Thrifty Thursday

With just a coat of paint.....
What to do with that end table the kids carved their name into? Or an old hutch in drab brown stain? Well add a coat of paint (you may have to do miner sanding first).
Here are a few wonderful examples.
Over at You paid more than me you can see a very awesome hutch that was just painted for a hip new look. Try to just look at the hutches. The rest of her site is so fabulous you will not tend to be to awful thrifty after looking at it. LOL!!!
Check out these cute night stands. A Goodwill find gone well over at jcaroline'sblog.
If you do not currently own any piece you want to redo and are in the mind to shop for some here is a great article on what to be looking for. Also remember Criags List is a great place to look just don't forget to haggle a little.

Maybe I'll have to give that a try. We have a coffee table the girls etched scribbles into that we have been planning to just toss. Hmmm...Thanks for the idea!

Love those websites, thanks for sharing them! I love the HGTV makeovers, sometimes. Once in a while they do come up with real stinkers;-D
