The Petty that Adds Spice

Whew! Now that I have finally gotten those miners out of the mine, I can find time to create a blog post!  (Why do I think I can help by sitting on my sofa in the next hemisphere and watching t.v.?   Technically, I guess my prayers are a huge help!)

Now I will digress from the really important (human lives-God-survival) to the petty (decorating).  Just adding a little spice to life.

Several years ago, I found this cute corner shelf at an antique store in Morristown, Tennessee while visiting my dad.  If I remember correctly, it sat beside me in the front passenger seat all the way back to Georgia.

The dark brown piece is less than eye-catching, but much-needed by my girls who share a room and always need a place for "things."

I pulled out the same paint I used on their dressers - Wintergreen Ash by Laura Ashley/Valspar.    And I took some advice from the amazing Miss Mustardseed's blog, and scuffed up the paint to give the piece a little more character....

 Much Much Much better!

Now it is ready for their petty stuff.  (And it is pleasing to the eye!)
