Yard sale redo!!!!!

On my way home from running errands Sat. morning ,I stopped by a yard sale that was down the street from me. Of course I stopped by and bought the first thing I saw. A cute little table that someone had stripped the paint off already. I loved how it looked already but there was a circle mark on the top. I knew right away what I would do!!!!!! I bought watermelon pink spray paint from Hobby Lobby and sprayed the top. I couldn't remember what the drawer pulls looked like but I spotted the perfect pink ones at Hobby Lobby while I was there. I didn't buy them but when I got home and saw the knobs unscrewed I had to go back later and buy them!!!!!!

I put the cute little table in my kitchen and I LOVE IT!!!!! Here are photos.... I am linked at

Thanksgiving Day!!!!

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving Day!!!! It was just our family this year. I was so thankful to have  all my children around the table celebrating together. My hubby Trent did most of the cooking.He is our chef and I am his assistant, lol !!!!! I made the cornbread casserole and the desserts. I am also in charge of putting the table together. I have been slowly collecting robins blue dishes and serving platters from Marshalls and TJMAX. I mostly buy them when they are on sale. These are photos of my table . I am still trying to find the perfect chairs for my dining room table that hubby and I both like!!!!!!  I am happy that we had a great dinner and we didn't have to travel!!!! I almost forgot to add that this year we had Thanksgiving in our new dining room!!!!!  It was an added bonus because last year our dining room table was set up in the living room while this room was under construction!!! Hope everyone had a great day with their friends and family!!!!

New again!!!

I wrote a post in Jan. about getting a new table for xmas.I absolutely love my table.Well,in our house it is hard keeping things looking new for long!!!! The table got some scratches ,which is ok but then disaster happened.My husband took off a plug in from the outlet and left it on the table. The scented oil leaked and ate away part of the finish.I was so upset because it was a present and I was having a bad day.I basically whined about it for a while and then the kids gave different ideas to fix it.My boys said I should paint it.I was thinking I would refinish it, but I ended up painting it black and adding 4 layers of shellac to protect it.Here are some pictures of the ordeal and the finished table.
