Well, hello! How are you doing this fine day? Is your Summer filled with running around, or have you been able to rest and catch up on life? Mine is a little bit of both.

I chose to work on a Small Side Table Makeover Using Fusion Mineral Paint. I got the paint as a sample at SNAP! Conference and also used a portion on my “new” vintage sign.
