Weekend Project

It is Monday!

Where did the weekend go?

Ours went by too fast!

We had several projects to keep us very busy and I will share those

with you through out the week.

Today, I am sharing the project that took my poor husband 

almost all Saturday to complete!

Seems simple, but it was very hard to do.

A couple of weeks ago, one of my husband's coworkers and old friend

of ours, offered us a pot rack that he just had taken down from his kitchen.

His wife didn't want it anymore and he said he was offering it to me, free of charge, 

before he took it to GW.

Are you kidding me?????????????????????

I have wanted one of these racks for ever and ever and ever!!!!

OOOOOH! I was so happy!!!

We made a few changes on it and, although, I still need to buy some 

pretty pots and pans, ( I am thinking copper), I think my husband deserves an A

for this project! He did an awesome job!

This is what my new rack looks like 

This is what the rack looked like when we received it.

As you can see, there was no way to put any decor up there

So, we bought two of these.

 And after almost all day of cutting, measuring and installing,

this is what he came up with.

When he was finished, we sprayed painted it with 

Rust-Oleum Metallic Oil Rubbed Bronze to match the kitchen lamp

I put up there my new rooster, a candle holder I had bought from Tuesday Morning and

one of the green jars from a set I had from Kirklands for a long time.

And here is the finished product!

I am sure I will change the decor on it as time goes by and I get some

 pretty pots, but, for now, this is what it looks like.

I am very pleased with the way it turned out.

I appreciate you guys taking the time to visit!

Happy Monday!
