Emerald Green Corner Shelf

I have walked passed this type of corner shelf so many times but this one stopped me! I LOVE the details on this one. All it needed was a makeover, taking from granny's corner shelf to a modern gorgeous accent piece. 

"BEFORE"

I applied the paint in a glossy finish, added the amazing Anthropologie knob to the drawer and applied the green and white ikat paper to the backs. I used a spary adhesive first and topped the paper with a coat of polyacrylic to seal. I think the result is so very pretty.

I added just a touch of gold paint to the beaded trim.  Do you like?

Enjoy your evening!

My Week in Makeovers

At some point, I may get tired of this color. Whether you call it emerald or jade or kelly, I LOVE it!! It especially glows when paired with another jewel tone. 

This piece is for sale today on my Etsy shop, The Turquoise Iris.  

I see this vintage cabinet in an entryway, foyer or hall but the size will allow it to hangout in any room of your home. 

 Secondly, I painted this antique desk for a friend.  She has three daughters that will use this as a computer desk.  It is old but solid and I wanted to glam it up a bit for these stylish teens.

Mint Green Distressed Dresser

I simply cannot get enough of this mint color! It is so warm yet bold as well.

This is paper, not paint...although maybe some day I will have the skill to paint something like this!

Have a beautiful day!!

Green, Gold and Glossy Vintage Media Cabinet

I was so excited to find this vintage piece last week!  

It will make the perfect media cabinet for 

someone who loves color and may not exactly 

love having a television in the bedroom;)

This is a great modern way to dress up the 

television that we 

all have to have:)...emerald green glossy paint with new clear glass cabinet door pulls! 

Beautiful gold accent frames the entire cabinet. 

What a statement piece, right?

This is for sale here on my Etsy shop, The Turquoise Iris.

temporarily, of course.

Just finished this emerald green dresser!

I've gotta thing right now for this shade.

I think this dresser is stunning and would make a sophisticated statement in any room of your home. The color is bold and will compliment many other colors. Use in your living room as a media cabinet, a buffet in your dining room or make it pop in your bedroom!

This vintage dresser has 3 large drawers and 6 small ones. The sides of the drawers have been painted pink ....because...well...why not? :)

This dresser is for sale now here on Etsy.com

Have a delightful colorful weekend!

So many options for this one. I would love to see it in a modern home, maybe in a dining room holding all your serving ware or house your tv components in your living space. And...how pretty would this be in a baby's nursery?
