Brass Door Knobs

Since our house was built in the 90s, we have shiny, brass door knobs.  Or should I say, HAD.  My husband has been taking them off for me a few at a time and I have been spray painting them.



I set up my station out back.  I sprayed with a primer first, then used metallic spray paint in nickel for the finish.

Girl-a-fy my daughter's room

Nearly 11 months ago, we moved into our home in Texas. I’ve been ridiculously lazy at decorating. Case in point, over 8 months ago I purchased this frame from IKEA (along with the rest of the world, apparently. I keep seeing it pop up everywhere). But it is cute, yes?

After sitting in my room in shrink wrap for all of those months, I finally decided to do what I envisioned with it. A little spray paint, scrap fabric, ribbon and glue gun …. voila.

My 5-yr-old loves to display pictures in her room and her ever-changing collection now has a place above her nightstand. And she can easily slip the pictures in and out herself.

I made this project display board last year from an idea I found HERE, but during the move, the clothes pins fell off so I re-made them. This is also perfect for my daughter’s room because she loves to display her latest projects.
