A little before and soon after

I am beginning to work on some before and after projects.  
Obsessing over different things does keep me busy!
I have chosen to sand and paint my "Honey's" luggage stand.
My grandmother (I'm 50) that might give you an idea how old she would be now.
She had my mother is her early 30's.  Mom was her only child.  
So the stand has been around awhile.


I have sanded and begun to prime.  I haven't decided yet what color I will paint.

I have bought two ribbons which I will post as soon as I get pictures.  
I have to decide which to use.  I would love for you all to help me.

This next picture is an old wooden table in my daughters back yard.
 I am sanding and filling in cracks with wood filler.  I will be lucky if this one turns out good.
I want her to be able to use it on her front porch.


The house is white with black shutters and a red door.  I recently bought her a chair
that is yellow for her front porch and a yellow pot.  I am not sure what color of this table will be.
You could help me there too.

Painted Letters

I painted some Quirly Q letters for my neice for Christmas.
She immediately went home and put them on her wall.

It sure made me feel good because she did it so quick and sent it to me from her phone.
I got the idea for the letters from my daughter starting college in the fall.  
I saw them on some of the girls doors. 
You can simply put them up with sticky tac which doesn't damage doors.
I am not sure that is the correct name, but it is what it does : )


You can't see from the picture, but I painted them white and put red dots on the curly parts of the letters.
