before & after.

i found this strange little cart at construction junction for $4.00 about a year ago. i really liked it & thought it could be useful, but it was in really bad shape & i hated the top of it. it had weird french looking dogs all dressed up and acting like people on it. so weird. so i had been planning to paint it for a while, and decided today was the day. 

in a way i'm glad the top had the weird imagery on it, because it inspired me to replace the top with more images that i liked. otherwise, i probably would have just painted the whole thing one color. 

so here it is before...

...and after!

i just painted it with some paint i found discounted because it wasn't the proper tint someone wanted it, and then cut a sheet of bird wrapping paper & mod podged it to the top. really easy! i'm pretty happy with the results & glad i finally got around to fixing it up.
