Babies By the Pool Side

Here's a great and fun find....my neighbor had put these out to the curb..still in great shape and knowing my little granddaughters would just love them sitting out by the pool...little rough



Cleaned and primed

started painting..Seaside blue, Behre from Lowes

Pumpkin from Walmart


I just love the colors of them.....now mind you, I paid NOTHING to do any of this. The chairs were givers, I had the paint on hand, this is the way I like to "Rejunenate"...using the things I already have.
I thing I really what to add some more painting, maybe polka dots, flowers here and there, stripes...I dont know, maybe they are just as great they way they are...I would really love some suggestions..let me know what you think, should I add or not?

Sad to Sass

"Love" these frames......
Several months ago my neighbor was having a garage sale...while searching through all the goods, I came across these 6 round frames. Ugly for sure, seems that no one else had even taken a look at them........but da ding, my mind starting rolling, knowing I could do something with them.

Orignally, was going to paint them and put a photo of each of my 6 grandchildren in the frames, but truthfully I have photos everywhere of them (adore them)..so I wanted to do something different.

Took the frames apart, primed them and then painted them with Apple Barrel black craft paint, then put a coat of Valspar Clear Protection that was bought at Lowes. Knowing most people spray paint...but truthfully I enjoy painting and to me the smell of spray paint sticks around too long. But for sure it is everyones own personal opinion....Knowing I wanted them black and shiny. The hanging hoops were sprayed painted with black satin spray.

The bird pictures that were in the frames, they are made of some kind of hard board. Wrapping them in flannel using my glue gun to attach (color didnt matter, I only put it there to give a little lift to the fabric that would finish off the look). This wonderful fabic I already had, bought it years ago to recover something else and had about 3 yards left over. Picking out different sections of the fabric so they would all be different. Again hot glued the fabric.


Popped the fabric circles back in the frames.....hung them on my wall and ...WA LA!! I love them..




The only cost was of the frames for $2.50, having everything else on hand.
So the next time your out looking "crafty" shopping..dont pass up good ole frames

My introduction...first blog

My first blog on this sight, kindof intimidated.....I have read many blogs, enjoying others words, imagination, and a commitment in sharing their talent through blogging. I look forward to becoming a part of this community and hope I receive support and a ton of followers enjoying my Rejuvenated Junk.
Finding the items I "Rejuvenate" come from friends getting rid of things, garage sales and even curb side. If I believe it I can make it something worth using or displaying in my home, I put my claim to it. The item/s may sit in the garage or under a bed for months until I either have time or I have finally figured out how I can "Rejuvenate" it into something hopefully everyone will love.
I would love to be a part of party's, trade blogging and share in ideas. ...I look forward to meeting and sharing in this crafty blogging family.
