yard sale find

i've never been a girl who likes going to yard sales.  but....once i started my love for spray paint i realized that i needed to paint things that i could afford to throw away of things went south :)  not all of my craft projects turn out so hot ya know.   solution- buy it from a yard sale of course!  this spring my sister in law and i went out one saturday morning in search of treasures.  this is what i got:


yes, that's right a bed frame.  i actually like it as is- but i had big plans for this thing.  before i get ahead of myself....guess how much i paid for this?  TEN DOLLARS!!!  can you believe it?  they were asking 15- i'm such a bargain hunter :)

so it's about that time to start thinking of putting miss annie in her big girl bed.  it's bittersweet really.  the only reason the boys got into big beds was because they were becoming big brothers.  that is not the case with baby girl.  part of me would love a crib around for longer. 

here is what i've decided for this old white bed:
 watermelon pink.  i'm in love.

a few coats on the headboard and foot board  and......
and there it is!  i'm sewing some pillows this week......this room is a work in progress and i am having a ball!  i love pink- and so does my girl.
