great brother he made one for me after I got married.<br />
<br />
Here is a pic of the chest after two children and five grandchildren using it as a toy box. <br />

After the first coat of Annie Sloan White, I decided on a stencil to add a bit of character. Can you see the old handles below on the right?<br />

I decided to take the stencil to another level and make it somewhat dimensional with plastic wood. Not the best choice in products to make a stencil stand out. I will be looking into other products if I ever try this again. <br />
<br />
Remember I said I decided on another handle for the side? Here is the before. Of course I had started painting on them. <br />

The weather was perfect for the grandkids to have their egg hunt. Such a good time for them. While I enjoy the décor and coming of spring, the true meaning of Easter, of course is the empty tomb. An empty tomb which gives us a beautiful gift of eternal life. </span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Christmas is my favorite holiday.. But because I am lazy I have put off putting up my living room tree for several years. So this year I decided to pull out the ornaments and ask hubby to get us a real tree. As usual for him he returned with the most beautiful tree.. perfectly shaped. Of course then the trip to the attic to find all the many boxes of ornaments.. There was a total of six boxes.. you know those larger Rubbermaid containers.. So excited I unpack and decorate the tree.. after hours I finished.. I stepped back and .. whew.. it was terrible.. my ornaments looked dated.. my ribbon looked terrible. A late call in the evening to a friend, "will you ride with me to Carolina Pottery"? An hour each was but she agrees. I replaced the gold angels and some other gold ornaments and replaced them with burlap flowers, some filler for the top and new ribbons. Love it! Updated new tree for me.. I guess the ornaments may have not been that bad but I had been using the same ones for 15 years.. guess it was time for a change. I just love the new tree.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Then I moved on to the kitchen tree.. a tree I have been collecting ornaments for for 6 years with one of my Granddaughters. The whole tree has to do with eating and baking.. Except for one wooden teddy bear that my Grandma painted and gave me in the 80's. </span></div>

I have to say I was dreading it.. not really into the whole birthday thing since I have gotten older. I mean it's just another day right? Getting older, another year, presents, and cake. Well this year things took a turn and proved me wrong.. it is not what it is about. I took the day to reflect on my blessings. I am the mother of two beautiful girls that have given me 5 (FIVE) beautiful grandchildren! All the sudden my small family of four has become a beautiful family of 11. What a wonderful thing, huh?<br />
<br />
I also have been blessed with an wonderful hobby or as most would say talent of sewing.. take a look at these cookies my daughter made for me!!! How amazing are these? <br />

I have my health, my home. I have the hope of a miracle drug coming forward that will change life as we know it now in the next coming year. (more to come about that) </div>

We did have a birthday celebration .. we had a wonderful dinner out, there were great presents, cookies (beautiful cookies).. but most of all it was a time to enjoy family and reflect on how much the Lord has blessed me. I think this year was the year to change what a birthday means to me. It will no longer be about an aging process, a cake, or presents.. it will now be a celebration of what a wonderful life I have and the wonderful things to come.</div>

I have not posted since last spring! Somehow for me holding down a full time job and blogging don't mesh together so well. I did however, finally put out my Halloween decorations and wanted to share them with you. <br />

Do you ever wonder how on earth you are so blessed? I do.... I am so thankful the Lord allows me to have such pretty things in life to enjoy. So that is my round up of Halloween... Hopefully, I can get some pics up of the yard before the fall season is over. Thanks so much for stopping by. I'll be taking a peek at what you guys have been up to. Have a blessed week.<br />

Since I started a full time job, I have really had a hard time carving out the time to blog but I can't throw in the towel. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Finally.. I have a couple of spare minutes so I wanted to share how a little mirror project turned out for me. I found this old mirror ona a </span><span style="font-size: large;">facebook group called buy, sell, trade. Do any of you have a local group you buy used items from other than Craigs? This was a diamond in the rough, y</span><span style="font-size: large;">ou know the ugly plastic 50, 60's stuff.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">In spite of the predicted cold week, I am getting excited about the arrival of spring. Plants are peeking their heads about ground. Robins chirping and hopping all over my yard.. all signs spring is coming. A big part of my spring is to drag out all my bunnies, and of course <em>IF</em> needed ,buy some new ones</span>.<br />

The magazine was published by Butterick in the early 1900's. Since it was in pretty rough condition I wanted to use the cover to spruce things up. Do you ever buy one item that seems to snowball a project?</span><br />

Where was I at that day? Anyway, this was a whooping $10 table I purchased from GW. Probably to date has ended up being one of my best finds. This was also was my first adventure with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint.</span><br />

I sure do.. I found this beauty on a local site similar to Craig's List. After a coat of Anna Sloan chalkpaint and some wax I knew I had a great score.. Did I tell you I paid only $30 for this huge mirror? I thought it was a great price.. I know there are some masters out there that have finds for a lot less but, considering the same size at Home Goods runs close to $200 it was a deal to me. <br />

