Day 14- More Beach Signs for Beach Weekend!




Continuing with our beach theme, here are a few more beach signs that I have made……

Beach house in teal and aqua! Love this on this rough pine board. The teal behind the yellow easily peeks through without any distressing.

I thought these “Sail Away” signs would be adorable in a little boys nautical nursery. In fact, I planned on using one if my second was a boy! Since I have two girls though, no nautical nursery here!

I first made a Flip Flop Junkie sign here, and it was such a popular gift that I decided to make another, smaller one.

I've done several posts in the past on beach signs. Go to this link to see my posts sorted by beach signs. You can see all the posts I've done in the past that are tagged "beach signs."

Hope you are enjoying Beach Weekend! One more day to go! (Yes, I realize Monday isn’t the “weekend” but it’s right by it, isn’t it?! I think it counts!)

Chair Recover

I've been dyyyyyying to attack my parent's old dining room set they gave me a few months ago!

Planning to paint it (white I think!), but I couldn't look at the nasty '70ish material covering the seats one second longer!

I only got one chair semi-finished tonight so I'll still have to look at them awhile longer, but I am soooooo in love with this new redo!

Hopefully, you can tell the new one is the one on the left! If you're diggin the one on the right- wish you could see it in person- IIIICK!!!

NEW

Drop cloth cover, painted on nautical stripes using painter's tape and some navy paint I've had forever and use lots in my bedroom.

I'm thinking of painting some numbers over on the other side and putting the stripes in different areas on the other 5 chairs. Yep, I've got 5 more to go!


OLD

Photobucket

It's this nasty, icky, rough, weaved fabric that is probably older than me! Not fun to remove, took a lot of pulling with a flat head screw driver and pliers to get the rusty old nails out!
