Painted chipboard planter

I'm back today for a simple and quick project that I recently 

picked up at the Target "dollar spot" for just $3.00! 

I knew this could be a cute little spring project!

All you need is a planter of some sort, paint, stamps, and some flowers.

The planter started off like this...

I removed the jute handles and then gave the planter two coats of white semi gloss paint. I let it dry and then used some foam stamps from my scrapbooking stash to dress it up a little. I reattached the jute handles and added two small pots of flowers. Since the planter is chipboard I remove the flowers when watering them.

About thirty minutes and only $7.00 {$3.00 for planter and $4.00 for the flowers}. 

Thanks for coming by!

I'm back and celebrating the first day of spring

I know it's been awhile, but I'm back! 

I had some unexpected health issues come up that I had to deal with and have spent the past few weeks recovering from surgery. The good news is that I'm now feeling better and healthy!

I've been looking forward to today for a long time...the first day of spring!

I spent last week adding some spring touches to the house. One area I love to decorate is the shelf in our main entryway.

Now if only the weather would cooperate and stay warm!

Have a wonderful day!
