Spray painted my old brass chandelier! Self- explanatory and what a difference in under $6!!!

Spring wreath to break the jinxed weather!

Bought some fun fur lion brand - inspired by a fellow blogger and awesome crafter - Patty (http://pattyschaffer.typepad.com/capture_the_details/2010/03/monday-make-it-spring-baby-grass-wreath.html) and got on with my version of the Spring wreath! Usually I would spend $10 odd to buy my wreath base at michael's but in this case, I stopped at Lowe's for a bathroom insulation pipe for 94 cents and taped it together to do the job! You will need -  Lion Brand Yarn Fun Fur in Lime Green, article #320-194), a daisy trim (I used Wright's trim, but you could use any you like), and long pearlized yellow pins (1 1/2").

Then I added the daisies from the lace and a lounge chair plus a homemade bunting! Voila....done in no time.

Here's the final product!

Dresser re-do with Panyl!

Ok so its time to redo that old dresser! I decided at first to paint it then thought, that might take a while why not Panyl it instead.

Took out the drawers and gave them a coat of shino, then a thorough cleanse, followed by applying some inner lining (bought at Target in shelf liners) just to refresh them!

Then I took the panyl as ordered (for malm dressers, 4 packa nd 2 pack) - worth visiting www.panyl.com for some awesome ideas, its very easy to work with :) I chose White cedar finish and ordered swatches for free before making my decision and used a coupon to get 10% off which they send with the swatches). I sanded the edges for a smoother finish!

 and Voila! Am thinking of adding knobs or nickel plates for corners to give a 'campaign' look but not too sure? comments welcome. Surely, you have something to paint or panyl?! Have fun and share those pics.
