a few small additions

My friend Prissy goes to yard sales every saturday morning...she has so much cute stuff in her house that she got for practically nothing.
 Of course I wanted the same so I made her take me along this morning. i officially love yard sales. I found a few small things to help make our empty house a home.



the shelf was $2, and the clock was $1. they looked fine but i wanted these colors (we painted the living room walls a cream color,  it kinda looks like a pale yellow, and i love gray and yellow together) so i bought my best friend, spraypaint.


Our living room.. its coming along. new carpet, new paint, new baseboards. trust me, it looks a million times better than when we first got the house.



the middle frames were 25 cents each. i spray painted those also.


As you can see our walls are huge and make the pictures look tiny. we'll gradually add more to fill the wall up
A big thanks to Dan for hanging all this up PERFECTLY!

Shay and I are ADDICTED to spray paint!!!!!!!!!!! (As you could tell from my last post!)I wish we had our own place so we could get new carpet, and paint etc..We hit up a few yard sales the other week too, didn't find anything though...It's fun to go to the
DI and find random things like that to paint and use!
