Coral Mini Wardrobe with Teal Accents Furniture Makeover

I'm back!!!
I've been busy working on quite a few custom commissioned pieces.  
Now that those are done,  I've started a series of 5 new furniture makeovers.  


All of these are inspired by doors, old European doors.  You know the ones all over Pinterest...colorful, perfectly aged and full of authentic charm. 



I used four different colors on this mini wardrobe, all of which are complimentary. This style allows me to explore my creativity more than any other.  I think this is why love it so.


I cleaned out my paint cabinets and made some wall art! 



This photo's loaded with my DIY projects!



BEFORE 


The inside...I wanted it to really pop when the door opens.  This paper helped me decide on my color choices, thank you Spoonflower!



Stay tuned!  I'll have new makeovers posted soon. 



p.s. This piece sold after a few hours of being online so that's why I haven't posted my Etsy link.

Thanks so much,

Dionne

Other Tidbits from The Turquoise Iris

 I often post photos on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter and forget to post them here on my blog.  I flipped through a few on my phone and decided to share a few today.  

The picture to the right is me.  I didn't have anything to paint that day so I played with pictures instead!  

The shop where I sell my furniture now, Robinson's Eclectic Marketplace, asked me to submit a description of my business and work for them so this is what I put together. Since writing that, I've been thinking more and more about the direction I'd like to take my business.  I still have so many questions in the air!


The last three images are all pieces I've painted and wanted to give them a little more attention or highlight some of their details. I love seeing the texture and layers of paint up close but it's often hard to capture that through a camera.  

The coral cabinet and the metallic round table are currently available!

Enjoy your week!
