All of these are perfect for my kitchen. I am not a blue girl at all, so I painted the cupboard Olde Ivory, dry brushed black over that and then briwax over that. I painted the hardware black and I knocked the little divider on the top cubby out to open that space up. I sewed up a little pillow and a seed bag for the cupboard and put my little wooly sheep in the top cubby. The rolling pin went right into my crock with the other rolling pins and mashers . I also painted the bowl Olde Ivory with briwax. I hung the bowl over the gameboard that Kindra made. I usually don't find much at Goodwill, but I'm so glad I stopped to look today. You just never know when you'll find a treasure ! Have a great weekend !

Such wonderful finds!!! I love how you refinished them too.

Janae~You are definately finding some fantastic items...and you are quick to redo them!
Aren't you just loving that briwax? It makes everything so prim and fantastic!
I would love to find a cupboard like that...yes, I'm jealous!
I like how you did your bowl, it looks really good where you hung it!
Why are these people getting rid of so many great items?
Great goodwill finds! Love that cupboard! It turned out perfect after your prim magic. :)
What awesome finds. The goodwill that I go to rarely has anything that neat. It has been closed since before Christmas due to roof damage. I sure hope it opens soon. What is briwax and where do you get it? Have a great weekend!!~~Melissa
Wonderful finds, Janae, and wow, you are fast at getting things done. I love how you did the cupboard. You lucky girl. Have a great weekend.

well girlie...you had a good thrifting day!...love that lil cabinet!...I have been painting a few things with ivory as well...gives a little contrast to all those dark primitive colors.
I love the cabibet. How do I find this paint your are using? I'd love to paint my little dresser that color. You really found some great treasures.

Hi Janae,
Love the little cupboard!! It turned out wonderful! I got a wood bowl with a handle just like yours at the GW a few weeks ago...I still need to decide what color I want to paint it.
Have a great weekend.

Your 'new' decor looks awesome. What a great find. Take care. Natalie
Oh I am loving that cabinet. It looks great. Love the other items you got as well, but the cabinet is my fav...
That is a wonderful redo on the little cupboard. Everyone finds such great things at their TS. The Goodwill in my town is a dud and it's been closed since the end of December due to a leaky roof. ~Ann

I LOVE your redos.. what brand of paint are you using? You are inspiring.
Hugs,

You did a fantastic job!
Awesome finds Janae! Can I ask what briwax is? I see a lot of you use it.. but what is it & where do I find it? Thanks a bunch. ~Justina
What wonderful finds!! I love how you finished them. Can you explain to us newbies what dry painted means and where do you find this Briwax? I am so loving how your cupboard was finished. I am definitely going to have to try it out. Thank you so much for sharing!!

great job....I am itching to go TShopping..I was at Macys yesterday and got caught up in the makeup area and fell in love witht he bare naturals line..want to get a make over and see how I like the stuff..played there for an hour..I do love the stuff..but man it is spendy...is it cheaper online...There were so many colors to choose from and the sales girl Kelly was so much fun...I can't wait to see what they come up with...:)
What wonderful finds and transformations, Janae! I may just have to sneak over to Goodwill myself this week ... just in case there are some treasures waiting.
I hope the new blog business is off to a spectacular start!
I really must get some of that wax! It works wonders! Everything looks great.
You Lucky Girl!!! Lil' cabinet looks great! Blessings, Cathy
WOW - you got 3 great pieces. They look straight out of one of my favorite shops. Wonderful!!
How wonderful !! I have got to find some new TS to shop at.
I just do not find that sort of things in town.
I love what you did with that cabinet.

Hi Janae! I love your Good will finds. You are amazing with how fast you finished them. They look so nice! I hope you have had a nice Saturday. God bless, Jamie
I was blog hopping tonight and landed on your blog! I love your Goodwill finds! I would have done the same thing to the little blue cupboard...it turned out fantastic! I have a before and after on my blog of a larger cabinet that I did like that. I was amazed at the results! I'll be back for more visits for sure!!
Smiles,
Beth
Hi Janae! Hey girl you got some great things goin' on. I love that little cupboard...oh my gosh what a great buy! I love it when I find great little bargains. I love the bowl too. this is fun, I love it when you show your things you got!
Blessings,
Debbie
Oh Janae you did GOOD girl! Those are awesome!!

Janae,
First of all, what a lucky find (or blessed rather) at GW when you found that cabinet and WOW on the makeover! It looks a prim piece you would find in a speciality prim store and your distressing is wonderful!
Your display is great!
Tammy
Hey there! This is my first visit to your blog and I am enjoying it very much! I have seen your blog name EVERYWHERE and finally had a few extra minutes to check it out. I'm so glad I did! And I'm sure I will be back. I am adding you to my bloglist, if that's okay with you.
I love all of your finds, and the re-dos you did on them are awesome! Great job! I love to thrift shop too.
Have a great day! I hope you will drop by and visit me once in awhile too.
~Carolyn
Love your great finds at Goodwill. I have also found some great stuff but need to redo them and I love what you did. You HAVE to tell us the paint and what dry brushing is and about the wax. I am new to all this and need some help. I have been doing everything black and finally my husband said he didn't want our house to look like a funeral home. Yeah, too much black can be depressing. Love that color a lot. Please share. Great display on the cupboard.
Love what you found at GW. The cupboard re-do looks great!
Great finds! I love what you did with the little cabinet. I am new to your blog and I will be back! Lisa
