I love Polka Dots
Polka Dots & Pink Garbage Can Make-Over
I’m hooked on polka dots. I just adore them.
I really don’t have any around the house though other than a couple of shirts with polka dots on them, it’s more of a love from afar.
Well, I decided to change that a little bit…I wasn’t allowed to paint the stainless steel appliances…or the couch (I totally asked) so I settled for the garbage can. Don’t laugh.
Hey, it’s better than nothing.
I took a hideous old black garbage can and turned it into this lovely piece of eye candy
Love it? I do!
What a cheery looking garbage can!
Nobody can stop me from polka dotting!
Polka Dot DIY Mouse Pad
The next polka dot project I did was a new DIY mouse pad to go with my new office nook. (By the way, I’m almost ready to show you!!!)
I used cardboard for the base and scrap material to cover it.
Then I dipped my finger in some gold acrylic paint and made some adorable gold polka dots.
I didn’t want a whole lot of purple in my new office nook but since it’s such a pretty color I thought this would be a nice addition.
Plus the only other scraps I had were hideous lol.
Ta-Da!
I just love it and can’t wait to use it. I’m saving it to use in the new space which I’m so freakin’ excited about.
It should be only another day or two until I’m ready to reveal the rest of my home office projects and the big reveal.
Won’t you stick around to see it?
