French Bucket Vase

The French Bucket Vase is a thrift store find, do you remember this picture?

I spray paint it white. Yes, I know another white update. But, what is a girl to do when she buys about 5 cans of white spray paint for $1.41 each it was on clearance. I, also bought 3 cans in black.

I was thinking of using the french bucket vase for my curling irons or brush.  I was inspired by another blog. Jen, she spray paint a glass cylinder vase.  I had her link, but for some reason it's not working.

Here is the finish product...

FALL TABLESCAPE

I've been in hiatus for sickly reasons. I'm doing well getting my energy back on track.

I'm in a decorating FALL mood, so I'd like to share my tablescape...

Most of the decorations are from the CVS store down the street from my house that particular store went out of business last year. The store had a huge sale & I took advantage of it. 

From the Thrift Store...A pair of brass candle holders for about $3.50.

From CVS... I have two cage pumpkins and one orange pumpkin, which is in the center of the table, the table runner, and 2 pack of fours plate mats. The cost was no more than $10 bucks.

From Family Dollar...The votive clear candle holders a set of three it actually looks like miniature vases. I paid $3.00. 

I'm adding this post to Between Naps on the Porch.

Mix & Match Valentines Day Mantle Theme

Here is my mix and match Valentine Day's mantel focusing on I guess mainly on color. I've incorporated with what I already have in the house using a few Christmas decorations, such as the tin cans which has white snowflakes on red, a couple of red miniature Christmas trees, and the red ornament apples hanging from dry up silver dollar twigs.

The vase with the silver dollar twigs, the planter with the pink flowers and the votive candle holders are use throughout the year around the house.

The only items I brought was the red thin garland, which is wrap around the white candle holders and around the vase, the artificial pink flowers, the LOVE letters, and the white candle holders, which I got from the thrift store in all I spent about 6 dollars.

I've joined the Mantel Party at TheStories of A to Z there are many bloggers linking up displaying their creativity all beautifully done.
