Look What I Did!

Chloe recently developed a habit of chewing on her hair. It's gross. It makes her hair stink and it's much harder to comb. I told her that if she didn't stop, I would cut off her hair. I guess she thought I was a liar.




I am not a liar.
I've become obsessed with spraypaint. It's the most fun. I needed to add a little color to my house, so I scored some cheap furniture at thrift stores and on Craigslist. Here are my latest projects.


The chair is the new Naughty Chair (Jeff says it's appropriately painted Carolina Blue) and the cabinet came with a nursery set I got from Craigslist. I'm so sad I didn't take "before" pictures of it! It used to be a vanilla color with silver knobs and a couple of crazy "Keep Out, Baby!" contraptions on the front. I spray painted it, added wooden knobs, and distressed it. It's my new favorite piece of furniture.

Chloe's hair is fabulous. And so is your cabinet. I can't believe it's spray paint. Kudos on the hair and the furniture. :D

Chloe looks like a doll, LOVE your spray painted beauties, wish i could squeeze and kiss Miles all over.

Ashley, I would make you one if I could. Maybe you could send me your sweet garage sale kid chairs. I'm guessing the shipping would break us both.

Unknown said...
