My First Time to Use Heirloom Traditions Paint, Furniture Makeover in Navy and Coral

I was contacted by Paula with Heirloom Traditions Paint. She asked if I'd be interested in trying their paint. Well, sure!! I've heard wonderful things about the coverage and the line has so many beautiful colors, too. I chose 'Ol Navy from the Vintiques and Quite Coral from HTP. I also ordered the Oxidized Patina wax,  Burnt Umber Wax and the Ancient Agings Dust. 

Have a look at my result!

I couldn't decide which color to paint this desk so I just used everything, because why not, right?!?!

I brushed some of the patina wax over the hardware, also.

I started staging this piece and nothing I had as far as art worked so I paused...grabbed the brushes full of paint and made my own little floral abstract!  

This desk / vanity is listed for sale on my Etsy shop, The Turquoise Iris.

Thank you for viewing, hope you enjoy!

Turquoise French Bedroom Set

This bedroom set belonged to my client's grandmother. She wanted me to paint it for her 7 year old daughter's bedroom in their new home.  Miss Carsyn loves all things turquoise...think I got this one right;)

It is always such an honor when someone chooses me to paint furniture but even more so when it has been in the family for so many years.  Sweet Carsyn came over to me today with big squeezy hugs and said, "I love my furniture"!  

I love me job!!

Antique Dresser and Mirror in Cloud Gray

This is a custom ordered piece for Tricia, a friend of a friend.  She and her husband are expecting a new baby girl soon and this antique piece gets to be in the nursery on a blush pink wall. I think the colors are so very sweet...what a great choice!

I lined the three larger drawers with this heavy duty faux bois gray and white paper.Also, I added the two flower appliques to each side of the dresser, just for an itty bitty dose of sweetness.

All new hardware too!  I used the gray glass ones on the small top drawers and the larger creme floral on the others.

I hope the new parents will love it as much as I do!

Mint Vintage Dresser

Mint is such a hot color this season, I had to get into it with my paint, also! I am seeing it in fashion, home decor and jewelry. This piece would be a show stopper in any room but I would especially LOVE to see it in a nursery paired with navy and white. Or, better yet, it would be gorgeous in a master bedroom with tons of white textured linens!

This new piece is listed on my Etsy shop, The Turquoise Iris.

Petite Antique Chest / Dresser in the Perfect Golden Yellow

I painted this as a custom piece for the world's great mom...MINE! We found the piece while out shopping one day and we both fell in love with the cute little feet and those killer tear drop pulls.  There is also a gorgeous mirror I plan to finish this week.  She plans to set it in their new entry area. This color will brighten the day of all that pass through:)

Take a look!

My parents are in love with Mexico...the resorts...the colors...the buildings, all of it!

This is their way of bringing some of it all home.

Antique Dresser & Mirror In Exotic Red

This piece is a custom order for my friend, Janet.

It's been awhile since I have painted with red and it turned out to be a nice break from my usual color family of blue and green. This is a solid piece in mint vintage condition and I hope it makes my friend very happy!

Thank you so very much, Janet:)

Antique Dresser & Mirror in Sunshine Yellow

I had to almost get in a fist fight at Goodwill for this piece ( seriously, my heart was racing ) It was love at first sight, no one was going to buy it right from under me! 

It was soooo worth the fight, or "stare down" may be a better word. :)

Check it out now that I've painted it in this Sunshine yellow from Benjamin Moore!

Happy, happy, happy! :)

This dresser is up for sale on my Etsy shop,
