Painted Metal Chairs

Every year my parents host a 4th of July party, it is always a blast and we look forward to it every year. This year my Mom decided to have a little fun with some of their rusty metal chairs we use. Here is the before:

Now for a little of this:
And the finished product (well, almost...we still have some more chairs to do in aqua blue but they didn't have that color of spray paint that day)
  

So cute right? I am loving how colorful and fun they are! Such a quick and easy fix to make for some outdoor entertaining. I hope you're all having a great summer! We have been super busy and so far there seems to be no sign of it stopping. I can't believe it is almost July.

Happy Memorial Day

Just wanted to pop in and say Happy Memorial Day, I don't know about your household but with kindergarten graduation and school finally being out...things have just been crazy! I will hopefully have more time to catch up on fun projects I have completed, but until then just wanted to send out a reminder of my summer (more varieties available just go to blog post)

Gold Mirror Re-do

After living here almost a year...I am finally getting a sense of what I want to hang where. I really haven't done much decorating, and in a way I think it has been good to 'live' in this space and figure out what I really want, and what will really work for our home. Our entry is small and I just had this little table with flowers on it, but it needed something.
I headed up to my 'junk' room where everything I haven't unpacked is including all our decorations and my thrift store finds. I came across the perfect gold mirror.
The gold is not my style, but with a little primer and paint...it turned out perfect. I love it, the perfect addition to my small entry. (plus it feels good to finally start making our home our own!)
