so recently i realized that i have not been expressing myself via my crafts. I am a very crafty person and i love knitting and painting things and just generally personalizing my own stuff. I just havent' felt like doing any of it but recently i decided that i was over winter and needed to create projects for myself to get through the next month or so. So here is project 1!
I purchased a phone bench last summer when nick was working in the middle of nowhere in michigan. I was driving down this farm road and came across this old barn where they held this weekly flea market. yes, it was awesome! This phone bench was sitting in my living room since like July and unfortunately before i redid it i forgot to take a before picture. I KNOW! stupid! anyways i found a picture of one that looked pretty similar.
so here is the after picture

the fabric is from ikea, which, plug for ikea, they have awesome fabrics. The paint is a color called "mermaid" from the behr collection at home depot.
here is my next project. Thsi time i'm actually taking a before picture. I'm not sure that i want to even paint the chair cuz it's a pretty cool gold color with a red accent in it. Anyways will let you all knwo how it works out when i've got it completed.
