Orange it lovely?

Before

During....YIKES!

After
Ooohh Orange..... I was a little afraid the color was too
"Plastic Home Depot Bucket Orange" but it is lovely!
Mauve No More! (Not bad for $3.00 Goodwill Lamps!)


Love it!
My mom is laughing about that tray in the first photo. Only because I made some snarky comment about a tray of hers that I hated once. I'm blaming it on two toddlers under two and lack of sleep during that time! My tray is gorgeous and somewhat odd at the same time. Not bad for 2 bucks at the Gee-Dub! (Sorry Mom!)

    Looks great in your space(see how I said "space and not "room", 'room' is so 1990's).

    Orange is so fun. I painted a whole room that color and it was really easy to live in.

    I love the lamps. Please tell me about your rug and sideboard in the picture. I signed up as a follower. I just did my first post in a long time on my blog because my battle with cancer is gettting in my way. I go today to get a CT Scan to see if it has traveled to my brain. If so I have about 6 mos. If not then I start the 8 hr. killer chemo and my hair will fall out again. ugh. But I guess, here is hoping I go bald. If you want to see my DIY projects, fiascos and LOL then go to my blog site and and go down and open up some of my older posts. You can sign up too if you like.

    I am thinking about starting an Etsy Shop but don't know how...how did you start? Did you have to get a license to sell products? When you price an item, how do you know how much to hold back for income taxes at the end of the year? Do you figure in S&H separately from your asking price?
    Thanks,
    nancy
