Toothpaste…not just for teeth

21 Oct

I don’t know if I’ve ever told you this before…but I love brushing my teeth.

It’s the best thing in the work, next to a can of Annie Sloans.

When I saw this trick on Pinterest, I thought it was brilliant but moved right along the next piece of Pinterest porn.

Working on this little redo last week, I actually busted out the toothpaste to mark my hooks on the wall.

And hung my Pottery Barn new-old frames just like a pro.

Take your toothpaste (ignore Bella’s teeth marks…she likes minty fresh breath too!)

Dab a little on the hooks…

Level the frame. Hold on the wall and press…

Nail…then wipe off that toothpaste…

Tada!

Love this trick!!

xoxo,

Carrie

Ha, ha! I don’t know why I think that toothpaste trick is so funny, but it made me giggle! I certainly won’t be forgetting that tip.

  I thought it was hilarious too…and laugh the entire time I was putting on the hooks! Glad we could make you smile today! xoxo, Carrie
