{Tiny} Transformation Thursday


Welcome to Transformation Thursday! It's the one day a week we all get together to celebrate getting something done. No matter if you have a whole room redo or just spray painted something quick, everything is worth celebrating! If this is your first time or if you've been showing off your transformations for months, everyone is welcome!

Why, oh why, do I only decorate with crosses at Christmas and Easter? I need the daily reminders of faith that they offer! I am not a religious person, but I am very faith filled. I like my faith to be shown, too! Yesterday I found these gold ornament for 30 cents each.

So, I weathered the... uh.. cold weather and spray painted them. It took overnight indoors to dry, but it was worth the wait! I strung them with some brown (not Christmas-y at all) ribbon and hung them around the house. This one is on my China hutch. I love its subtle charm. {I am SO punny today! But seriously, don't make fun of my crappy pic...}

Now... whatcha got? I wanna see it! And so does everyone else! Just add your cute little project below by entering your PERMALINK and please, please, please add the link back here so your readers can find the great ideas. Okkkk... let'er rip, tater chip!

22 sweet little love notes:

I worked today at transforming my garden.

But you'll have to wait about 6 weeks for pictures! (maybe 7 weeks ) Then I should have 500 flowers in bloom to show you. . . :)

I saw some crosses on clearance from Xmas and was thinking about getting them. Didn't. Hmm, maybe if I see some more, this is a nice idea.

HI Gina,
I think it's nice that you spread your faithful spirit around your home. I try to do that in small ways, too! I've never found any crosses that small, I like them and love the message they convey!
I'm slowly recovering from the holiday blitz, I'm redoing the house for winter very slowly with little projects room by room. But I don't think any project is too small to share! So thanks for the "tiny" transformation today - I shared my tiny one as well!

I know what you mean about crosses. Yesterday at Hobby Lobby, I had to go put them back, because I really did not need any more right now. They just always remind me of grace and peace. Now, wait a minute how can you have too much of that. I wonder if they are still there :)
I had a great time visiting your blog.
Have a blessed day!

Molly @ A Bit O' Shine said...

Love it! I didn't buy a single ornament this year...I can't believe it. I almost always find something that I can hang on a wall and it won't scream "Christmas".

Greenearth said...

Thanks for allowing us to share our transformations.

Meredith said...

Gina, I saw those ornaments on clearance but would never have thought about painting them. Keep up the wonderful work, friend!

Debbie said...
