Pinterest Friday: completed projects

This last week has been a bit hectic so I wasn't able to complete the projects I had hoped so today we will take a look back at two projects I have completed.

Project 1: The first project is a desk turned end tables.

 from U Create. 

 I, unfortunately, do not have a completed before picture but here is one after it was cut and rounded.

This was a free all wood desk that came from my husbands Oma.  My husband and father-in-law were kind enough to cut it and round the edges (well almost all the edges, the router broke on the second half).  From here I peeled off the linoleum top and removed the drawer pulls.  I then sanded down the entire piece, painted and installed new hardware.

Price:
Desk:  FREE
Paint: $5 (found on the miss match paint clearance shelf at Lowe's)
Hardware: $12 (Lowe's)

Total: $17 for two end tables.

Project 2:

found at Home Goods.

These are two handwritten recipe's that I had found in my granny's old cookbook.  My granny died when I was 13 so these are very dear to me.  As soon as I saw the idea on Pinterest I knew I had add this artwork to my kitchen.  I love seeing them several times a day and being reminded of my granny (which my two oldest girls are named after).

Price:

Frames: $1 for both (from Goodwill) I spray painted these with some red paint I already had on hand.

Total:  $1 for one of a kind kitchen art.

I hope you all are having a great Friday!  Go on out and create something this weekend!
