Fort Worth ArtsGoggle
A few weeks ago I participated in the Fort Worth Arts Goggle. It was a great learning experience to say the least. After weeks of preparation, time, sweat, and some tears, I was ready.
I was pretty pleased with the overall look of the booth, but the weather was gloomy and thus not a lot of people. It was fun hanging out with my friends the whole day though. My sister and a good friend of mine both participated and we all shared booth. Check out the pictures below. Remember, all of the items pictured are for sale, so leave a comment if you're interested!

Garage Sale Finds: Patio Table and Chairs
I was driving around town for work one day and passed this awesome looking garage sale. Normally I wouldn't have stopped since I was working and all, but I had to. I saw some amazing things (like a wickers dresser and singer sewing tables) but I couldn't take them all. This table and chairs struck my fancy though, and I had been looking for something for our patio!
The metal frame was (and still is) a bit distorted. That can be fixed though. The glass top was in great condition, and with a little TLC I knew I could get it looking great. In my excitement I forgot to take any pictures of it at the garage sale, bummer. I have a few from the before stages though.
The chair color is Green Apple in Satin, the table is Iced Gray also in satin. I got both of the spray paints at Home Depot. The fabric was a steal at JoAnn's, along with the foam used to make the cushions.
For the cushions, I just traced the wood seat bottoms onto the foam and cut it out, wrapped the fabric around and stapled it to the bottom. I might run into some issues if it rains, but we will see. My patio is covered so they shouldn't get too wet. If you have an uncovered patio I would suggest making the cushions detachable.
I just love the way it turned out. It is absolutely perfect! Let me know what you think by leaving a comment below! Also, check out my other patio make over from a few months ago!
