Pinterest inspired

Made it Monday #4
I am linking up again with Monday Made it, I did make this Monday, but waited until spray paint dried.....and dried..now we have a heat advisory in IL...really as I was sweating and sweating again while painting. Guess I would have just passed out if I did it now.....




Close up of the water line from flood ....power washed these before painting

Watching the paint dry and dry
As you know I am cleaning/purging. When this house was built, it wasn't known at the time but it was built amongst a sand vein, so the sump pump go through about 900 gallons a day. This was confirmed after our sump pump died for the 3rd time in 6 years. (we are talking HEAVY duty one at that) So before this was all figured out, we had two massive floods in the basement. One was 18 inches, the other was 10. So ALOT was destroyed....But these cabinets were salvaged. That  was my mission to make over these. (As you can see they were a hot mess to say the least) Below are my inspiration pins......

A gal I know is getting married (I am doing crafts on my cameo for her) but her shower was this past weekend. I saw this, loved the idea of the initials, but wanted they could use after the shower. So here is my adaptation. Scrabble magnets.











 What I used in this:
Kitchen items all from Kohl's (her registry)

There you have my latest! Hope you learned that while pinterest gives us great ideas, we can adapt it to our own ideas! Thanks for checking in!
