TIME OUT!

I'VE BEEN A BAD GIRL!

TIME OUT!

MY MOM BABYSITS A FEW KIDS AND

SHE ASKED ME IF I COULD MAKE THIS

LITTLE BENCH FOR HER.

I USED MINERAL SPIRITS

TO CLEAN OFF THE CRAYON THAT WAS

SCRIBBLED ALL OVER. IT CAME OFF

INSTANTLY...

I ADDED SOME WORDS...

AND PAINT...

I USED A WATERED DOWN MIXTURE

AS I WANTED IT TO HAVE A

WASHED LOOK TO IT.

THEN I USED WAX FOR THE FINISH.

I TRANSFORMED IT INTO

A TIME OUT SPOT.

THE BENCH IS SMALL AS IT IS MENT

FOR TODDLERS. THE BEAUTIFUL

SCENERY IS COMPLIMENTS OF MY MOM'S

WONDERFUL LANDSCAPE SHE GETS TO

LOOK AT EVERYDAY IN UPSTATE NY!

MY MOM LOVES IT BUT THE KIDS MIGHT

HAVE MIXED FEELINGS.

MUDD ROOM LOVE

MY MUDD ROOM IS FINALLY DONE!

I GAVE YOU A SNEEK PEEK A
WHILE BACK THERE WERE A FEW PROJECTS INVOLVED IN THIS PIECE SO
IT TOOK ME A LITTLE BIT TO GET IT
ALL DONE!

HERE ARE THE ORIGINAL PIECES
BEFORE...

1 . IKEA TV STAND WHICH I WAS GOING TO GET RID OF AS I WASNT USING IT

I HAD TO TAKE OFF THE WHEELS AND

REPLACE WITH LEGS THAT I FOUND

AT HOME DEPOT.

2. A WHITE SHELF WHICH HAD BEEN GIVEN TO ME

 3. A OLD WOOD SHUTTER WHICH I BOUGHT

AT THE THRIFT STORE 2 FOR $3.99

ALSO I USED SOME OLD COAT HOOKS
WHICH I HAD BORROWED OFF ANOTHER
COAT RACK I HAD WHICH I WASN'T 
USING AND I MADE THE CHALKBOARD
TAGS OUT OF SOME OLD 
SCRAPS OF WOOD 

AND HERE IT IS

THE LIGHTING IS NOT THE GREATEST DOWNSTAIRS

IN MY HOME SO I TRIED TO GET THE

BEST PICTURES I COULD

IM HAPPY THE WAY IT TURNED OUT

REALLY ADDED SOMETHING

TO THIS AREA OF UNUSED SPACE.

AND I REPURPOSED THINGS I WAS NOT USING WIN, WIN.
