I’m always looking for furniture to re-purpose and when I saw these TV trays at an estate sale, I immediately knew what I wanted to do with them.
So I snatched em up for $4, spray painted them black and added chalkboard paint to the top.
Hey all! Meet chair:
Chair is dangerous. Note the lack of back support across the middle of the back of the chair. Many small children have sat in this chair, leaned back, and fallen through. One day we’ll deal with this safety hazard, but for now, let’s make it pretty.
I’ve always wanted to recover the cushion but I was waiting for something to inspire me and then VOILA! I found this Jack Daniels apron at an estate sale. My husband LOVES Jack Daniels (I’m more of a Canadian Club gal but we make it work) so it seemed perfect for our décor, which will apparently now have a whiskey theme. I’m okay with that.
When my husband and I decided to move our family to Florida, we knew we wanted a fixer upper. We thought it would be fun…so young, so dumb. I’m kidding…mostly. We came across this beast, put in an offer, and got DENIED by the seller.
We moved on and tried to buy a run down little short sale on the other side of town. When the seller’s bank shot that down, we came back to this thing. TBH, we didn’t love it at first. It’s weird and quirky and not mid century enough to be cool, yet not modern enough to have open concept, functional living spaces. But it had the land we were looking for and it had lots of space for our boys to run around so we tried again and picked it up in round 2.
So here we are, in our big ass house that no one wanted. It’s got mint condition 1970’s formica counter tops, complete with a blue sink!
