Random and Rattan

I found the most random thing of my life at the dollar store yesterday. It’s a book called Mazel Tov, and it consists of photos of celebrities at their bar mitzvahs. Yes, read that again. This is a real book that really exists. Does it get anymore random than that? I doubt it.

It amused me so much that I started a contest called “Super Random Dollar Store Contest 2014″ over on my Instagram. I would love for you to participate! Just share a photo of your most random dollar store find either on Facebook or Instagram or Twitter, and use the hashtag #superrandomdollarstorecontest2014, and we will all have a good laugh, and the winner will receive some kind of prize! But seriously, good luck beating my book.

And in makeover news, here comes a rattan dining set that Kammy from Kammy’s Korner gave new life to, on more than one occasion. You might hear “rattan dining set” and think “Golden Girls condo circa 1988,” but with black paint and an image transfer technique, the look is as classic as can be.

See? So classy! And here it is post-paint job, pre-reupholstry job:

Lovely! Now go to the dollar store!
