This Little Cart of Ours, We’re Gonna Make It Shine!

Around here we like to

Recycle & Reuse. 

And of course save money in the process!

I know this is an odd time of year to share our hose cart makeover. 

But it actually works out perfect because now we have a place to store our garden hose for the winter!

This is the second  time we have refurbished this guy.

Here is the before.

Unfortunately we did not take very many during pictures.

But I did find these three :)

Hello Fall

 

Yesterday was one very productive day!

Between giving the dining room table top it’s first coat of paint

I managed to get our dining room decorated for fall!

Well, Hello Fall :)

I made the chalkboard out of this old picture I found at a rummage sale for only $8.

I just picked up a pre-made chalkboard from Home Depot and cut it to fit.

I am itching to get my office painted and another coat on that table top so today I am going to let the pictures do all the talking :)

Enjoy!
