Simple little shelf redo and a few thrift store finds

From this...


To this


It was painted a very pretty soft yellow but grungy and the color wouldn't fit with my decor so  I painted it Table Linen by Behr. I didn't want to shabby it this time.
I cut pieces of burlap to fit inside the back wall and used double sided tape to adhere the burlap, so far it's staying put!


I found this sweet little pitcher for $2 at Goodwill the other day, it's just the sweetest little thing and it was worth the trip just for that alone!






I also found this chair for a steal at a yard sale a few weeks ago, it's sits just below the shelf.
I love the curved top and the spindles.



And two more Goodwill finds,
a vintage bowl that looks like it's Texasware but says Made in USA on the bottom,
it's that thick plastic like Melmac with the swirls in it, in great condition for $3


And 2 little cups that remind me of McCoy. The have the similar markings and a number which I haven't looked up yet. I imagine they came with saucers at one time. $2 each.


Thanks for stopping!
