The best re-do ever.

My neighbor's had a yard sale a few weeks ago {actually in June} and I found this for $2.00! Originally she was a gold mirror.... I just knew that she would look great with a little spray paint... I am in love with spray paint lately! My first thoughts were that she needed to be a dry erase board. But after some thought I realized that she needed so much more than stinky markers + I already had a smaller dry erase board!

I added some cork to her backing. I like the dark cork the best...
These push pins are nothing more than buttons, felt flowers left over from another project, hot glue and large push pins. They were so much fun to make. I was only going to make 6, you see how that turned out... I used all of my supplies...
Look at her detail, can you imagine her as gold.... It was just not her color...
Flower garden....
Some of my favorite stuff... A sweet note from a friend.... A pic from my sisters wedding- I just could not do with out sentimentals...


Watch out- I am on a projecting war path. I have more to come next week.....

  2. Very clever, Leslee!

    I love the colour you chose for the frame and the cork!

    Your flower garden pins are adorable, and coordinate perfectly with that pretty pink note paper ;)

    You are pure sweetness!

  3. What a beautiful makeover! The new color really does work for her.

    I'm not sure how I landed here but your blog is lovely. You've got some great projects posted here. Love that teal chair for your office. What a beautiful shape and a great color.

    And I saw those same plates at Marshalls and have been thinking about them ever since. I did look at the price tags and they weren't expensive.
