Lenticulars and Black Vases, Oh My!

 

What else is one to shop for on Prime Day but new Halloween to do?

It took an entire afternoon to rearrange my Lenticular Gallery and fit in these two new his and hers vampires, but for $9, I couldn't resist! I keep seeing ones I already have online, and lenticulars don't seem to be as popular as they once were, so I was excited to find ones I needed that weren't in a set with duplicates. With this summer heat, it's also taken a few more nails, tape, and that tacky blue stuff to make the pictures stick! At least my parents got a kick out of my gallery when they finally saw it. My dad laughed at each angle, but my mother gave me a proud, “Ew!”

Of course, I've been unable to do a few painting projects I had intended recently thanks to the 100 plus weather, but I did doctor a thrift vase in the spring! If you saw my last so called “Mini” Thrift Haul Video, you know the one. Naturally, my go to color is black, but I left the copper style accents on the vase as they match some of the copper and bronze looking hardware in my home. $14 for the vase and $7 for the long stem florals and voila I have something that looks twice as fancy in my little library. That Shakespeare bust was a Goodwill find, too! I've written about Painting It Black for sophisticated trash to treasure as well. Quelle surprise.
