Happy Sunday,
I have had a great weekend. Yesterday I had such a fun time going to a flea market, second hand stores, antique stores and rummage sales with my friend Jen. I found a great old bunny pitcher and the price was great 3.00. As I looked at it I kept thinking this looks so familiar. I looked on the bottom and there was a stamp that said FF 1987. I realized that I had a Fitz and Floyd bunny pitcher. I got on eBay it's starting bid was 47.99. It is good to know what you are looking at and try and learn the value of things before you go, then you will know if you are getting a good deal or not. I have been busy painting an old bench I bought yesterday as well and finishing up my coffee table that I found at Good will for 25.00. I have painted them Canvas Tan (Behr paint from Home Depot)...it looks like a linen white...very pretty and clean looking. I will post some pictures later of what I have painted. I am really having fun sharing this with you. Keep coming back and checking on the progress of my blog as I continue to learn all about this new found love.
Until later have a great day!
Many blessings,
Kelly
I want my blog to be a place where we can share ideas, projects before and after pics. I love decorating and re-purposing old to make new again. I also love to garden and scrapbook, so we can share ideas about all of that as well.

Really
Wednesday, June 22, 2011
I can hardly believe I am doing this. I love, love, love decorating and I have been thinking about doing this for quite some time and now I decided this morning that I was going to do it. I have been reading decorating blogs for quite some time...young house love you were my first inspiration. I have seen a common thread in many of these wonderful blogs about painted wood and how some people do not like it, or have a fear of painting wood ( by the way, that is where I came up with the name of my blog...is it too cheesy?) I have to say my DH (Darling Husband) and I go back and forth on this one on a regular basis. I am slowly changing his mind towards that idea...and I mean SLOWLY. I have however, convinced him that painting our ugly oak cabinets would be an asset in our home. That project will be starting in the next few weeks. I will post pictures when I know more about what I am doing with this blog and learn how to actually do this. If you have any ideas, advice or any words of wisdom please share.
Until Tomorrow, may the rest of your day be filled with many blessings,
Kelly
