Here's my new shabby chic coffee table.
Painted by hubby, distressed by me.
I brought this home from an Op shop a few weeks ago. It was beautiful mahogany (I forgot to take a pic before hubby sanded it). But it had a big crack right down the middle of it so it was only $20!
It was pouring with rain and took me three goes to finally fit it in the car.
I wasn't too sure about how happy hubby would be to see it but much to my surprise he is embracing the shabby lifestyle! (probably because it's cheaper than anything 'new')
I LOVE my 'new' table!
And I also LOVE the new pitcher sent to me by Sylvia.
Two more furniture transformations are awaiting hubby in the garage now...lol!
And here's a craft project that Sylvia sent to Liberty.
'Paint your own gumboots'!!!!!!
These are the coolest things, if you don't like what you've painted you can wipe the paint off with the special wipes.
And once you've painted them they're waterproof!
Liberty painted them three times before she was happy with the result.
So much fun!
Thank you Sylvia!!

More on the barn coming soon, lol!
