Tackle it Tuesday.
This was a fun one ! Noah and i worked on it together :)
I bought this Pottery Barn refrigerator at a yard sale for $20, it still has the $99.99 sticker on back.
But, we had to change the color to bring it into our male dominated home.
Remember this color ?
It's our dog house shade of turquoise.
Thankfully my friend Terri ( whom i wish would blog about her sweet daughter)
let me know the panel is magnetized, so we can hang art work. Therefore,we not need to put on a second coat of "our" turquoise.
We are going to use it to house homeschool books etc..

Zech. 14:3

Here I go, again.
I luv this design, it reminds me of something I read in Israel My Glory;
Lord Byron's The Destruction of Sennacherib,
And, there lay the rider distorted and pale,
With the dew on his brow, and rust on his mail:
And the tents were all silent, the banners alone,
The lances unlifted, the trumpet unblown.......
And, the might of the Gentile,
unsmote by the sword,
Hath melted like snow in the glance of the Lord !
