Hello. My name is Kellie & I am a trash picker.
I also drive my son to preschool sometimes in my pajamas with a cardigan sweater or a coat.
On my way back from school one morning…in my pajamas…you guessed it. I found this 3ft x 2ft frame sitting on the curb of our street.
I knew she could become a beauty. A place for inspiration.
She is extremely light weight. {to my surprise while picking her up out of the trash, wearing my pj’s, in the rain!} She has a plastic frame. Who knew plastic could look so good???
She just needed some TLC. Alot of elbow grease, some glue, a ‘pin-up’, a time to set, & don’t ya know I had to give her a new color. For a new attitude!
A HIGH gloss shiny white. Yep, that’s exactly what she needed.
Along with some cork for the middle.
Oh, yeah some ORANGE burlap too.
So she could look sassy while holding inspiration for me! I love her.
can of high gloss spray paint $2.99 Wal-Mart
Orange Burlap $1.87 for a yard w/ coupon @ Hobby Lobby
Not too bad for the trash to GLAM 3ft X 2ft inspirational broad!!!!
she will be included in my Spring Cleaning Project that I will debut for the Spring Fling Party Monday March 22! Don’t miss it!
