Welcome to KustomkopyKat!
We spend hours on Pinterest! Looking at everything..... if your like me you do a lot of oohing and awing. Then you wonder, "Can I do that?" Doesn't it look easy. I think that all the time.... ok, most of the time. I repin lots of stuff. One of my favorite things to do is snap a pic with my IPhone so it is saved to my pics! That way I can scroll thru my pics and find all I need to Kopykat something while shopping at Wallyworld or Micheal's. I suppose I do have to say I've been to Hobby Lobby twice. And its cool.... if you have plenty of dough in your pocket... My favorite part of Hobby Lobby is the 5 clearance isles!!!! Which reminds me........ I don't really like spending a ton of money on these projects (although my bank account may beg to differ!) I try to copy everything I like and make it my own! It doesn't always work out so well.... It's a learning experience with every project. I don't know about you all..... but I seem to have a knack for getting the whole household involved in helping me in some form or another. If it isn't holding the tape measure, it is changing out the batteries in the cordless drill. And sometimes its running down to the hardware store for me.
I'm a complete Kopykat! I can spot a great idea a mile away... and I have no problem sorting thru Pinterest until I find the right "new project" for me to Kopy.... this blog is all about those projects... I may not always remember who I Kopied it from.... But rest assured, if its on my page.... its kopied. and although I do follow a few blogs.... I DEPEND on Pinterest to supply all my ideas!
I've had these chairs for about 10 years now... sitting on my back patio 1/2 of that time..... they've gotten a bit weathered! and not in a good way.... So, I did what allKopykats do... I looked on Pinterest at probably 20 different furniture makeovers and felt I had gained enough knowledge to tackle this job.... Here is a sneak peak at the before and then with some primer. If you look closely you'll notice one of the doo hickies is missing in one of the arms... Luckily I had the do hicky! Aaaaah. But to figure out a way to get it back in there... the legs had lost most of the wicker wrap too! What to do.... what to do... Stay tuned. And I'll show you what I did to completely change this drap to fab!
embracingmessy was a great inspiration for this wicker makeover! You'll find her site a inspiration to become a kopykat!!
