From drab to fab!

Last week I went on a Goodwill spending spree from Beverly Hills all the way up to Van Nuys (which is right next door to Gemco, CA – home to the set of Dunder Mifflin Paper Co! on The Office. I <3 The Office, thankyouverymuch!).

Anywho, one of the things I bought on my spree was this picture frame:

It was more than I really wanted to pay for a Goodwill frame ($2.99) but lemme tell you what! Goodwills in “Hollywood” are NOT dirt cheap! I’ve gotten some totally awesome stuff probably from really rich stuck up famous peeps, but finding a dresser for like five bucks just ain’t gonna happen here in the land of the rich and famous.

So anyway, I paid $2.99 for this frame that some 12-year old tried to paint green dots on.

After a couple coats of FLAT black spray paint, I think she turned out pretty great.

Of course, any picture frame with those totally adorable kids (and Minnie!) can’t look too shabby, can it? I lurve my new frame!! And I lurve my kids even more. <3

(Lots of pictures of my family here!)

And for all you “Office” fans, you can thank me now and later. 😉

    I love spray paint. There’s very little that can’t be fixed with a little spray.
    Came over from SITS.

    I LOVE THIS FRAME–We have tons of famous people here to and our Goodwill thinks they are an antique store. I would have grabbed that for 2.99 our store would have had it at $25 or $20-seriously.
    This will be on my list of favs-later today.
