Freshening up

When you look around your house,
do you ever get that feeling that things need to be fixed,
you know, freshened up,
 to look clean and new again-

Some days, I think everything could use a touch up,
(including yours truly!)
So, I scrubbed down my potting table-
it's pretty color had aged over time -
being out in the elements-


I thought of staining it again, but
I need me some instant gratification-

you know what I mean,
"the instant" -a can of spray can give you!!
The transformation began-


Here it is with the 2nd coat on-

The final reveal-
what a difference a can of spray makes-
It's refreshed, renewed and revitalized!

Doesn't it look pretty?

I love what it does for that corner of my patio-
almost too pretty to work on! lol

Well, take care, gotta fly- Claire
