My lunch hour makeover

I should have been making a peanut butter and jelly sandwich for lunch, but instead I was painting my mantel
I should have been eating my doritos but instead I was distressing over two coats of Old White Chalk paint
I should have been eating my fruit instead of admiring how beautiful the mantel turned out
I should have showed you what it looked like before I started
I should show you how it looks all dressed up for fall
For Christmas time

And for Winter time

 I should have that sandwich now
