Good to know...

Good Thursday  morning to you all,

This post was supposed to be sent yesterday but I had a little problem.  You see, most smart people would know this little tip, I however, must have needed an example to understand the need for this little tip.  I found this stool at Goodwill half off and decided my feet would enjoy being placed on it.


For most of you this would look beautiful just the way it is.  You know me, I like my white so I went off to Michaels to get my handy dandy white spray paint.  I brought the can home Sunday and went to spray and it was broken... ughhhhh!  I went back Tuesday and bought another which did work.  Yesterday I went to unscrew the feet to paint and when all screws were out it was still stuck to the fabric ughhhhh.   I am beginning to think I wasn't meant to spray paint these legs.  So yesterday afternoon I went out to the sunny yard got down low with a piece of cardboard to protect the fabric, shook the paint and sprayed.  Whoopsies, I had the nozzle pointed at my face!  Luckily no paint came out but the fumes did in my eyes and into my mouth.  Needless to say I now know what huffing is and let me just say it is HORRIBLE!  I could hardly breathe most of the night and had a pounding headache.  Of course last night was also curriculum night at the elementary school.  I was not quite my normal self.  Anywhoo, here is the final project.  It doesn't look great but I am not in any hurry to get out that spray paint.


Clearly I need to repaint up by the fabric, I will get to that later.


I hope your day is wonderful!
