Trash to Treasure

My wall really isn't this tomato red, it's darker and . . . prettier in my opionion.
I decided to share my latest garage sale find because I was pretty excited about it. I brought them home, gave them a good coat of black spray paint, sanded the edges and viola! Once I had them hung beneath my oven hood, I started looking around my house and realized that many accessories and furnishings in our home have been discovered in unlikely places. (see previous post about old door from a junk heap ) Nothing a little scrub brush, elbow grease, paint, or odor ban couldn't fix.

That reminds me of a random episode of Everybody Loves Raymond where his parents (Frank & Marie) have a big sppon and fork that they have had hanging on their wall forever. Have you seen that one?

I haven't seen that one. Wish I could. I heart Everybody Loves Raymond.

I remember the episode! Love Everybody Loves Raymond...Troy and I have all the seasons on dvd, only problem is they are labeled in Japanese so we don't know the first from the last! :) Cute find!!
