Bring on the Beach!

Lately, there are a lot of things going on around here.  Big party this weekend!

Pressure is ON.

Needless to say, I made more work for myself.

I couldn't pass up these grubby girls I found on the street soaking in the rain.

And my, my......they stank.


.

But,

I was seeing the potential, here.

I brought them home and gave them a spray down of 1/2 bleach &1/2 water.

This took out the mildew odor, dirt, and grime.

Then I applied left over white paint.

Okay, I only got one done so far.

But I'd say she's a little beachy...




...a little garden-y...




...and a whole lotta FREE!




Now I need to get the other done so I have a pair.

These are my new summer chairs for my driveway while the kids ride bikes.

I'm lovin' it.
