I”m joining Debbiedoo’s Before and After Party and also Kathleen at Faded Charm for White Wednesday make sure you stop by both lovely lady’s blogs to see the great bloggers who take the time out to show what they have been up to and also what they love!
Remember this lampshade that I won on ebay? I was so excited that I had to show it off right away and put it on a black lamp well I finally got around to painting it white! BEFORE
AFTER
Looks alot better doesn’t it?
Also remember this owl umbrella stand that I made for my mom back in the 70’s? I was so hesitant to spray it white but now I’m glad I did, I think mom would approve she liked to make a house and home too.
Do you like it better white? I had to move it to the other side of my cupboard because of the lighting is better here at night. I spray painted it and gave myself a break from the brush.
I forgot to take a before picture of this little ladder, just think patriotic…I love it, I don’t know where it will go in my house but I’m certain I’ll find a place for it! I was at Target Saturday and bought a mirrored tea light holder on clearance to go on here, I think it will look good when lit up.
This Friday and Saturday is our annual yard sale at my sister’s town, I have so much to sell it’s mind boggling but I want money to buy a slipcover for my wing back chair and other shabby chic things so it should be a fun weekend. I hope yours is too!

Definitely, yes, the white made a HUGE different in the umbrella stand. It is beautiful white.
And the lamp looks gorgeous too. LOVE that shade.
Thanks for sharing,
Patti
I love all your whites....I have the same little white ladder. I'm currently using it in my kitchen and I have a plant sitting on the top of it. The owl looks much better in white.
I'm envious of your cute little ladder!
That shade looks ten times cuter on a white lamp~and it was pretty dang cute on the black version!
Great job! The lamp and owl look beautiful. I just love my white spray paint, LOL
I have to say I do like it white better....and I am usually a gal for more color! Loves the owl.....thanks for joining in on my party this week. I do hope to see you again in two weeks:) Debbie
Hi Rondell,
Just found your blog and am loving it! Love seeing the before and afters and your ambition at its creative best to bring beauty to what you already have. Can't wait to peruse the rest of your blog and see what other re-makes you have done. Oh, yah, I'm your newest follower;)

Hi Rondell! I think your changes look better. I'm sure your Mom wouldn't mind that you painted the owl umbrella holder.
All of your changes are really coming together quickly.
Good luck with your yard sale!
Hey Rondell!
Love the owl painted, so cute! I'm glad you liked my lampshade re-do. I could NOT find a lamp shade that hid the socket of those lamps for anything, so roses to the rescue! :)
Your little ladder is very cute, but I'll be honest, I was having trouble concentrating for seeing your pool in the background...it's been SO hot here, it looks very inviting! lol
Have a great week
Missy :)
Everything looks better painted white!!! You did a great job. I am sure your mom would approve. ~~Sherry~~
I like it white better, looks great!
I love your lamp painted white and the shade is so darlin! Yes, the owl umbrella holder looks so much better.
The little ladder is very sweet, they are hard to resist.
I went by Big Lots today and they were out of everything! Glad you found one of the necklace hangers.

Oh sweets your lamp is to die for! I would love to have that shabby shade and it looks sooooo much better painted white! The owl is also AMAZING painted white as is the ladder too cute!