Chalk paint dries to a chalky finish so it needs to have a layer of wax applied over the paint when it dries. This is the stage I always think I made a mistake. </div>

Annie Sloan has stained and clear waxes. After I waxed clear I applied a light coat of the stained wax and wiped it off the surface.. it stays in the grooves. I used some sandpaper on some wear areas.</div>

Every year as soon as the sun peaks thru I start dreaming of how to improve our outdoor space, the porch. Here are some lovely porch ideas I wanted to share with you. <br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Isn't this a beautiful hutch? It all started when my mother decided she wanted a new hutch. She had bought a new dining room table but still had her 70's French Provencial dining room hutch.....Mom announced, "I am buying a new hutch". Of course, my big mouth says, "no way, yours is perfect, it just needs a coat of paint".. duhhh... did I really think my Mom at 78 years old would paint a hutch? She has asthma on top of that.. no way could she do that.. Nope, but what she could do a great job of was to nag me to do it... So, what do I do? Nag poor hubs to do it.. which he gladly did.. "We" decided we could take the easy way out and not paint the shelves so "we" wouldn't have to take the back of the cabinet off.. well that went over like a lead baloon.. the back was something that looked like gold wallpaper out of the Brady Bunch's home. Then there was the GOLD diamonds all over the glass front. Of course I give hubs the, "what if "we" speech. Bless his heart, he is good as gold.. he took the back off the back and painted the shelves. With a razor blade he chipped off all that french gold paint off the glass. At 8:00 pm I made a made a mad dash to JoAnns to find the perfect black and white fabric to staple over the hidious gold back.. Perfect! When will I ever learn to take before pictures? Arggghhh I missed the perfect opportunity to capture a dramatic change of an old piece of furniture. I just about forgot.. Mom cried when she saw her old piece (which I filled w/ all finds from the thrift store) Just goes to show, nothing is trash, there is beauty in all that old stuff our parents and grandparents own. As the old saying goes, what's old is new again. </span> <br />

<span style="font-size: x-large;">Not much blogging for me recently and I have certainly missed visiting everyone. I have been wondering if I will ever get back to things on a regular basis again. I hope everyone had a wonderful Halloween. For me, this was the official way to kick off the fall/winter holidays. Today we had a little family get-together. Just a few pics of my little set up for the kiddies (they loved it.) I love dressing up everything in the house for the kids.. I wish you could have seen their faces, it was wonderful. I got a lot of good deals from the Dollar Store and from a half off sale at Pier One. </span><br />

I have gotten approval and waiting on equipment and then to home sweet home! I have started getting my office ready have a desk but nothing else is done. I am sure it will take some time but it will get there.<br />
I really haven't had time to take any new pics for a blog and not much time for shopping. There is still time for some computer surfing. I ran across one pic and then you know the rest of the story, one thing leads to another. I love this use of turquoise in decorating and wanted to share it with you guys. Unfortunately, I don't think I can ease this color into my decorating scheme, but, it sure is pretty.<br />

Honestly, this working full time is for the birds! I am soo glad I can finally show you the results. I hope you like it. I was not sure if I wanted to finish the top or not since it was in such bad shape. Hubs sanded it down as much as he could without ruining it. There are still some spots and it is not perfect but I think it is beautiful.<br />

I then mixed some dark wax with mineral spirits and painted in the grooves w/ a small bush. I must admit I think I did things backward.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I think I figured out the art to this staining with dark wax, ceramics! Yest ceramics like painted in the 70's and 80's. Seems that is the closest thing to compare this process to. Now if your not old enough to remember, the rage in doing projects back then was ceramics (Santas, vases, plates you name it). In the early days we painted over raw material and it would be fired, but later you would buy a piece and paint and stain it. I did this Santa in the late 70's. The comparison </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">would be, you have to learn to control the stain on the painted project. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Anybody else done ceramics?</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjCHw2djq7cdrbi9YcR1G8oaPthCC3hCcC1XMY0vURynwylgiAvVpAhZbwAU2KTcEtFcH9au4r6_21Bo2nomu-7I6xNXQseOgMRfLqZMnlEnXqQb_loMygkClpxo94wmMK-59XtBig0uM/s1600/blogSanta.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" qaa="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjCHw2djq7cdrbi9YcR1G8oaPthCC3hCcC1XMY0vURynwylgiAvVpAhZbwAU2KTcEtFcH9au4r6_21Bo2nomu-7I6xNXQseOgMRfLqZMnlEnXqQb_loMygkClpxo94wmMK-59XtBig0uM/s640/blogSanta.jpg" width="354" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">BTW, I have no idea what ended up being stamped on my pic from my old blog.

