Dollar Tree Drab to Fantastic

These frames caught my eye at the dollar tree.  I liked the accents on the corner and immediately knew I could find some way to use them.

 Before: (excuse the hideous tile in our basement.  It's where I do most of my spray painting.)

 I spray painted them very lightly with some white spray paint.  I filled them with some clock rub ons that I purchased out of the $1 bin at Michaels.

After:

 I then used them to spiffy up the area by our back door.

Before:  drab and plain~this is after our kitchen remodel.

 After:  I purchased a vinyl "pretty chalkboard" (that is what it was actually called on the package) at Homegoods  (I love this store).  I then added the small dollar tree frames.  It looks wonderful here now.

The next project begins with an old tray I had at home.

Before:

After: I spray painted it and added some goodies that I picked up at our local Anthropologie (more on this wonderful store in an upcoming post).

 

 These milk glasses are perfect.  I love the mug, nice and big for my morning cup of coffee.

 When I spray painted the tray it began to crackle.  I'm not sure why but I liked it anyway.  A happy accident.
