what to paint, what to paint?

So I found this ADORABLE little table and stool at Goodwill for $1.99, YES you heard me right only $1.99. I COULDN'T pass it up! The design on it is cute with the little rainforest theme, but it's not my daughter and doesn't fit into any rooms we have. So this is my new project. I'm not really sure quite yet what I want to do to it, I'm thinking chalkboard paint. Well see...check back soon for the revamp.

who doesn't like brown with pink polka dots?

So I had been looking for something to put all my daughters clothes in, because I just had those rubbermaid drawer containers and I was getting sick of those, as she gets bigger so do her clothes, and those just weren't cutting it anymore. So I looked at Craigslist, just for the heck of it and I stumbled across this entertainment center-in the FREE section-I couldn't pass it up! So I got my brother and cousin to do the heavy lifting. My best friend came over and helped me, took about 8 hours of sanding and painting and to finish it. I took off the UGLY handles that were on it before and put on knobs I got at home depot. I also got a closet rod to hang in the center part with the doors.
