A can of Spray Paint Never Hurt Anyone!

So my doctor seriously didn't know what he was doing when he told me last Thursday that I was fine to resume normal activity. Normal activity?! Here's normal activity around the Smith house....

This was my kitchen wall a few days ago. Cute, yes. But I was tired of it. In need of something new.


I found this thingy in the back of a closet and thought, surely I can do something with it...


I decided to spray paint the frame and then convert the mirror into a chalk board! How fun to have a chalkboard in the kitchen!




Next, I finally got tired of looking at this sad little table in our living room. I heard the spray paint calling my name...

TaDa! Perfect!

Now I need to find a lamp and some little goodies for the table - I'll update with a new picture when I have the time to accessorize.



Next, (yes, there's more!) Chris and I ventured to the local Goodwill store the other night and I happened upon this little number for a mere $20!


Again, nothin' a can of spray paint can't fix!

By the way...I am in love with this color! I think it was called Latte and it looks fabulous in our guest room!


Finally...on top of all the home decorating projects I have going on I have also decided to make Carson's baby food. I'm sorry, was that Betty Crocker calling?! Um yes. I believe it is! I was terribly tired of paying $.60 for a jar of organic baby food. The kid is already eating 3-4 jars a day and that's just for breakfast and lunch. I can save an unreal amount of money by just doing it myself so here we go...

Acorn Squash (who knew there was such a thing?!) mixed with cinnamon.

Squash and Pears ready for the freezer!


Whew! I'm tired just writing this post. But have no fear. I am working on another home decor project in the next few days. Think feathers, fabric, and FABULOUS! I promise to post pics!!
