My New Project


June 14th...
I have been in such a "better homes and gardens" type mood lately. I want to paint, I want to build something, I want to plant a garden....well ok not really, I am more stuck on inside stuff right now. I just want my house to look nice and decorated, and I would like to try and do some of it myself. After a few days of watching HGTV all day long I was starting to go stir crazy because I didn't know what to do. I can't paint, so that's out, but I can paint on a canvas and hang it up! So that's one idea I have when it comes to decorating my living room and kids rooms.
Well yesterday on craigslist I saw this old entertainment center for $10. I called the guy (who said it was in WAY worse condition than it really is) and asked him if a little paint would fix it up, or if it was falling apart. He said it was still sturdy and just looked bad, so I told him I wanted it! What better way to get my painting fix? It's a little bigger than I anticipated, but I will make it work. Tomorrow (would be today, but its been raining) we will head to Hobby Lobby and get some sand paper, a little paint and make this thing look awesome! (I hope)
I will post more pictures when it's done!
