This is my newest addition
a wooden box (I think it said Schneiders on it..lol)
that I found around the house
and decided it would look more attractive in turquoise..
with a kind of white-washed look
because I had first painted it white.

The netted starfish I've had around for a long time
and the white adirondack chair was sitting on my bedside table
but I found a new home for it with a sea-side shell to keep it company :)
I'm going to attempt to paint my living room "garage-sale find" shelves (my hunny found them 2 years ago and had them in the shed..I didnt even know!)
~
He put a bead-board backing on them because they're thick and so they'd hang onto the wall more securely..
Cant tell you how excited I am to have those ready and up!
Also, a dear friend of mine is giving me his pine corner unit (that belonged to his mother)
because he knows I loved it
and so I'm painting that white and am going to treasure it always
and the kind heart that is sending it my way :)
Thank you Bill!

And I have to show off my new cup I bought at Chapters this summer
while we were vacationing!
It's called "I'm not a paper cup"
Its porcelain and it has a silicone lid on it.
This morning I have half coffee and half hot chocolate in it (a very favourite hot drink of mine)
I really love my cup..
and love that theres no handle on it
so it fits in my car cup-holder proudly..lol
But I use it around the house too..because it has a lid, its great to keep my drink hot while I carry it around with me while doing my chores.. :)
I've never really been a "refill" cup-lover until this.
They are available at Chapters book store (and gifts)
for about $22.00
It really looks like a paper cup though doesnt it?
My momma thought it was..the other day she asked me if I had just bought a coffee at "Twiggs"
which is a coffee shop that has paper coffee cups similar to this..
I had to giggle and tell her all about it!

Well hope everyone has a happy day!
Im off to get my paintbrush and finish those shelves!
I've got to make room for the other projects I have waiting to be attacked..
This one is almost done..
Can you guess what its becoming?
Lovingly,
Deborah xoxo
