We have been in our home for seven years.And since that time the stain on my stairs has changed from a warm glow to orange. If I could have done it all over again I would have never stained my stairs but had them painted white. Lately I have had the itch to paint them and so I did. I asked my husband if he would mind if I painted the stairs. Yes I know a silly question right! I knew he would be find with it but I wanted to ask anyway. I decided to use Annie Sloan chalk paint in pure white. The same color I painted my cabinets HERE Since my wall color is a warm white it makes a nice contrast between the bright white and warm white.

Last weekend my family and I went on our last little getaway before school starts.We took a trip to one of our favorite places Door County Wisconsin.

This summer I have not been fortunate enough to visit many garage sales.We have been super busy and have not had the time.Our summer break is nearing the end! But very a couple of weeks ago I scored big at a garage sale. One of the pieces was this medicine cabinet I found for 20.00.I thought that was a great price.Love the patina on this. I added this to my Creative space HERE And at that very same garage sale I spotted this piece too. Not very attractive I know.But for 3.00 I knew I could make this shine again.It was missing a knob. The one that is on this piece is one I added from my collection of ... View Post
