I've decided that I'm officially sick of Winter. I'd be quite the joyful girl if Spring would show her pretty colorful face early this year. Shoot, I'm already dreaming of Summer! The smell of fresh mowed lawns and barbecues, spending just about every weekend around a campfire, drive-in theaters with endless buckets of buttery popcorn with the tailgate down, and summer nights that keep me out way past my bedtime.
Ah yes. Soon it will be here. Until then, I will just live vicariously through my furniture (just kidding, you can't really do that) and paint this nightstand a beautiful blue-grey called SUMMER LAKE.
I love distressing. It's the best way to add character.
In case you're wondering, I got the photo frame from a thrift store for just over a dollar. The adorable basket surprisingly wasn't a thrift store find, it came from Fred Meyer! It was on sale for just over $10, which I didn't think was too bad. I couldn't resist it's rustic-ness.
Have a great weekend!
See who I'm linking up with HERE!
