From Trash To Treasure

Ok, so it's a trash can. But not just ANY trash can. I saw this trash can at the Salvation Army, and fell in love with the detail on it! Only I thought it would look 23985934857 times more amazing in a different color.



 So after a few coats of Rustoleum Aqua, and Ralph Lauren Techinque Glaze in Tobacco, I have a gorgeous trash can to go in my bedroom! 




$1.78 well spent!

  3. Very cute! I love your blog. I'm trying to follow, but GFC isn't working right now. Since we're both on blogger, we should still be able to follow each other even after the changes! The lace shirt below is cute, too.

  5. Gotta love someone who can see beauty in the trash can at the thrift store! Turned out beautifully!

    I have 5 kids, and home school and love anything DIY/decor/design. So happy I found your site.
