I haven't been on here in a good minute with work and school. I finished school in May and started working full time and have been neglecting most everything else. Since, I have been so busy I never really got around to spring cleaning. I was going through our garage and the old owners left this super ugly bookcase. It was pretty heavy and I didn't want to haul it to the dump, so I decided to do something else with it. My backyard has been pretty lackluster and it needed some color. I had a bunch of leftover paint and wanted to give a little inspo to anyone looking for something to do with junk furniture.

Ignore my dying plant... I replanted it and well, as you can see it just didn't go so well.

Painted Chair

This was one of my old kitchen chairs that my dogs decided to chew. I was going to just throw it away, but I got the idea of using it as a little décor in the backyard. Since it was going to be outside I wanted to really distress it.

Chunky Scarf Pattern

 This is very quick pattern and it is great for beginners. I wanted to make a scarf that was a little bit different. Kinda reminds me of the Katniss vest. I used about 2.5 balls of yarn. Luckily Michaels has a 2 for $5 deal and I had some left over from my Chunky Bib Scarf.

Doily Wall Hanging

This was a quick little project. The longest part was waiting for the paint to dry on my tree branch.

Comic Book Dresser

I wanted to show you guys

the dresser I did for my boys' room. It was a fairly simple project that stands out. It took me a little while I get the hang of using Mod Podge. I said I was going to do a smaller project at first and ended up just going for it.

Lacy Scarf

Sorry it's taken me so long to post this pattern. I was so busy at work with everyone getting their hair done before Superbowl.
