Thrift Store Find

I found this wonderful chair at my neighborhood thrift store...I was so happy to find it because I was in need of a nice chair for my daughters desk that I purchased on craigslist.

They had an array of chairs but none of them spoke to my heart until I saw this one and it said "I am the one you're looking for!" the chair looks a lot wider in the picture then it is in person.

The chair must be an antique because it is small compared to today's dinning chairs and the craftsmanship and sturdiness of the chair is excellent and so was the price at $8!

Once I cleaned it up and spray painted and put on some new fabric for the seat it looked GREAT and as I suspected when I first laid my eyes on it.....It looked as though it was meant for my daughters desk!

Here is a close up of the detail of the chair I just love the lines on this little chair it is so feminine.

I love the chunky legs .

Here it is all wiped down and ready to be painted.

TaDa! here it is all painted and in it's new home and serving a new purpose.

Don't cha just think that it was made to go with the desk?

God Bless!

In My Nest: My Sweet Little Girls Room

I have been really busy around the nest this week....painting and spray painting and more painting! I am so done with painting that I don't want to see another paint brush or can of spray paint for months!!!!

Oh but I must endure some more spray paint in the name of decorating my bookshelf (I'll tell ya'll more about this in another post).

I am so happy to be finished with the children's room and I am so happy with the results...I just love my daughters room...ohhh but I also sooo love my son's room (I better take pictures before they destroy it!).

Here are a few pics of my daughters room .....Thanks so much for taking a look and God Bless Ya'll!

Coming Up For Air!

Whew! No I am not done with my "Spring Cleaning" also known as "Home Renovation" yet, LOL! I really hope that I'll be done by the mid of April but the way things are going I just pray to get done!

I did get our room all cleaned out and painted...Yippie! I feell ashamed to say this...... but we have never painted our bedroom...it was a very ugly old white color that was looking tan because it was so old. We also had some plaster work to do in the room so that took some time. We finally finished last week......but guess what? I can't find the camera! I can't take pictures to show ya'll all the hard work we did.....I am sad :-(

Maybe the camera is hiding under the pile of junk in the basement that is constantly piling up with each and ever passing day. I'm organizing and boxing things up to take over to my aunts home to store in her garage until the garage sale that we are all having in June or July. That's fine by me cause at least I get to get the junk out of my home and put it into someone else's until the sale.....she does not mind, trust me!

I will be on the look out for the camera so that I can show you all some pictures of my progress, I am slowly but surely decorating but I am not in a rush to just put anything up for just the sake of it...I really want to put things up that my family and I will enjoy. So some spots of the kitchen look rather bare and some spots in our bedroom look bare as well but it's CLEAN...YEA!

So until then I will continue to press on with my "Spring Cleaning" also known as "Home Renovation" and I really hope to find that camera....now where would a camera hide? Humm?????

God Bless You All & Your Families!
