November 12, 2013 By Meegan 27 Comments

Happy Tuesday! I am so excited to be here today. There is so much going on with the Holidays coming up and decorating, wrapping presents, family visiting, etc… BUT, I am happy to be sharing my $8 Thrifted Chandy Makeover today.  Seriously, I might even be a LITTLE obsessed with this!

So, here is the story and the makeover.  You will be amazed at this transformation!  I know, I was…

$8 Thrifted Chandy Makeover
One day out thrifting, I found these 2 beauties. They were each $8 a piece.

Thrifted “Bathroom” Door

November 6, 2013 By Meegan 4 Comments

I have been wanting to show you this thrifted beauty of a “bathroom” door for sometime now.  I almost have our master bathroom done, so I figured this is a good time to show you THE “bathroom” door.  You are gonna love her!!

You KNOW how I love to shop thrift stores, right??  Well, I kept telling my Hubby I wanted a door for the bathroom.  He was so confused, because the master bathroom DOES have a door.

I finally found this beauty, back in June.  She was sitting in the back of the thrift store just waiting for me to buy her.

I know, for $20 how could I pass her up, right???  She was just what I wanted for the bathroom.  With a little clean up and some paint, she would fit perfectly in the bathroom.

Isn’t she amazing??  She fits right along with my beach striped hamper!!

That’s why I needed a “bathroom” door.  Not to open and close, but just to sit and look pretty.

Using Antique Coral from Valspar, I painted the panels and frame of the door.  The routed frame is painted with a flat white.  (If you remember, I have also used the same Antique Coral to paint my thrifted table and chairs)

The door knob is actually a purchase from Hobby Lobby.  Doesn’t she fit just perfectly in our master bathroom?  She doesn’t need to be hung or even need hinges.  She looks amazing just leaning against the wall, next to the hamper.
I knew you would like my thrifted “bathroom” door as much as I do.  Do you have a random door in your house, too??  Tell me about it!!

Hometalk: A home and garden website that brings together professionals, bloggers and anyone interested in all things home. It’s like Pinterest without the hair and nails. Plus, it’s free!

Thrift Benefit: Did you know many communities across the country have thrift shops that sponsor your local Humane Society or animal shelter?

Shelter Animals: There are so many animals in need. Shelters do so much with so little.

Blog Tour: The group of creative animal loving bloggers listed below sharing our animal related posts in a blog tour.

Hometalk Thrift Benefit for Sheltered Animals Blog Tour starts Monday, October 14 and goes through Friday the 18. Here’s a chance to meet new bloggers and many of their animal family members, get creative ideas from thrift shop finds, or read about the wonderful animals that share our journey.
