DIY Blu-Teal-Ful Birdhouse

I purchased this birdhouse at Michael's for $5.00, I primed, painted and distressed it, in the end it wound up to be a gorgeous little birdhouse, I almost hate to put it outside!

Something More ~ DIY Personalized Chair

This maple wood chair was given to me from my Mom, she purchased 3 of these chairs at a garage sale several weeks ago. My Mom redone 2 of the chairs and they look beautiful now!! The first one she redone was a Sweet Hand Painted Yellow Chair and the other one was a Shabby Chic Chair, after seeing how well her chairs turned out I was extremely anxious to start redoing my own. :)

I wasn't quite sure what I was going to do with this chair, I knew for starters I had to sand it down pretty well. By the time I finished sanding it I knew what I was going to do with this awesome maple wood chair.

Something More

 

Whew!! Sanding down this chair took like 3-4 hours, I had plenty of time to think about what I was going to do with this chair. I kinda had this list in my head:

White

Distressed

Black Detail

Something More... 

Didn't quite know what the "Something More" was, but I knew it'd be blah if I had just made it white with black details. Anywho, Moving on.
