Curb appeal

This mothers day I hosted my family at my house in Greenville! What was suppose to be shower mom with love and gifts turned into shower Ashley with love and gifts for my yard!! Lots and lots of flowers, a wicker yard sale find that now is spray painted white with green cushions and fun lighting this was a perfect place to have our cookout. I'm pretty sue this is my new favorite room in the house! More pictures soon!

DIY furniture paint

A gift from a family friend was this cedar dresser! With some white paint inside, two coats blue on outside and new handles = I'm in love!

Yard sale find!

What started out as $40 hidden in the corner was quickly talked down to $20 and stuffed in the honda crv!

Yard sale tips: church yard sales are the BEST to go to.
1) they are huge
2) they are wanting to make as most as possible for missions trips so any price you ask for they are more than likely going to take.
3) because they are trying to raise money people are willing to give all kinds i stuff to help out, so things are in good shape and lots to choose from.
4) most church sales are very organized and have several people willing to help you carry to your car!

My sweet find was quickly turned into a coffee station which sits in the kitchen. I love it and no store bought furniture would have been the same!

Changes!!

Changes to the living room!
