Red Chest Before and After

I bought this chest at a garage sale for $15.00. It is very bland against the walls and also has a faux crackled finish that is kind of hideous, but I knew it could be saved. It sits by the garage door and everyone is supposed to put their shoes in it. Usually it sits here and shoes are scattered all around it.

The after: I painted a red and then glazed it with a black glaze. I am in love....

Check out my daughter in the bathroom. Funny how much of life you don't notice until you look at your photos. You find dust and clutter that in life you begin to ignore and don't even see it anymore. Not that I ignore my daughter, I knew she was in there, I just had no clue whatsoever that the camera was capturing her.

I want new accessories. These are all garage sale finds that are here until something better comes along. Some reason I want to shout Ole' with all those colors.
