A little Rack

I bought this large, flimsy rack at a garage sale for 2 dollars. I took the top half off, spray painted it a matted black, and put in the back corner of my kitchen. It's just a little stand to go by my door. I want to grow some herbs in my house. It should work perfectly!
I found a cute little dresser online for only $8. I refinished it and made it look like a little gas tank. Some spray paint, new hinges, I was only into it a total of $20. Perfect for a little boys room or a play room!

Bench/Table

I forgot to take before pictures, but imagine a light brown table that was scratched up and beat up all over the place. I bought it for $15. It's solid wood, super durable, and looks great now! That and a small can of stain I am maybe in this table $25. Good find for me (being new with all this) and it was a lot of fun! I got it to put at the foot of my bed. Someday I will post pictures when it is all complete, work in progress!

My Porch

I don't have a big porch at all but I now love to sit out there. I got the 2 chairs at Costco, found the little table for cheap, and made the cushions. The sun is harsh in the pictures, but you get the idea.
