Blue, Blue and More Blue

I found the prettiest shade of blue oops paint the other day. I also found these items at the flea market. What's a girl to do but paint 'em blue.
Seen better days 5.00 bench
Burlap like fabric gets stenciling.
Glazed and heavily distressed. I really like this and think I just might keep it for me.

Not the same table because I forgot to take a before but you get the idea...$5.00.

 Cute and beachy w/ a little pencil starfish.







Vintage sewing drawer...$1.00



These are great for storing all kinds of things. Check out what Carol from The Polka Dot Closet did w/ her sewing drawer finds. Carol was my very first commenter and I'm pretty sure first follower too. She is extremely creative and super sweet!

Back to the garage to finish one more piece I'm painting in this pretty blue. Have a happy weekend!

    Love your bench! I've been thinking I need to add some more cushion but I don't sew so didn't think it would work. However, your's looks great so I think I will!

    Nice finds and great makeovers. I was thrifting this weekend and saw an almost identical drawer priced at $20! Love the oops paint color.
