Chair makeovers and more finds

Thank you all so much for the blog love I received from my first Pink Saturday post, I am so thrilled there are so many of you who love pink just like me!!!!

I was browsing through my pictures and found this project I worked on a year ago.... I had bought a director's chair at a garage sale, so I gave it a makeover! First, I dyed the white canvas a bright pink, then I used those new Clorox bleach pens to write some french sayings. It only takes a few minutes to fade the color... I loved how it turned out!!









































I decided to give the same treatment to a couple of beach chairs I had in the garage. This time, I used a sharpie pen in a metallic gold color to write french words, then used coffee and brushed it onto the canvas, going back a second time in random spots to give it a more uneven look!! I really like the results!! You can see the before and after....


































This last weekend we had some beautiful weather, so in addition to some well needed yard work, I did manage to go to a local flea market and estate sales. Here are some of my finds!

At the estate sale I spotted this old springboard, and the price was unrefusable!!!! It rode home with me on top of my car!

Finally, I was thrilled to find this gorgeous vintage rose painting with frame on Ebay for only $26!! These paintings are harder and harder to find and they usually go for a ton of money, so I think I lucked out! I am working on some other projects that I hope to share with you soon!
