Side Tracked

In my last post
I told you about some
projects I'd be working on
over the weekend........
 
Well, I got a little
side tracked Saturday morning
 
A neighbor told us about some stone
that had been dumped on an empty lot next to their house
 
They said it was free for the taking.........
The word FREE always perks up my ears!!
 
 
Next thing I know me & hubby are hauling
stone over to our place, I started working
on a flowerbed around some of my trees out front
 
I cleared the spot, placed the stone, layed newspaper
and covered it with a little dirt
 
 
Of course it's not finished
but that will have to do for now.
 
I must get on to my other projects
 
 
My table got a coat of primer and one coat of paint
I'll put the finishing coat of paint on it this week
 
 

 
 
I also painted this flea market frame
and attached chicken wire to the
back of the frame, then added some small
white close pins
 
 
 
Now it's a place to puts your notes,
pictures, or recipes
 
I'll be making more of these for my
booth at the Victoria Market Days
 
I also spent some time Sunday researching
Paint Sprayers.  I may invest in one
for my Annie Sloan projects.
 
Do any of you use one that you would recommend??
 
Every Little Birdie says-
 
That's it for now, I'll post again when
I've finished a few more projects

    1. Thanks Rachel, one suggestion if you work with chicken wire - wear gloves!! That wire is sharp and will cut, I know from experience!
