it’s the last day to enter the giveaway! it’s open until 11:59 pm, CST! sally forth, dear readers, and sign up if you haven’t already!
so, the other weekend, when i was quite productive, this is one of the projects i accomplished…
i started with this thrifted spice rack:
which i spent maybe $1.50 on. i quickly wiped it down with a moist cloth to clean it off, and when it was dry, i sanded it down with a fine grit sandpaper.
then i took my 2″ angled brush and a tiny pot of sample paint that i got way way back in the day, when we bought paint for the living room. i thought it was more of a teal blue, but it dried more of a mediterranean blue. i painted three coats, trying to keep them thin and even.
i got the idea from this pin (originally from this source). this is for caitlin, who has way more nail polish than me. this is *literally* all of the nail polish i own. hahaha! largest parts dark colors and sparklies, with one obligatory red and pink… that’s me! if i want something different, i go peruse caitlin’s collection anyways!
Cute idea! I may have to try this one.
Tha is really neat. I have an unused spice rack. just like yours except for two small drawers at the bottom. And of course all the grease and dust and the remains of an old flower decal. It’s been sitting around for years, as I’m a notorious packrat. I mean collector. I’ll have to think about sprucing it up some, and finding a new use for it. Even if it’t just donating it to a thrift shop, I haven’t done that because of the condition. Off ot leave a comment at the original source.
it looks lovely!
and did you see the hunger games inspired nail polish line? birthday present? or do you have a sufficiency of neat nails?
ohhhhh. that’s a good color!
