Door Knobs with a new look...


I got tired of the same 'ol look of gold so I ventured out with spray paint in hand!

1) sand the knobs with fine sand paper
(I went beyond...lamp did not need sanding)

2) spread all hardward out and spray
(I even painted the key to match)
3) allow to dry for 48 hrs. for a good finish

Spray paint used:
Rust-oleum
Metallic paint & primer in one
color: Oil Rubbed Bronze

Knitting I will go...

Still crocheting and have taken up a knitting project that I have in my creative mind.
It is a scarf, the finished piece will have the letter "I" on the right and the letter "p" on the left...this is the left side...you can see it a little bit. A B-day gift for my son in April. It's just radom knit, pearl...thats about all I know well in the knitting world.
I am getting along well...the other hip is in need and the knees talk to me also...getting old is not a cake walk although I am thankful for each and everyday of LIFE.

Were I find a joy in my heart and smile!
