Ugly Duckling #1

You know you've seen heart items
while thrifting & passed them by.

The day I bought this one...
I must have been feeling pretty
confident.  Lets face it, this is ugly.

Before:

It's a boring pale green.
Can you believe I paid $4?
Lets just say it's very sturdy.

Nothing a little turquoise can't fix,
right???

After:


Usually I distress edges, but didn't want to 
distract people from the creative backdrop!

I glued old dictionary pages onto cardboard for a 
sassy cool mod-vintage look!



It was a breeze to decorate this shelf with
little berry baskets, candy, Kand-ice, and more!


This Kand-ice still works
& was a rare garage sale find!



My mother-in-law gave me this big Santa mug
to sell in a garage sale. Instead, I used some
Pinterest inspiration to make him
cute Christmas decor!


Well, what do you think?
Show me some love with comments!

~Merry Christmas~
