Milk Paint and More Wedding

Well Hello everyone! Missed the blog post for yesterday, but did some very neat things! 

Went to the store and got a few bags of Old Fashioned Milk Paint. Bought three colors, pitch black, pure white, and slate. I have a few things around the house that I wanted to paint. When i read on a fellow bloggers website that you didnt have to prime or sand what you are painting I thought what the heck! This is the best thing since sliced bread! So a few projects were started last night for the bedroom. Let me just let you know that this is some of the most awesome paint I have painted with, and I may try painting the cabinet in the laundry room to see if it will work on those as well! 

A few more pictures appeared yesterday from the wedding. Thought I would share them again! 

This is my side of the family, my Mom, Dad, My Sisters, and My Family! Whats funny is this is the first family picture of us probably since the early 90's! 

 Another fun and funky picture of the shoe's! I love this one just because the speed limit 98 is in there! Its very much my style!

  A picture of us telling our vows, funny thing is our ceremony was only 5 minutes long and everyone stood the entire time!

This one is staring out of the church stained glass! 

 Just having a moment with friends and family. Check out the awesome fascniator and amazing hair! Because of everything being so awesome we decided at the last minute to forgo the veil!

I cant wait to show off pictures of the reception and decoration, thats really what I am looking forward to!

Auction Finds

So we discovered a few things last night while going through the auction finds. One of the first things that we discovered was about an entertainment center that we bought. Barrett went to move it out of the truck and noticed that it was Henredon. I had no clue who that was, so without further ado I let my Mom know. Soon she called me and told me to stick it in the garage. Apparently we scored pretty big on this set, it’s worth way more then we paid for it, and it would have been a shame had we of taken paint to it.

Another thing that we picked up at the auction was this Sears stereo console. This console has a radio, an 8 track player, and a record player inside of it. Surprisingly all of the different things function just fine. Last night waiting for my parents to come over and help move this furniture around Barrett and I plugged it in and listened to some old Merle Haggard and Elvis Presley.

We picked up several other things at this auction, one of the pieces we got was a box of Military newspapers from the 1940s. These were very interesting to look at especially during war times. 

  Here are a couple of different pictures from a couple of the news papers. The first is declaring that Hitler is dead and that Germany has officially drawn out of the war. Its a very interesting article. The second is a ad for Oldsmobile who apparently made the tanks.

I am still waiting on more pictures from the photographer on the wedding. Eventually I will post that, also this weekend I will work on a tutorial for the Brooch Bouquet much like the one that I made for my own wedding. Just another day looking for inspiration and dreaming of all the things I get to do when I get home!
