Welcome

I was prompted to blog when I saw Jennifer's invitation to her garden tour link party.

I have been really busy working in the yard so I decided to join the party.

I glued teacups to some old chair legs I had.  They can be bird feeders, but mine are unfortunately breeding cups for mosquitoes right now.  They look really great though.

The pool officially opened Memorial Day.

I am absolutely loving pinterest!  The incredibly beat up piece below was about to be put on the curb when suddenly it became a treasure due to some "pinspiration."  Put flowers in the drawers! Wow, I never would have thought of that one!

Here is a great link party with numerous ideas and inspiration for redoing furniture.  This piece simply had too much water damage as you can see from the warped wood on top.  A can of spray paint and some sand paper was not the answer for this one...
The chalk board was once a mirror.

I am always acquiring old chairs.  Here is one of many ways I use them.

I just hinged old shutters together to make this arbor.

 

Here is yet another pinterest idea I used.  I hammered old spoons until they were flat and then I dipped them in chalkboard paint.  Check out this link party for other great ideas.
