summer finds
Driving home yesterday I had a crazy urge to stop at the landfill! I know right? Not the most glorious place on the face earth. However, the potential that exists there can be amazing. Trash really can become treasures. Yesterday was one of those days. Found several things but this is the only one you get to see right now.
Unfortunately, I showed up in the wrong attire. Flip flops and a mound of discard metal really don't go well together! Much to my luck I found a strapping gentleman in work boots and gloves who was willing to save Little Miss Trolley from the heap.
Take a good look at her, cause she ain't going to look like this long! If truth be told, the paint is still tacky on my fingertips! More to come soon.

Before and After
My daughter had this tired old IKEA bookcase in her room.
It had seen better days and since I was painting her room,
I gave it a little once over with some Benjamin Moore Advance paint.
It actually took three coats of paint to fully cover the orange tone of the wood
However, it finished great and seems like it will be a durable paint.
Looking pretty don't you think?
