Oh my goodness!
I found the ugliest and chintziest looking jewlery box at the thrift store.
Only .50 cents.
It is heavy and I knew it had potential.
But after I bought it, it has just sat in my "to do" pile.
I kept looking at it and lost all hope that it would ever be pretty!
(Enter my sister Sharla!)
"Hey Bonnie, let's do something fabulous with this!"
Me "Be my guest. I got it for a good deal but now wonder what I was thinking!"
So she snatched it up and rummaged through my spray paint bin.
She pulled out this luscious berry pink color!
(Oh I do love that one)
Then she took the jewelry box outside and started to revamp it.
Of course, I forgot to get a picture of the whole thing before she redid it.
But you will get the idea from the below picture!
(I'm cringing)
Pretty nasty huh?
But after a coat or two of this luscious spray....
And some Rub n' Buff ...
