Two days late... What am I working on Wednesday... oops I mean Friday :)

I will post a Fat Friday later today!!!
I have been a really busy beaver... lol.
I have found a top to an armour along the streets of Burlington. I plan on using it in my den... to hide the computer and printer!!! And other stuff that everyone doesn't need to see upon entry into the den!! I will show you both the before and after pics when done... along with what the top part looks like!

Second... I finished the signs for my autumn... holloween decor. And I would like to say a kind thank you to mysteryhistorymom for her idea on what to do with the other frame... I love it!!
I also included a spider on top of it to bring home the point... ;-)

So cute... grands just love the spiders!!!

And third... I decided to follow some of the prim blogs that I have been reading... and LOVING by the way!!! So in order to copy... well to imitate... them I have spent some time painting on the last few rainy days we have had here... I went to Wal-Mart got some paint... Umbrella Black... to be exact. But... it isn't quite as black as I thought it would be... kinda has a real blue tint to it. It is sorta growing on me thou. Scoti and my mother both like it alot... so I taking their lead... and going to live with it for a few!! Time will tell. I painted my pie safe... and another cabinet that once was a bookshelf. ( Did this a long time ago... needed extra storage in my kitchen... but it needed to be skinny... I enclosed a bookshelf in 1x10's and put on doors... and some trim to cover it all up!!! and whalla!!!) And since then... I put it up on top of another book shelf... for ALL of by cookbooks and now I have the best of both worlds... storage... and extra room in a small kitchen!!

my pie safe... and the two bookshelves

I have been debating on whether or not to paint a pie on my pie safe... or to just leave it as is...

Daughter thinks it looks better as is... I would like to paint the pie... because it will tell all where to find all of my baking supplies!!! Is that silly????

Now I am trying to decide on whether or not to paint the kitchen... cabinets... or what all!! The yellow and black... just don't look right... but I am sad to cover up all of my vines and flowers...

So I will show you some pics of the kitchen later... for a vote on WHAT TO DO????

And then another of my projects were to recover my rocking chair... it was orginally covered in an orange material... that I covered about two years ago in a toile pattern in blue... well I am over the blue color in the livingroom... so I had found some red denim at the "God's Store" in Burlington... and gave them a donation for it ($5.00) and brought it home... and recovered my chair. I love it!!!

to get it to look red... I had to turn the flash off...

otherwise it came out a real fushia color!!!

So please forgive the yellow hue!!

I am almost ready to show you some pics of my Christmas Stocking Swap finished!!! I have to wait until Monday I think to send it!!! Sue... I am soooooooo excited!!! I can't wait for you to get it!!! There is something in there too for Amy!!! It will be on top!! I have had soooooo much fun doing all of this!! And thank you too for some ideas for Christmas presents around here too! ;-)

(I promise they will be different from yours... so yours will be one of a kind ones!!) I will post the pics before I send it, so you will know about when to expect it!!! Hope all is well with you and yours dear!!

I suppose I should close for now... and post more later!!!

Also don't forget to SMILE...
You will get on in return!!!
Remember to Live well, Laugh often,
and to LOVE much!!
