Funky Finds

So I mentioned in my last blog how I was able to score some really great finds last weekend. You saw my transformation of the dry sink the other day.   Here are some of the other items I picked up:

Dry Sink Makeover!

This weekend I scored major furniture finds!  I got a bunch of pieces for free.  I picked up a dry sink, a pair of captain's chairs and a dresser.  The guy was nice enough to throw in a cute little lamp and an old wash basin.  


First piece to tackle was the dry sink. Nice piece but too dark for my style and I hate gold knobs.  

Some leftover 'oops' paint and very, very light distressing around the edges gave this dry sink a brand new look.  Goodbye gold knobs...hello fresh white.  

 The wash basin is cream with pastel color flowers.  It accents the dry sink nicely.  This piece would like nice in a bathroom, kitchen, or large foyer or entryway. 

Awesome Candle Holder

Earlier this week I was at the Goodwill store and I came across a pair of  'Illuminations' wooden candle holders.  My camera makes them look brassy - but each of them are a dark brown wood. The smaller one had the original price sticker of $14.95 and the larger at $17.95.  GW had them listed at $3 for the PAIR! 

Since I really don't care for dark wood  gave them a little paint and some really cute candles...
 

   

 I found these great soy candles at Marshall's on clearance.  They have a slight Cinnamon scent and I thought they would make a great addition to the candle holders.  

Add a little autumn note card and it makes the perfect birthday or hostess gift!
