Amazing Friends, I finally finished the little table and chair set I brought home from my booth to redo! That set has been in my booth for well over a year and I just could not figure out why it hadn't sold. Here it is as I found it: I found the chairs for only $5 for the pair at one thrift store, then a few months later, I found the table to complete the set at another. Lucky, huh? Here is a peek at their first redo: You can see the whole first makeover HERE. I just loved … [Read more...]
Tray Table Makeover
March 20, 2018 by 30 Comments
Hello amazing friends!! Up for a makeover today? Always, right?? Me too! I shared a preview of today's makeover on Thursday. It's this tray table I found at the thrift store for $10: When I bought it, it was flattened and taped together like this: I really had no idea what it was exactly, I just knew it had a nice sized tray with it. The stand was just a bonus! I've included a few affiliate links so you can find the products I use and love. Here it is after a little … [Read more...]

That is until you open it: Yikes...that is where all the hard work takes place. Let's see how this baby turned out, shall we? Ooh la … [Read more...]
The Antique Armoire with the Missing Glass
June 29, 2017 by
Happy Thursday, Friends! Today I'm sharing another favorite from the archives. I spied this antique cabinet at the thrift store near my house last year. It was $79 and probably totally worth that, but the door was missing the glass and didn't close real smoothly so I passed. I went back a week later and it was marked to $49! I just couldn't pass it up the second time: It doesn't actually look too bad in this photo but it wasn't great in person. I'm not exactly sure what was built up on … [Read more...]

French-Inspired Girl’s Table and Chair Set
March 21, 2017 by
Hello sweet Friends! I have the cutest little table and chair set to share with ya'll today! But first do you mind if I share my heart a bit? We had to say goodbye to our sweet kitty, Holly on Friday. You may have seen her in photos from time to time. Most recently I was photographing this table I shared last Thursday: I didn't include this photo in that post, but took a few pics of her after she made herself comfy in the shot. I'm so glad now that I did. I shot this a couple of weeks … [Read more...]
Girl’s Vanity set from an Antique Side Table
February 21, 2017 by
Hello amazing Friends! I have a fun little makeover for ya'll today! Are you up for something fun?? I spied this little antique side table at the thrift store a couple of months ago for $15: I should have taken a picture of a soda can next to it so you can see how petite it is. It really can't function well as a side table because it is just too small but I did like the shape of it. However, I decided to pass on it. A month later, I stopped in the same thrift store and it was still … [Read more...]
Simple Tote Update
February 16, 2017 by
Hello sweet Friends! I'm back today with a cute makeover! You may remember back in the Fall we received several furniture pieces from the estate of my Hubby's Grandmother. We also acquired a couple of smaller things that came out of the shed, and one of them was this little wooden tote: It is clearly handmade and of course that's the reason I loved it immediately. I knew it could be cute and functional again. All it needed was a little paint magic and some love: Seriously, how … [Read more...]
Folding Screen Makeover
February 9, 2017 by
Hello sweet Friends!! Today my Décor Enthusiast Girls and I are back together after a little Holiday hiatus sharing something I love...stenciled projects! I share a bunch of stenciled makeovers around here, but I had to come up with something new for today. I decided that this folding screen I found at the thrift store a couple of months ago would be a perfect canvas for stencils: It was $35 and 25% off so I ended up paying $26 for it. I have included a few affiliate links so you can … [Read more...]
French Love Letter Tray
February 2, 2017 by
Hello awesome Friends! I have a sweet makeover for ya'll today! I must have passed by this tray at the Antique Mall where I have my booth at least a dozen times: I just loved the details of the frame. I finally decided to just buy it already. I thought maybe I could put some pretty fabric under the glass, only when I removed the outermost felt layer on the back, I discovered mold between the layers... Gross! Then I discovered the glass was not clear, but covered in foil-like … [Read more...]
