Something about Target red clearance signs gets me all excited. I don't know what it is. Maybe it's the sudden rush of knowing I'm about to save money on things I wasn't intending to buy in the first place. Does that make any sense? Save money when I'm actually spending? I know but some of you can relate. But think how much I would have spent if I got the item full price months before. I go into Target for tissue and walk out with more kid clothes and home decor items, all because of those darn red signs. I need to learn to put blinders on when I walk in.
While on a recent trip, I stumbled across this little guy. Another bird figurine. This one is a tea light holder. Pretty cute and for $2.00 I couldn't pass him up.
He sat on the dresser for a month until I decided his fate. I was actually going to leave him white but I wanted a little color. Since I had some nickel spray paint on hand for another project, I pulled him out and gave him a quick paint too.
Not sure how I feel about him now. I like the subtle hint of color and how he looks metallic and heavy but maybe I want something more dramatic.
Ever have an idea of something in your mind but when the project's done, it doesn't quite measure up?
