**OLD rOcker**

I went to a few yardsales a few months back and I fell in LOVE with this old rocker! It was just hangin out in the corner and I was so excited to purchase it! It looked good as it was, (minus the major scratches in it).. but of course I couldnt keep it that way! I could see the potential this guy had!

 I did the same turquoise that I did on the old dresser my mom gave me!  Roughed it up a bit, then I glazed it with black glaze. . For some reason the picture makes the seat look overly glazed. In real life it looks soo old and I love it! I was thinking about making a cushion for it, but I havent decided yet!

**LiTTle rEd hUtch**

My sister gave me this red hutch of hers! I was so excited to get it! I usually would have kept it red, since my favorite house color was red for the longest time! I decided to do it a neutral color so I could use it anywhere in my house! (and I was trying to get some different colors in my house) I sanded the red paint off.. (talk about a pain in the butt)! Then hand painted it with a roller and sponge brush. It took about three coats to cover it fully. The red kept seeping through even though I had sanded it. It was a pain but I sure do like how it turned out!

It had chicken wire on the doors, but I didnt want people to be able to see what was inside. I had looked for some baskets for quite a while to go in it, but never found any so this is what I came up with!

 
One day I will have a new house and this will be in my foyer! Until than, this is where it will have to stay!

Now I can hide all my goodies inside without anybody being able to see all my junk!

Sneak peak of my next project!!

This is my dresser and I am planning on painting it to match my room!

Here are the rest of my projects that I finished this weekend, all from D.I. and yardsales! Love them! Keep checking our blog for the latest projects!! I have a busy week ahead of me! And alot more projects to finish!

part 3

 Here are some more frames that were from part 1 of my projects for AUg. Sorry if its complicated to keep up with me! I went on a 3 day bing of painting while my hubby is away fighting fires! I get bored and start projects and cant stop for days at a time! these frames were so fun to redo, I am selling these in the craft show this fall, they are all shapes and sizes, I removed the glass because I hate glass, it looks so much better without the glare of the glass.

This is a yardsale frame, I love the detail, it was an ugly brown I redid it in the little bottles of acrylic paint. Close to the pistacio spray paint I used but I didnt want to chance ruining this with spraypaint. Then I glazed it with 2 coats so it would bring out the detail in the frame. Now I just need to find a cute picture to put in it!

 here is a full view of the frame.

This is a chair I talked a guy into selling it for $5. He was asking $25 for it! It was a brown color, once again I forgot to take a before pic, but it is a very old chair! The padding was all torn and dusty, I bought this cute material at a store I found here in cedar, it matches my kitchen with all the red and black! I love the mismatched chairs for the table!

This is my table I posted the before in the first blog for august. It was brown, and I painted it black then glazed it with a dark brown glaze. I love this table dont think Im gonna be able to let this one go either!

more projects before and after ~tasha~

Ok here are some more before and afters of the blog I posted earlier, I guess I tried to download too much my computer shut down!! So this is like part 2 of the last blog!

 This is a shelf, one of the first projects I actually MADE WITHOUT MY HUSBAND!!! I was so proud, I painted it the same color as my accent wall in my room. I was so proud of myself for accomplishing something  by myself! If you want further details on how I made this shelf reply to this blog and I will email you details on how I made it! Once again I forgot to take pics in the process so this is all I got!

I got this frame at a yardsale for 50 cents! It was an ugly brown color I spray painted it blue and glazed it with a dark glaze! It turned out so cute!

 This pic wouldnt turn upright but this was another treasure from D.I. I loved this basket, it was yellow and an ugly brown. I painted it the pistacio spray paint like my other green projects.

These are some of the frames redone from my last blog, ill get another pic of them posted I did alot of different colors! I love frames that add color to your decorating!

more treaseures I have redone ~tasha~

I have had a busy week redoing some frames and chairs for my home and to sale at the craft show this fall! Here is a little sneak peek at whats to come!

 These frames and shelf I have collected from deseret industries, yardsales, and family who are getting rid of their junk!!

This is a finished hutch that was gold and only $5 at a yardsale in delta, I painted it with Krylon spray paint in Pistacio, I forgot to take a before pic but it turned out way cute and is holding towels in my kids bathroom!

 This is a bedframe I found at deseret industries for $10, all it needed was a fresh coat of paint and it was good as new!

 I redid this table as well, this one went in my living room as an end table! I just fall in love with all my projects I dont want to get rid of them!!

 This is my end table for my downstairs living room, i got it at a yardsale I think, it was like $10, I sanded and repainted it, it is my favorite table in the house, I bought a new knob for it at home depot for $3.00 I used acrylic paint in the little bottle from walmart for this one, spray paint just didnt stick very well to it, I like using the little bottles for these kind of projects, it dries fast and it looks so much better after glazing it.

 This is the after of my table project! I loved doing this one, I love the color, just a hint thru my house brightens it up alot!

These are a few frames I redid that I found at yardsales and D.I. turned out so cute!

~more projects~

This is a before and after of a little chest my mother in law found me and let me have! It turned out so cute, I painted it with white wood paint and glazed it with a dark almost black glaze.

 I got this chair at a yardsale for $3.00 my son austin helped me paint and glaze it, its for his room!!
