I am alive!! Yes, I’ve been away from the blog for a while. I’ve definitely been busy, just haven’t really felt like taking all the pictures needed to document and share. And, most of the time I’m just painting items to sell, so they aren’t very exciting projects to share. Plus, there has been lots […]
Guest Room Reveal
It’s a bit strange and funny to me that I’m writing a guest room reveal for a house I no longer live in! But, that’s my reality. I only managed to barely get the guest room done in time for Bob to take the pictures of our house for the real estate listing. And, then […]
Pretty Blue Chair
I had bought this single chair at a yard sale, it was cheap – $1.50. I can’t pass that up. I knew I would be able to make it look pretty. Don’t judge the disastrous state of my workroom at that point!! 😉 I was craving something different, specifically color. So many of my pieces […]
Fresh New Guest Room Dresser
As in past years, I am just terrible at blogging in winter – see here and here. In previous years, I think I just didn’t even work on projects. I can’t say that this year, as I have worked on many projects, with the majority of them being either for clients or for selling my […]
Top Posts of 2014
As I did last year, I thought it would be fun to highlight the top posts of 2014 to wrap up the end of the year. Last year, I did all time top posts, so to change it up for this year, I chose to focus on only 2014 posts this year. I’m not one […]
Striped Side Table
So….it’s been a while!! But, that doesn’t mean I haven’t been busy. I’ve actually done more projects than normal, but I’ve really just been focusing on doing what I feel like doing. So, that meant more painting, projects, relaxing and less computer/blogging time. But now I’m refreshed and excited to share one of my recent projects with you. […]
Stenciled End Table
I found this nice end table at the Goodwill store a few months ago. The leg wobbled a bit when I found it, but I knew the screws just needed tightened and it definitely needed some paint for a fresh new look. But, for only $4.97, how could I resist?! I knew that I wanted to try something different […]
Folding Chair Makeovers on Hometalk
Have you heard of Hometalk? Hometalk is full of home and garden inspiration….it’s ok, go look if you haven’t already browsed there, just be sure to come back 😉 It is a great place to find some inspiration, but also to ask questions and get some answers and suggestions of what to do or how to do […]
Chalk Paint Dresser Makeover
Bob and I just returned from a great week of vacation! We spent part of the week at the beach and part at home and it was just wonderful to have a slower pace for a while. I really did enjoy it. Today was back to reality and work though!! I finished this dresser up […]
DIY Plant Stand Makeover
I had this little plant stand around the house, and while we used it many places before it wasn’t in use anymore, so I decided to give it a makeover. When we first moved into our house, Bob had this plant stand and it was unfinished. I had the great idea to stain it, but […]
