Whitewash!

We love whitewashed pieces for the garden. And guess what? You can whitewash wooden flea market finds in a snap. Just dilute white acrylic paint with water and sponge it on. You might have the urge to seal it, but leave it alone. We want that weathered look. Now we just need to make some lemonade. Pink, please.

We'd love to hear how you've decorated your garden. What are your favorite flea market finds?

Tea Time!

We can't resist vintage tea cups. We pick them up for $5 or less at garage sales, flea markets, and thrift stores. When we're not having a fancy tea party (complete with hats!), we like to turn them into pretty tea cup candles. They make great hostess gifts or a sweet thank you for someone special. And you can't believe how easy this craft is! Check out this week's Woman's World magazine for step-by-step instructions.
