All summer, my aunt Kim and I have been talking about taking one afternoon and hitting every Flea Market/Antique store in the area. Shaun gets off of work at noon on Friday's during the summer. As soon as he got home Friday I left the house. We only had time to go to 4 shops but I had such a great time! I didn't spend over 40.00 and I bought SO much.
I found these chairs for 3.00 each and the picture frames for 55 cents.
I saw old window panes anywhere from 22.00 to 65.00 in all four shops. I found mine for $11.00. I am planning to use these for the food table at Lena's Vintage Farm birthday party in October.
I have big plans for the step stool also but want to wait to share.
I got up early this morning and broke out my favorite can of spray paint. I painted the chairs and the frame and put them on my front porch. I had this old table up in my attic. It was old looking so I gave it a new RED look.
I am planning to make a burlap pillow with my address stenciled on it for this chair.
I have been busy planning both of my girls birthday parties. Sarah Grace turns 5 in September and Lena Katherine will be 2 in October. I cant believe how fast time goes by. I am so thankful for one more year home with Sarah Grace. She doesn't get to start school until next Fall because of the cut off.
I saw this banner on a blog and loved it. I thought I would try it using the same fabric as the table cloths for LK's party. My sister Natalie and I made it in about 45 minutes. I cut and she tied. Super easy and I love how it turned out. I finished the window pane today also.

I couldn't resist the cute models! Emily is having a sleep over tonight.
For SG's 5th birthday we are having a photo shoot for her and all of her friends. The girls will get all dressed up and have their pictures taken with all of these fun frames. I have found these frames here and there and just sprayed them with the party colors.
I love the yellow chair! I found it at the Goodwill last week. It is over sized and is perfect for the party.

I wish I was as creative as you!
You have gotten some great finds!
Great finds! and I love the colors you painted the frames. I'll be back to check out your burlap address pillow. Saw you at Primp your Stuff linky party.
