Hello World! Welcome Friends! No Trippin’ it Tuesday for the next couple of weeks. I really do not have the time to devote to this and do it up proper. The last couple of posts lacked a lot of tidbits that could make our dreaming just a little more complete. I’m just not feeling it. I don’t have wanderlust right now. All I really want to do is hunker down and have some fall air blow through here and do a mess of baking. Anyhoo, you’ll just have to dream in your heads…we are all so good at that, now aren’t we?
Today’s post is dedicated to all those little finds I snagged at Goodwill for potential wall art. Most of them needed mini-makeovers. This is what one of them looks like now.
This is what she looked like before.
There’s my little helper in the background.
Remember these?
Now they look like this.
A close up shot to see all the pretty details.
I just need to shop the albums for pictures.
Aren’t they just darling? I love their crisp, clean look. These little babies will be making their home in the voice studio for a gallery wall I’m going to attempt. I’m laughing already. Might be really great or just a plain bust. Gotta try! Tell me what you think. You like the pretty whiteness? That’s it for now.

Hi Kathryn! Thanks for your visit to my blog! I love finding frames – I finally just painted some that have been sitting and waiting for almost a year for me to decide what to do with them. Love how the white just brings out the details so well!
Robin says
Great Goodwill finds. The last time I went to my local GW it was 50% off! Everything looks better painted white. It brings out all the texture. Thanks for stopping by and leaving a nice comment. I love your cherries!
Tara says
I love them! Wish I had an eye for stuff like this, sometimes it's so hard for me to picture items re-purposed! They turned out great!
Revi says
Yes, we love the pretty whiteness! A perennial favorite, it is indeed. Looking forward to seeing your gallery wall. This is my first visit – Revi

Love them in white. I always tend to paint with black, but the white does look so fresh. Fortunately, spray paint doesn't cost much!
