All you need is...

just a little paint.

 This little dresser we found on the side of the road...yep, this young couple was emptying out the cabin they bought and didn't want any of the furniture that was left there. Well, I did...so Tim and I hauled this and a few other pieces home  and this is how it looks now.

 Tim took the front of the top drawer and put it on the bottom of the dresser to cover up the gap that was left when a piece broke off. I think that it looks like two pieces of furniture stacked up now. I really like the way this turned out.

 This hall tree was made by Tim and painted by me...I went with the "French Country" look this time.

 Can't tell you what the color is because I mixed two paints I had together to get this pale Robin egg blue...

 This looks more like my sisters home, if she had room for it I would have offered it to her...

But, instead, it ended up in my booth at Morning Glory Mercantile, hope it sells quickly.

Finally, this primitive black tray, made from a drawer, would be great dressed up for Fall and placed on the table or side board.

This whole blog is about doing and re-doing...all of these items were destined for the land fill but we transformed them and now they are destined to be in someones home. I love that.


Well, that's all for now...

So from my porch to yours...

Have a blessed week

WOW! What A Summer...

 I spent most of the Summer fighting off some sort of bacterial infection which cased me to become very anemic, I'm not going to spend a lot of time talking about that, I just wanted to explain my absence from Hattie's Front Porch.

 My poor garden suffered too, I never got out there to weed or plant any new perennials...                         


I barely got my corner re-do started when the "Bug" got me. Maybe next year.

 So, jump ahead to Fall and I right there, inside and out. I've put a little bit of  Fall around the house. More on that in the next blog.

A few items waiting to be taken to the little booth.



Well that's all for now...