I am still trying to hang on with this blogging and my new full time job. Whew! Half way there to getting to work from home... whooo hooo! There are 101 reasons to be a blogger but I think following you guys is the #1 reason. I learn soooo much. Such wonderful decorators out there. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I really do study on what you guys are doing. Why? One reason is your homes are so beautiful. Two, now that I am quickly approaching my late 50's.. yep past the half way mark... I really don't want the house to turn into an "old persons home" as my kids used to say when they were young.. I don't know exactly what that emcompasses, I just know I don't want mine to be one.. Lol. So slowly, I am changing out some things and adding some new things. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I found this beauty while on vacation in Hendersonville, NC. Funny out of everything I could have bought in the lovely mountains of N.C., I chose a cow! Looking around in Blogville, I am not alone in move love of the bovine. I paid a whooping $7.00 for her.</span><br />

I went over to my daughter's after work and waxed her table and chairs her husband had painted with Chalk Paint and it turned out so pretty I decided to do something for me. So, I tackled probably the most difficult thing in the house. I found this little plant stand at GW for $10 I think. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">When I got started I couldn't stop! I wanted to splash some paint on everything.. good thing I didn't have more time. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I called hubby in to look at the top to decide if I should paint the top or leave it. Being the the sweet guy he is, he took the whole thing apart to fix the gaps. He thinks the top is not original because it was never nailed down properly. Boy, am I glad someone put this one on it. I love it. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">It is drying from glue so I didn't get to finish it. I think I may order the Annie Sloan clear wax before I finish. I love the consistency of her dark wax so much more than the clear wax I bought at the big box store. </span></div>

Hubs, " didn't look real but it had stuff running out of his eyes, so I know it must be real!" Me, yep.

Somehow every holiday lately I end up a little tired, since we usually have the family functions at our house. Still, I love having the family. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">Since it was a long weekend, when I got off work Friday, I thought I would stop at Home Goods.

My question is this, are these Country or French Country. I prefer to think of them as Country French.. or is it French Country? I thought my girls would hate them but to my surpise the loved them! (That would lead me to believe they are not country) I really thought I would get that look and then a, "mommm" but nope.. they actually loved them. You have to love Home Goods for $20 a piece for a hog and a sheep. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlEF9UifgFK9sHzRlufstCuensiZJ_VeMZiffHtGs0WsCniMKYrRNg0FdyZS4aAxAiAe6j-djBFZ93WCvFEDkA-RktbNi2mFnRjwj4kGZtcRnX3HJVNdS82Lrm_nZ_V-rJsbf_OD9LbdM/s1600/1french+country+and+contest+005.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="490" i$="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlEF9UifgFK9sHzRlufstCuensiZJ_VeMZiffHtGs0WsCniMKYrRNg0FdyZS4aAxAiAe6j-djBFZ93WCvFEDkA-RktbNi2mFnRjwj4kGZtcRnX3HJVNdS82Lrm_nZ_V-rJsbf_OD9LbdM/s640/1french+country+and+contest+005.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><span style="font-size: large;">I had a little trouble figuring out where to put them but think I found a good spot. </span><span style="font-size: large;">For now, they are setttled in beside the hutch.. yep the hutch..

Hubs, "No." But not using good judgement, I talked him into the trip. What was I thinking? It was hot as blue blazes today and would be even hotter at the flea market because it is set up on black asphalt. The purpose of the trip was to find something pretty to hang on Hubby's shed. Of course, I didn't tell him that. I am not crazy yet. (Although I did drag him to the thrift store again this weekend and that wasn't good judgement.) When we got there I headed straight for the guy with all the old iron pieces for the yard. He has been out there peddling his goods for years. Every weekend he has something a little different. This time he had trailer bed full of small iron items, like plaques of pigs, roosters and devil heads..yes I said devil heads. I thought at first they were like those greek sun faces, but nope, these guys had horns. I think they are old.. Hubby, "that junk ain't old." Me, "yep I guess they are, I saw one of the Planter's Peanut man. Remember him?" A peanut wearing a top hat. Anyway, nothing I coudn't live without, not worth arguing with hubby about. I did see a iron work scroll panel that would be perfect for the side of his shed. The guy wouldn't come down a penny under $40 but that wasn't a bad price but Hubs wasn't convinced. Finally I did talk hubs into getting it. Do you know how hard it is to talk your husband into buying something to pretty up his shed is? He wasn't the happiest in the world but off he went to the car to bring up to load the panel. While he was gone, I saw it.. WOW.. I thought, this thing must be at least $500. She was a beauty, so chic. Reluctantly I asked the guy, "How much for this", while rubbing it like it was a pet or something. The guys granddaugther says to him, "you have to load it up to take home." The guy, "you can take it home for $175 right now." WHAT?? Of course I met hubs at his car door when he pulled up to tell him about the deal. He stared at me for a minute and said, "give the man a check." Are you kidding me? I was having trouble getting him to buy a scroll. Maybe it was a ploy to keep me from hanging something pretty on the shed. But I think it was him just being kind to me. He really is ..</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">I have wanted an arbor for years. I knew just where I would put it if I ever got one. I recently spied one in the garden center near my home with a hefty price tag on it.. sigh... But today, there she was, in all her glory of chippy paint (probably lead) and a nice patina to boot. I love it more than the one at the garden center.</span><br />
