I got lucky at the local thrift store….I was kinda bummed as I found no new dishes….dang….but low and behold I found 2 end tables for a mere $12.99 each….

020

First of all, I was working really fast as it was starting to rain…I must have brought the table in and out of the garage 5 times ! See Mr.Grady Tucker in the pasture…..he was wondering what I was doing ?

023

He was talking to the cat Zorro and said “Hey Zorro, I’m all locked up and mom is doing something with those things with four legs….go  check it out……”

027

“OK” Zorro said…..”he asks and I obey…….”

030

“Hurry up while they are holding still…..”Mr. Grady Tucker yells !

032 

“Don’t worry, I think they are dead……..”Zorro replies….

033 

“Mom must be spraying them for fleas….this black one is kinda cute, it reminds me of somebody……”

035

“See, here is the flea spray….hope I don’t have fleas…..”

025

“Thanks, Zorro . You are a brave cat ! Glad those new guys are dead stiffs, as I don’t want to share my pasture with anyone else….”

See my lovely spray paint table ? I think it needs some TLC too !  I should have shown you the tops of the end tables,they were yucky. The paint makes a big difference.

Kammy, what a cute post! I wonder what our pets are thinking often. We probably wouldn't want to know most of the time! HA!

Kammy you are too funny, girl! If you only knew how much I want a donkey and a few goats too. The neighborhood committee would not be very happy with me...but I do! Thanks for the great pictures, your tables are looking fab with the black paint! Of course, I really dig the paint table. It could be sooooooo cool!

Thanks for stopping by today!

Great tables and I do like them painted black. And what a terrific price! It must be Met Monday with pets -- Oliver got in my pictures as well -- and he is usually camera shy!

Kammy, I cannot believe you got those side tables for $12.99 each! That was such a great deal. I think it looks really good painted black. It is amazing what a transformation a can of spray paint will do for something, I am always painting something!!!

I LOVE all of your animals, they are so cute!!!! Nicole

KBeau said...

Great tables, but I like your critters better. Hey, if you'll put up with me, I'll come on out to Colorado and help you clean out your fridge. BTW, my son lives in Denver.

Carrie said...

Great thrifty finds and the black paint really gives them an up-to-date look.

Fifi Flowers said...

FUN animal photos! Love what a little paint can do to an old piece of furniture!

Joyce said...

Dialogue is clever and cute between the adorable critters. Tables are a great score at that price. Please post when you finish them and let us all know where they are in your home.

Cute post! I loved how you brought the pets into the story. And the tables are just too cute. Thanks for visiting my blog & leaving me a comment. My anniversary is 6/3 & it will be 3 years. But hubby & I have actually been together for 13years. Seems more like 1300. lol.
