My First Post - So Chick (not Chic)

I love the bird-themed finds that are so popular right now: bedding, accessories, even adorable drawer pulls! When I'm out-and-about treasure hunting I have to get my self-control in check to avoid buying everything with our feathered friends on them! Anyway, here is a cool find I didn't pass up. I bought these guys at a consignment store for about $4 each -- cute shape, but not-so-cute color.

So, I decided to paint them a matte white -- actually, I just used white primer. Keep in mind, since they were glossy, I roughed them up with sandpaper first Then, after a coat of primer, I sanded the edges again to give them the shabby chic look. So cute, huh? :)
