Trash and Treasure Monday!

Been a while since I hosted a Trash and Treasure Monday but I have been on the hunt recently for new items to redecorate our new (or soon to be) newly remodeled bathroom downstairs. One of my friends who owns a store next to ours had this piece out in front of her store and I almost fell out of my chair I was so in love with it! I could clearly see it white and sitting in my new bathroom all loaded up with supplies. It was meant to be! So I snatched it up and took it home and immediately started refinishing it before I remembered I needed to take a before picture! 

So its not that impressive right? Just a simple country cabinet right? 


But with a little white paint and some sandpaper it looks completely AMAZING!




We also found this beautiful antique desk for the store this weekend, but as the pictures show it took a beating and needed a lot of love. 



Four hours worth of sanding later...




Ready to be painted!


I loved this olive green- the picture makes it look yellow but its really a soft green color. 


And all finished up and ready for the store!


I hope all is well in your world!

    Wonderful treasures! The bathroom cabinet was an amazing find and will look great in your bathroom. I especially like that the bins and drawers are labeled. I would paint the letters black.

    How much do you want for that desk????? I would love that for Marty's room! I'm always amazed what a little paint can do.
