I love to find old things and give them new life. I'm a sucker for a good before and after, and that's mostly what you'll find on here. I'm not above dumpster diving either :)

Snowy Day Project
Ok almost forgot to take a before picture again...I had already sprayed white and started painting stripes but I did remember! Anyway this was originally supposed to be a Christmas gift for Ashlee. It was just a plain brown rocker in a box that I got for 9.99. I put it all together and sprayed it all white and it sat in the hall closet until today. Since it was all snowy outside and we couldn't go anywhere I decided to get some of the kids' stuff out to consign and instead somehow ended up doing the chair. Anyway I just painted some areas and papered some areas. Glue and paint, and a small boa. All stuff I had in my craft room, aka laundry room... So total cost of the chair was still $9.99 and took about 2 hours. Ashlee loves it and has been sitting in it all afternoon.
