One thing I'm doing this week while the kids are visiting the Gparents is knocking out some D.I.Y projects on my to-do list! The first is a storage cabinet for Gman's room. I found this awesome solid wood locker style cabinet at our local antique mall for a steal.

Can't you just imagine covered shelves and matching baskets for toy storage?!

It was in great condition, but it needed a little somethin' somethin' before it would be perfect. Today I got out navy blue paint and went to work! It's drying right now, but I think I'm in love!!!! Looks soooo much better. I still have a few finishing touches to add, so stay tuned for the big reveal!
Since I was already making a big mess, I decided to tackle this small project that has been on my to-do list for the past 2 years now. I found this cute piece at the thrift store for only 59 cents, woo, hoo!
I love cute, yet functional pieces so this fit the bill. The center was handpainted by a woman named Lila in 1991....stylish for the nineties, but not quite my style now. So I attacked it with some black spray paint and it already looks 90% better!

Terrible photo I know :(

I plan to do some lettering in the middle to jazz it up. I can't decide if it will go in the Laundry room or by the front door yet???? Maybe inspiration will hit me soon and I will show you the finished product next week!
