Please welcome Deb from Lake Girl Paints!

I am a huge fan and I think you will be too, take it away Deb…

All smiles here!

I’m glad to be visiting at Debbie’s online home.

We have a lot in common

in our quest to refresh thrifty finds.

I have so many treasures in line to restore.

I’m going to share a couple of them today.

It was “love at first sight”

when I found this rope in the thrift barn for $5.

I knew I could find some fun use for it.

All of that textural loveliness will give my plant a needed “pick me up”.

So after soaking the rope in a bucket of bleach water

and laying out to dry,

 I wrapped and glued the rope

around my plastic pot.

That led to another idea.

What about giving this old plant stand

a new look.

This was a freebie.

But it just doesn’t have that fresh beach house vibe

that I’m going for.

So I cut some beadboard panels to fit around the sides

and hammered off the metal flourish

at the bottom of the stand.

Now it’s shaping up.

After base painting in a gray,

I brushed over in semi-gloss white

leaving random streaks of gray to show through.

Then a little bit of sanding

and a smidge of black glaze in a few places

and there you have it…

a cottagey beachy feel.

That will be such a nice complement to the sisal wrap.

thrifty schemes to create fresh personality pieces!

    1. I am definitely a fan of LakeGirlPaints. When Deb puts her brush to something the results are always wonderful. I’m making a mental note on covering the metal part of that stand…. I see those all the time at sales, how clever to cover it.
