A patched together lifestyle of thrift and charm...

Project Day...

A day off of work with no real plans for a picnic,
 etc... so what to do?  Projects of course!  
Here's one I finished up from a $1 find...
  No 'before' shot - but it was a very blond wood -
 modern style 50's bench.
Gave it a coat of mint green paint (cause I had some
 on hand that I wanted to use up...) and then some
 creamy white.  Did a bit of sanding to let that 
green show through...
 ...and added some sheet music to the top (cause I have
 some of that to use up too).  Just really liked the graphics of
 this Hebrew folk song and the coloring worked.
  Last was a coat of poly to keep it looking good. 
Hope someone out there will appreciate this nod 
to my Jewish friends.
