Chilean White Flesh Nectarines

Chilean white flesh nectarines. I discovered these while pregnant with my son. Craving nectarines in the middle of January, I searched everywhere and found Chilean nectarines at a produce market. I am sure I put several Chilean farmer's children through college with the quantity that I ate that winter!

You can only get them this time of year.  Keep a look out for them!  Yummmm.

 

...another reason to love winter.  Have a delicious evening,

Consignment Shop Mirror Redo

My favorite consignment shop is Consign and Redesign in LaGrange, IL.  They have
wonderful taste and always have something to tease my wallet!  Today's find was a mirror to go above our mantle.  The mantle runs the length of the wall and is up high, so I needed something narrow.  This is what I found for $30...

 

Perfect size.  Loved the shape, but the brass had to go.  Home to my trusty can of Rustoleum.

 

First, I removed the brass plates by unscrewing them from the mirror.

 

 

 

 

 

Then, I spray painted the brass with Rustoleum Heritage White in Satin.  (Since the mirror will not be regularly handled, I did not spray first with a primer).  If you choose to prime, a good oil based primer (like Rustoleum's) works well.

 

 

 

After it dried, I screwed it all back together and voila.  Lovely!  Perfect in my office.

 

 

 

 

 

No need to spend a lot on a mirror.  Have a great day!
