around the house.

leaves are falling.

finally.

most of them haven't even started changing before

they've hit the ground,

but they're falling nonetheless.

spray paint and i are close friends again.

as are the sander and steel wool.

so far the only thing i like about this

super warm Fall is that it's

still warm enough to spray paint. :)

my rusty metal numbers got a facelift.

the 5 is now aqua and the 7 is just

primed, waiting for it's indecisive owner

to pick a color to paint it.

emily's ballet pink chair from the rusty chandelier in

st. joe has finally been sanded and painted.

only took a year and a half to do it.

it's the same color as before.

i had a darker pink in mind when i bought the chair,

but i had the ballet pink color onhand,

so that's what i went with.

krylon paints are 3 bucks each.

if i don't have to buy more,

i don't.

you know,

my birthday is in a month and a half.

i'm not opposed to receiving spray paint,

old fence wood or any other art supplies

as gifts.

just sayin'. :)

i'm wishing i had taken a photo of heidi's project.

she had a large piece of tin

(i have a small sheet of the same tin in

my living room--i adore it!),

and is adding it to a large frame that

their old landlord had in their basement(!)

to make a message/photo board.

it's gonna be Ah-MAZING.

just wait.

you'll see. :)
