True Confessions...I am an eBay-a-holic. I've found some great things for great prices using eBay and I love being able to shop in the convenience of my own home.
I began looking on eBay for a chandelier to use in the dining room at Doc Holiday. I really love the vintage tole chandeliers that look like bamboo but are made of metal and there is usually a nice selection to choose from online. My criteria was it had to be pretty and it had to be in working condition and it had to be inexpensive.
I finally found one I liked, bought it, and had it shipped. But it was damaged in the shipping.
Two of the arms were broken--Booo! I was so disappointed but I didn't want to send it back because it was so well-priced. So instead I found a handy friend, Drew McRay, who repaired it.
I was excited to try it out at Doc Holiday but booo again! It seemed just a tad too small for the dining room but it was just right for the bedroom in the "little house". So I asked Patricia from Tybee Girl Helpers to spray paint it and voila!
Doesn't this just beckon you to come closer?
It's amazing what a can or two of spray paint can do! This one is Rustoleum Ultra Cover X 2 Glossy paint in Key Lime.
Ooo La La! I just love it!
Spray paint is awesome! Have you ever spray painted something that transformed it's appearance? I'd love to hear about it in the comments--share pictures or links if you'd like!
