As we searched through Louann's house, we started bringing together goodies and creating collections. We found more pottery (designed by her sister Lisa) than she realized she had. Putting it all together made a better impact. Audrey added a chalkboard for little family notes with fiesta mugs on the side for keys, chalk etc.... She also painted the table in the sitting area with a coat of red paint. The fun art work on the wall is by our friend Mary Freeman. </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: black; font-family: Times; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 17px; line-height: 24px;"> </span></span></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">My sweet cousin, Louann, who lives in Anderson, SC needed help getting her home </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">ready to put on the market. So my sister, Krista, and daughter, Audrey, and I loaded up the cars and trailer and headed up! We had set aside a week in June to kick it into </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">high gear and get it done. So I loaded my car and trailer with paint supplies and lots of accessories and headed to South Carolina. Louann, </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">being the minimalist that she is,</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> about fell over when I pulled up!</span></div>

I have been collecting all different types of bottles </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">from thrift stores for a long time.

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">the inside of the bottle was pretty instant gratification. Next step on this</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">project , once it dries completely, is to try putting a sealer on top of paint.

<span style="font-family: 'Arial Bold'; font-size: 16pt;">Hi !
I have been wanting to start a blog for a while to feature some of my own
work. This blog restoredrestyled
is under the umbrella of thelittleredbarnnorcross.blogspot.com. The little red barn features many
different artist that participate in<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: 'Arial Bold'; font-size: 16pt;">our bi-annual
artist sale.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: 'Arial Bold'; font-size: 16pt;">So
here is my first blog entry.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: 'Arial Bold'; font-size: 16pt;">Here is a dresser that I just finished. It was a lot of fun and inspired by Pinterest
projects. Are you trying to figure out what is on
the top? </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Arial Bold'; font-size: 21px;">It
is leather belts. I have </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Arial Bold'; font-size: 21px;">glued
them to the top, and trimmed with a straight edge. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Arial Bold'; font-size: 21px;">I
Love the way it turned out.</span><br />
