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 […]
Christmas Candlelight Home Tour
This year was the perfect year for me to have a friend volunteer to open her home in the Marietta Christmas Candlelight Tour today. I say that because I’m not doing too much decorating in our state of transition. We will likely be moving into our new home some time around Christmas or New Year’s. […]
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 […]
Cherry Red Apple
I haven’t been spray painting as much this year…not sure why, maybe it is because of my current obsession with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint! But, I was on a spray paint kick around July 4th. Don’t ask me why/how I remember that, but I think it might be because of the bright red paint. I […]
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 […]
Two Tray Makeovers
I had these two trays and they both desperately needed a makeover. The white tray was an old yard sale find that I had previously spray painted white, but that was back when we had a wooden coffee table in the living room. With the new living room furniture the white tray didn’t really look pretty […]
Spraypaint Love #3
It’s been a while since I shared some Spraypaint Love! If you missed the previous posts – here are #1 and #2. It is now perfect spraypaint weather, so I’ve had my drop cloth set up in the backyard on several occasions lately. The first was not one that I set out to paint, but […]
Extra {Pretty} Easter Seating
We only had one folding chair in our house, and it looked like this: This chair was from before I bought a step ladder and would frequently use it to paint! Needless to say, when we have family over, it was not my go-to chair for extra seating. Somehow we have always had plenty of […]
DIY Magnetic Frame
Months ago I set out to make a DIY Magnetic Frame. I wanted to have somewhere to put the magnets we receive from friends and family when they travel. Bob and I collect magnets from our travels too, and we put them on the refrigerator. Since, I don’t want the fridge to be too cluttered, […]
