Painting !!

It's been a while since I have had some inspiration to do a project here at home but there is one thing lingering and taunting me.. My old upstairs bathroom.

Living in an older home.. Bathrooms are always a challenge. Without gutting the entire thing, you want to have a beautiful bathroom without the cost.. And that is what I am trying to figure out !

Have you ever painted a tile floor? Yep.. That's what I am thinking ... An old blue tile floor in great condition.. Can't it be painted!? We will soon find out.

I am convinced that if you have terrible walls from previous damage (like from wall paper) just go-ahead and bite the bullet and re- wallpaper. It's back in style!! I am also fascinated by the thoughts of wallpapering the ceiling !! I saw a beautiful picture of a wallpapered ceiling in a classic traditional style print.. To withstand time ! Genius except I don't have flat ceilings.. Another project :)

With Christmas approaching I am getting inspired to do some decorating ... Anyone game?

Sparked,

A Pet Lover's best friend!!

This is another favorite of mine that I thought I would share...

This little handy tool is a MUST if you have a dog, cat or any pet that sheds and mainly lives inside like our lil pups do ! You know that moment when the doorbell rings and you suddenly notice the dog hair on the chair that your guest is going to sit in.. No time for the vacuum right!? Whip out this oversized sticky roller.. It is PERFECT to roll over fabric in seconds.. Picks up the pet hair and saves your guests pants !!



This is SO perfect for my comforter on my bed and for this loveseat in my dining room.. Our dogs favorite spot (even though they aren't allowed on it ... I thought I ran the show here) ...NOTE: dog is white .. Couch is brown. Not a good combo .. This oversized sticky roller picks up all the hair when I can't get the vacuum out! Find it in the pet section at Walmart !!

Chalkboards.. Anywhere !!

This chalkboard was created around our garage entry door. It is a large, blank space with DIRT issues so I decided to use leftover chalkboard paint and cover up the dirt ! With a little wood trim around the edges of the paint and possibly another color for the door it shows great potential to be a very fun way to leave creative messages :)

Super Glue: Super Stuck..how to get out of a super glue MESS

I discovered today that super glue is wonderful in repairing costume jewerly so you don't have to toss it out BUT I also found out that it bonds to skin in less than 3 secs !!! ALL OVER my finger !! Opening the tube I had most of the glue go over all my fingers, panic set in and immediately ran to the sink. Water FYI does NOTHING to remove or prevent Super glue from bonding to skin. I did not know ( you may know this already !!) but FINGER NAIL POLISH WITH Acetone works AMAZING !! Removed ALL the glue (and it was ALOT) With a little soaking and a little scrubbing...all gone !! WHEW !!

A Great Seating option

Here is a little find.. At Marshall's!
This great rush seat bench painted black fits just right under my kitchen table. Perfect to plop down the fabulous bags you find (at the outlet for 80% off no less)

I have a galley style kitchen so things have to serve many purposes.. Not just to look good! It is a great match to the table which was a coffee table (from Goodwill) I loved the distressed worn look of the coffee table top so we popped that off and put it on an old table base a friend had in the trash !! Voila' a cool perfect sized kitchen table for my skinny kitchen (table cost.. 8.00!)

Loves this bench seating find at Marshall's. Go check them out! Great accessories there now.. Cool lanterns!!
(oh and hush up on the Star magazine on table.. Yeah.. I read it.. You know you do too so don't hate :)
