Change Is Good

Last year I bought this darling birdhouse---at a real store, not the thrift store.
Yes, I occasionally do that.
It looked wonderful on my mantle decorated like this:
When the holidays came, I put it into my "inventory room" (hubby's term for our messy storage room).
I recently pulled it out of storage and once again placed it on my mantle. It's the same birdhouse, I didn't alter it a bit, but I did alter how I decorated around it.
Do you change the way you decorate or does everything stay the same? If you're a "stay the same" decorator, why not pick one little area of your home to change up this weekend. I'm not telling you to go out and buy a bunch of things. No, not at all. Everything on my mantle was pulled from what I already had.

We love to travel. Well, that's like saying you like to walk on the beach, isn't it? Who doesn't like to travel? It's one of those things that just open you up to all kind of possibilities.
One of the places we've been dreaming about is Morocco. It seems so exotic, doesn't it? Morrocan style decorating is big too. If it is done well, it's a wonderful look.
Here are some Morroco-inpsired home accessories from Zodax. They need some colors mixed in (deep jewel-tone, preferably). We'll follow up with a post on that later...
This line is really inexpensive. The web site is Zodax.com, but it is to the trade only and is password-protected, sorry. Drop us a line if you need help though..
PS If you are interested, here is a travel article on Morocco from the NY Times.
The Finial Act

As you know by now, I look at the world through spray painted glasses. Almost everything I see, I wonder if it might look better painted a different color. I am constantly amazed at how color can really change the character of an item. One example is this finial, a recent thrift store purchase:
You may like it as is, but I like it so much better with a coat of cream paint 
topped with a bit of stain.
I realize that I've only showed quick little spray paint projects all week. That's what gives me a daily thrill! I'm out every day spray painting a little something. Every week my son has to move my "spray paint station" (a stool topped with scrap wood) before he mows the lawn.
It's not the prettiest lawn ornament but it works for me!

Are you a bargain hunter? We are. But we are not the digging type though. We have friends that love outlets and closeouts and the likes, but we prefer to get things that are new, nicely packaged, and in perfect condition when we get them, at a great price, of course.
This is why we really like this pillow collection from Surya. They are only sold in pair, but they are so inexpensive, like $40-50 per pillow including shipping!
Here are some really pretty ones:
You'll find these soon under our decorative pillows section (by the end of this weekend. Just remember to flip toward the end a bit...
PS For those who really, really like to dig, check out propertyroom.com. It's a site that sells unclaimed goods and there are some great bargains there, particularly for jewelry and electronic goods.

Hello my friends!
Before I show my little project, I want each one of you to know that I truly appreciate the time that you take to read this little blog. I am amazed and humbled that you find it worth your time to read about my "it's done" list. Thank you so much for your kind comments! If you do (or don't) comment I am very grateful for your support. I hope you are not offended if I don't get a chance to visit you. I have three young men at home who also like to have their time on the computer and most days it's tricky for me to get in some blog viewing time. During the summer months the only way I get time to post is to do it early in the morning before my boys wake up. Oh how I wish I could spend hours visiting everyone's blog---what a wonderful way to spend a day! However, real life makes it impossible. I'm sure you feel the same way too. I want you know that I really do value your blog friendship!!!!!!! And if you have a question for me or really want to invite me to your blog home, please just send me an email and I'll be there for you.Now onto my easy little project. I found these plastic keys at the thrift store for a quarter.
They're were meant for a child to play with, but I'm a big kid at heart and I love old keys. The yellow keys had a mouse image on them so I'll share those with my granddaughter, but I gave the rest of the set a coat of black spray paint.
Once dry I spritzed on a coat of metallic paint. 
I "spritz" by spraying at a distance so as not to change the color, just add flecks of color. I like this combination because it gives depth and an appearance of aged metal. The keys now look like real antiques.
