Trash to Treasure
This is a picture Jeff sent me from his phone.  This poor little table was by a dumpster, in the rain. Forever grateful for picking her up!  
 I was looking at these chairs for 3 days outside a neighbors house. I actually took them (at 10pm so no body saw me) for my sister in law. She declined so I thought, paint and Craigslist. A little TLC made me fall in love and keep these beauty's.

 I actually liked the distressed look but didn't keep it.

 Added it to our 80's bachelor table to hide the seam from the wood that we had to add.

 I don't know if it really adds much but I had to think of something and it was a fun project.

 And that super cute chandelier? Well, thank you Julie and Josh! It was glass and gold and I painted it a perfect orange/red suggested from Little Green Notebook. Thanks Keli for introducing me to that site. It's put all my garage trash to my new treasures.

Jeff insisted we get a square table and I wanted a round. I still can't believe he just found this ready to go in the dumpster. Even funnier, I still can't believe he picked it up for me.

 Sewed for a friend some new pillows and got me thinking... Sew some for us! I have all this fabric dying to be used.The girls were playing store in there room and Jeff was golfing.  I maybe went a little overboard but quick envelope style just take a couple minutes. I can't believe I had some of this fabric in my garage sale pile.
