Kitchen Cart To Hold My Treasures

A while back I picked up a little plant stand at an estate sale. I spotted it and immediately knew what I wanted to do with it (this rarely happens, I usually buy something in hopes that I will come up with something to do with it). It was on wheels, was black and had three shelves. I knew it would have to be transformed. I snatched it up, paid for it ($10), and off to Lowe's I went. Bought some red spray paint, headed home and went to work. I have to say that I loved the way it came out, love that it was once a plant stand but now is a kitchen cart, and love the way it holds my treasures perfectly.












Hope everyone found beautiful things this weekend.

    Wow, what a find girl! Your cart sports my favorite color combo, red and turquoise. Love your collection. Also love the linens you have hanging. So so cute!

    That is so amazing I don't know whether to be petty and not want to be your friend anymore or to be sweet and hope one day I can visit you... and steal it! It looks so good.

    That's a cute cart! I was looking at a similar one this week, but it when I touched it it seemed like it would fall over. Not something I'd put my breakables on!

    Very cute. I have a thing for those old metal carts, but just don't have room for any more. Might make room for that one though.
