I have several projects I am going to be working on over the next few months, I can hardly wait to get started I have so many ideas for my treasures that I have found at yard sales. Here are a few pictures of the items I will be transforming into new beautiful items. http://pinterest.com/bhicks18/rustyrooster/

this is what I started with

then it went to this

And now it is a beautiful floor lamp

I brought this lamp at a garage sale everyone was passing it by and laughing about it. I brought it home
and quickly come up with a idea to turn it into something beautiful. It had two areas with a mable type knots
that look awful and was chipped and broke I took a hammer and chiseled it off. I took every piece off including the wires and switch. I then thought about what color I wanted to paint it, a year ago I had brought this fabric that had Eiffel tower, Paris lady's and other image from Paris, I got a spray can of Krylon Indoor/Outdoor it took two days to paint, I then put the Paris fabric I brought from fabric.com,a piece of trim on the bottom of the shade and with the magic of internet you can see the transformation a beautiful hip new floor lamp.
