Goodwill, Great Deal…

I absolutely LOVE going to Goodwill.  I can always find a great bargain. I have been looking for an oversized mirror to re-do and I finally found one!!!  And for only $6.99.  I actually spent $13.00 in total at Goodwill and have posted the pics below.  I LOVE JUNKIN!!!  Enjoy!!

A little dusty, but nothing a little elbow grease won’t cure.

A cute basket just in time for Valentine’s Day.

A small brass candelabra…now to find candles to fit it.

I love these plates.  I am trying to collect different ones to hang on the wall in my dining room.

Okay…the art work on this tray is awful…but it’s nothing a little spray paint wont fix!!

Hope you all had a great weekend and found some great deals!!!

Grandma Carter’s Wardrobe…

Since we were snowed in this weekend I decided to get started on a project that I should have done years ago.  My husband was given his grandmother’s wardrobe when she passed.  It’s very pretty but I thought I could do more with it.  I spent Saturday sanding and priming it.  As you can see by the photos I still need to paint and decide whether or not to put the doors back on.  I love the tutorial at Living with Lindsay about painting laminate furniture.  This helped so much!!  If you click on the pics below you can see the scratches and nicks in the wood.

Some people prefer spray primer…for me it just depends on what project I’m working on.  I do however love Zinsser primer.

Now that its been primed Zinsser recommends you wait 7 days for it to cure before you paint.  Now to decide what color???
