The weekend was a good one. Found an awesome new consignment shop! I went in Friday night before a hair appointment and ran out of time and had to go back in Saturday to fully investigate. So many great things! Found some things for one of my homemade Christmas projects, found some things for other random DIY projects and even found an awesome camel colored Ralph Lauren blazer for $24!!! Check it out if you're in the area. http://stuffconsignments.shoprw.com/home.php
Worked on a few Christmas projects this weekend. A little every weekend from now until Christmas! Pictures to come of some more ideas. :) I also did manage to try to grout added to paint to make chalk board paint. I had some grey non sanded grout left over from my kitchen backsplash and some grey paint left over from the kitchen walls. It looks and feels like it turned out pretty good. But of course, I did not even think to get some chalk before I did this project. So I will have to let you know if it turned out! :) I can share the link of course. http://www.theidearoom.net/2010/09/make-chalk-rocks-and-homemade-chalk.html Super easy! Super great idea too, everyone has left over paint and you can do it in any color too. If you don't have the grout left over, it's pretty cheap at Lowe's. I'd bet cheaper than buying chalk board paint from Michaels and it will definaely last you longer. I was wondering what I'd do with half a box of grout! :)
Enjoy the rest of your dwindling weekend and have a great week! GO STEELERS! HERE WE GO!!!!
