Sunday Thrift Store goodies

My thrift store finds of the day; a metal wall art $4.99 (still had the price tag from homegoods of $19.99)



Now after a little bronze spray paint:

and a plain white lamp, $2.99


Getting ready to paint, I wanted the hardware to remain white.



Also after a little bronze spray paint, and a lamp shade ($13.97 from wal-mart)



Here is without the light on, no glare.


Now all together:


Pretty happy with my sunday thrift store finds. A nice way to help vamp up the Living room for less than $20. Later this week I will show you a nice before and after.

Another ABC frame

After making the first one, I had a request to make another for a friend. I love the way it turned out and after using Michael's coupons the total cost was $5.22 (minus the spray paint- I had it from a previous project) Not bad for a custom coordinating frame. I am super excited to give this to her.
And here is a close up.
What do you think?!
