Hello sweet friends! Today I'm sharing several storage boxes I've redone over the years, and I thought just maybe this might inspire a thoughtful gift idea for someone special! Anyone out there finished with their Christmas shopping already? I bow down to you! It seems I can never finished early! This package pyramid did arrive on our doorstop yesterday though, so this should help! These certainly don't look like anything you'd want to give as a gift, right? A little paint magic … [Read more...]
Flopped Night Table Redo
July 11, 2017 by
Hey there amazing Friends! I just love this day...it's Trash-to-Treasure Tuesday!! I really love that I get to see four more fabulous makeovers from my friends, and you will too! Be sure to look for links to their makeovers at the bottom. :) I had planned to share a desk that Jack and I planned to team up on, but we hit a little bump in the road so instead I am sharing another piece that I actually would have loved to throw in the trash! About two years ago I shared the makeover of this … [Read more...]
Mini Chest Makeover
November 29, 2016 by
Hey there, my awesome Friends! I missed ya'll on Thursday! I had a great long weekend, but I'm pretty sure I went up a pant size. I ate a half a batch of chocolate chip cookies myself. In one night. (And they were totally worth it.) Now it's time to get back to work stocking my booth for the Holidays, so I can pay for all the things I bought on Black Friday. No I didn't go out and fight crowds...I found all kinds of great deals online this year! My kind of shopping! I told you last week … [Read more...]
Romantic Flatware Box Makeover
March 21, 2016 by
It seems like there are a couple of items that I just can't seem to pass up when I go thrifting. One of them is frames, and the other is flatware boxes. It wouldn't be March Madness if I didn't share a bit of both. Today's makeover my sweet Friends, #21...can you believe it??, is this flatware box I picked up for $5: I loved the curvy lines. How could I not shove this in my cart immediately for only $5? I decided to give this one a bit of a romantic feel: And for the romance … [Read more...]
French Provincial Chest Update
August 20, 2015 by
Hi Friends! It's time for Themed Furniture Thursday! That's where I get together with a bunch of my furniture paintin' friends and we all transform a piece that fits a particular theme. This month's theme is animals. Wait until you see how creative my friends have gotten with this one! You can see those at the bottom of this post. I decided to transform this little French provincial beauty: She was a thrift store find and was marked at $49, but all furniture was 40% that day yippee! … [Read more...]
$5 Mini-Chest with Mirror Makeover
November 5, 2014 by
Hey friends! Today I have a quick before and after for you and then you can go about your day as planned! I needed a simple project after reupholstering two French Provincial Chairs nearly did me in! I found this little antique chest for $5 at a yard sale right in my own neighborhood this Summer: Those mirror supports are barely sitting in there. It just about fell apart when I picked it up, but a little wood glue and we're good to go. Here is the after: I picked up this … [Read more...]
