I really wanted to do something to liven up the side of our shed. It was previously quite blah and boring. Not much going on. It faces our backyard and it is visible from our deck where we do quite a bit of entertaining. I wanted to do something a little shabby chic. At the great barn sales I went to last weekend, I picked up two beautiful old ceiling tiles for 5 dollars each. At another barn sale, I bought a wonderful old window frame for 2 dollars. I cleaned the remaining glass on the window and made curtains for it from an old tablecloth I had laying around. I stapled the tablecloth curtains to the inside of the window frame and put a little green paint on it to match the ceiling tiles I painted and distressed. I then moved a shabby chic white metal plant stand with blooming impaitens to add another touch of color. Total cost of this project: 12 dollars, which is what I spent on the ceiling tiles and window. I already had the paint and tablecloth on hand.
