This idea was completely stolen from inspired by Richella @ Imparting Grace. I wanted my pots to have a weathered patina look to them, and never would have thought to use the stone spray paint to do it. I had tried a while ago with just some white paint, but I love the texture this gives.
I saw it at Michael’s of all places, where they seem to be clearancing out all of their Valspar paint. So, I got this can for 3.99. Stone spray paint can be pricey, so I snatched it up at this price.

We have a fabulous guest today. Laura Cochran Moffat of LPC Interiors sent me South Carolina and agreed to share some things she loves about her beautiful state. Take it away, Laura!

I was just catching up on a little O, and saw Martha on there AND did you know there is a downloadable 50% off any Martha item at Michael’s? It’s only available to download until midnight Wednesday night, but the actual coupon is good through October 16 and it says one coupon per customer per day, so I would print off more than one. Her stuff never goes on that great of a sale! Just wanted to give you a heads up in case you had your eye on anything…I’ve been eyeing one of those punches.

Or some glitter.

Or that circle cutter.

Stop Melissa.

Have a good night,

Ohio? Check! I loved seeing this in my mailbox from Sylvia:

We gots Hawaii!! Erin Vanek lived there for six years (lucky!) and sent us one of her plates:

I received this email from a lovely reader last week:

I love my readers! I got this email from Joanna today:
Girl, you read my mind! I was there last night and I discovered the same thing! I only got two of these, but there was sooo much more on clearance. I’m going to be using some in my living room! I also saw some big chunky mirrors for 75% off (I know~where was my camera??) I didn’t get any because I had gotten some at their January clearance, but you can usually unscrew the mirror and put a picture in its place for a big impact. I’ll show you what I mean next week…
