A Story Of Two Lanterns

Thanks Susan for hosting today's event.

Be sure to stop by

"Between Naps On The Porch"

and visit with all of today's participants.

Last week I told you, I would milk one more

post from my kitchen update, but I decided

to take it outside this week.

This is a little lantern I have on my deck, (I know

change the light bulb), she has a matching sister,

in far worse shape than she was in. This one looks

pretty good after a good cleaning and a fresh coat

of paint.

Her matching sister had more problems,

missing electrical cords ,etc., she had lived a harder

life!

DH offered to rewire and get her going again,

but I told him I thought I might have a

better ideal!!

He was great to cut all the wire screen for me,

and after a little cleaning and a couple coats

of black paint....

The screen was left over from the kitchen

cabinet project, the lanterns were FREE,

so after hitting my stash of black paint...

I'm Happy!!!!!

They still need one more coat of paint, rain, rain

go away.

Perfect spot for a morning cup of coffee,

afternoon tea or maybe a glass of wine in

the evening.

Hope you enjoyed your visit, don't forget to let me know what you think. I love hearing from you!!! Bye For Now,
