Makeover Monday

Well, I didnt really make over much of anything, but the name is catchy and I have stuff to show you. I wrote last about all the shopping I did and wanted to share some of my bounty... I found


at our local flea market... Its adorable and if I had lots of money and a way to carry all of it... I'd have brought home a dozen, all shapes and sizes.
I also found
which I will hang somewhere.

Now I needed some decoration for my front doors.. So I found 2 beautiful blue baskets and added white flowers and maroon stuff... here it is close up.The baskets are actually a bit darker than what they show. I love them! And I can change the flowers with the seasons if I want.I need to buy some spray sealant and seal the baskets so the weather doesnt destroy them.
I founds a couple of other treasures too.... a basket with an old spoon and rolling pin. I need to figure out what to paint it, a littel shelf for my bathroom and some cute jars for my bath salts... I will show those off in another post... gotta get some stuff done around here!!!.

Be Blessed
Karen

    Karen, your front doors are beautiful! I love that they're double AND red! Those colors are the exact ones I wanted when we built our home (I call it Federal blue) - you see it a lot in New England. But the mean builder wouldn't let us do it!

    I like your bounty of goodies that you discovered! For me, sometimes it's a good thing I don't have much money on me... my home would be overflowing. Hehe! I'm always seeing something I want.

    I LOVE your front door area, so beautiful! I only have one red door. ;) The blue baskets look good and like you said, it'll be neat to change it out with the seasons.

    Have a great weekend Karen!
