I used the Spanish version of anyone's name that had one (Richard->Ricardo, Reachel->Reaquel).
For those of us who were not so lucky to have an authentic Mexican name, were dubbed a new name...
We had a bunch of chairs old chairs going to waste in our storage barn, so I decided it was time to do something new with them.
Off to Walmart I went--looking oh-so-terrible, but as Elaine pointed out, that's what Walmart's for--to have some place to go when you need some $3 spray paint, and you don't want to get out of your jammies.
I bought a few bright colors and then sprayed my life away.
Literally.
The amount of chemicals I must have inhaled probably took some years off my life.
The things we do for beauty...
I was totally stoked with how they turned out!
So cute, right?
