when lovebird and i first got married and moved into our first little home.
{it's an apartment, but it feels like a home.}
we refused to pay the hefty installation fee of
mounting our tv above our fireplace.
even though that space had "i exist only to hold a tv" written all over it,
i wasn't willing to spend hundreds of dollars and give in.
lovebird and i, not being big tv watchers (still to this day),
decided a little table of some sort would do the trick.
we ran to trusting target, and sure enough we found a little table.
when i say little, i'm also talking a ticket price of $20.
for these first two years of marriage, that little table has done us well;
it perfectly perfumed it's job while looking somewhat decent.
however, i happened to stumble across a complete gem the other day.
ya know, the kind that has a big red clearance sticker on it.
disregarding it's few scratches and missing door knob,
i snatched it right up and put it in it's place before lovebird could
even think of saying "no".
ideas of painting, sanding, turning into a
vintage masterpiece raced through my head.
however, i decided to do simple, {at least for now}.
i'm proud to say this little guy only cost me $4.89 for "repairs",
and i couldn't have asked for a better home for our tv.
trust me, i know there are hundreds of more impressive makeovers out there.
some are very time consuming and involve heavy labor-
which of course, produces a beautiful end product.
that being said, sometimes a little knob or two can do the trick,
and produce a just as lovely outcome.
a makeover doesn't have to be big, to be right.
now, go splurge and by yourselves a couple knobs to transform
a piece you are slightly tired of.
it will feel brand new all over again.
p.s. knobs are all half off at hobby lobby right now!
ready, set, run!!
