This week grandma and I decided to hit the thrift store. We haven't been in awhile because of her not feeling well. :( We saw this bench and we knew we could make it cute. So into our cart it went! It was just so drab and screaming for a springtime makeover!
I sent the hubs to get us some ASCP in Arles, Florence and Duck Egg. He goes for us because I get it down by it is down by his work which is really out of the way for me. He is a keeper for sure. Anyways enough about my wonderful husband. On to the paint. Oh my my, let me tell you I love all three of them. I couldn't put my paint brush down today. I kept wanting to give makeovers! These three colors make me so excited for spring and summer.
I painted the bench in Arles, Duck Egg and Old White and gave it a coat of dark wax. It is now ready for the Sugar Plum Bazaar that is this weekend! Crossing fingers that our weather cooperates and snows just a lil bit rather than the 6-12" they are predicting .
What do you all think? Does it make you excited for spring?
Tomorrow I will be showing you more on the chalk board shutter shown in the picture above!
