The color is okay, but I was looking for black accents in the guest house kitchen, so I got out my trusty can of black spray paint and went to town. When my husband heard me…

Well, I want to thank everyone for stopping by and sharing your opinion on what would look best on my burlap covered stool. The overwhelming winner was……..(drumroll)…….. The “H”! The monogrammed “H” won hands down! I was leaning toward the “H” as well, so I was excited to see all of your comments! I hope I don’t insult…

I have completed my stool makeover, but I would love your opinion on the “finishing touches”. I posted earlier this week about a stool I found at Goodwill. I had been looking for a little stool that I could paint white and add a burlap seat cover. This one was perfect! And it was only $3.50! It was in great…

If you clicked on this post to read about the t.v. show “The View”, you will be disappointed. (Personally, I think that show is trashy and too liberal. Nothing more disgusting that a bunch of foul-mouthed women sitting around a table discussing inappropriate topics. What ever happened to ladies acting like “ladies”?) Ooops, I just gave “my view” about The…
