I love the D.I.! I never thought I would say that... but look what it has brought to me in the past 48 hours...ah....gems!

old samsonite luggage, thinking about adding a little paint to one side.. more pictures to come....


how cool is this?! Can't hold much, but I couldn't pass it up.

pyrex--matches another piece I found shown below...

will move with me to logan and hang in my apartment!

tiny little pyrex dish with lid! so cute.

awesome blue wallet.
I am nearly speechless with my good finds!

before and after: round two

My favorite before and after yet! This is a chair I picked up for $8.00 and my mom found the seat cover for $5.00! The chair was pretty sick in the beginning but now I love it!


The old fabric from the chair. The green was on top and then there was a navy blue fabric below that.


After sanding the chair down the painting began! A nice "lemon grass" green.



Finished!

before and after

A wooden mirror I picked for $5.00 and gave a slight face lift. Should work nice in my apartment this fall!


here it comes....

the beginning of my pyrex collection. beauties.

Desk

Here are the photos of the desk I am in the process of re-doing. It was an excellent D.I. find by my mom and will be taken to school with me this fall! It is all stained now, I just have to sand a few more drawers down and put the handles back on. Finished photos to come later!




I thought my thumbs were going to fall off by the end of this....





Thanks for your help and the good find Mom!

Colorado!

Here are my photos from Colorado! This was when we were in Mesa Verde which was amazing. Sorry I didn't have many pictures, I need to be better at getting my camera out.


love this little chub

thank you for the fun trip mom & dad!
