Ombre' Buffet Makeover in All of My Favorites

So, I forgot to things this week! Both of which, made me so mad:-/

First, I realized two days after my weekly grocery shopping trip that I left the 24 pack of bottled water in the bottom of the cart.  Yep, I guess I left it for someone else to use...grrrr!

Second, I forgot to take a before photo of this buffet. This is not the first time this has happened and will not be the last.  It better be the last time I forget about the water bottles, though! 

I was too excited to start painting this piece that I had it finished before I remembered.

These gorgeous knobs are Jadeite and gold and super gorgeous!

I love how this photo shows the colors fading so well. Three of the four are on walls in my own house!

Oklahoma suffered an ice storm 2 weeks ago and my brother in law grabbed me some fallen curly willow branches.  I love using them in photos and in our own home.

This piece is for sale on my Etsy shop, Here.

You guys have yourself a great week!  For now, I'm enjoying this 65 degree weather we are having this week! Woot!

Teal Primitive Cabinet - Before & After

I've decided...paint may be in my top 5 FAVORITE things!! It is right behind my family, my friends, the beach and chocolate desserts. Paint is magic!!

Well, what do you think? Would you recognize this piece after I painted it? To be honest, I myself, walked past it for months before purchasing it last week.  I hope you love the new painted look as much as I do! This is on my Etsy shop, The Turquoise Iris.

Happy Saturday!!

Art Deco Buffet in Mint and Turquoise

When I purchased this piece, there were red hibiscus flowers painted on the front doors.  Now, I love that beautiful tropical plant...just not on furniture.  I brought out several shades of blue and green for this one...( dreaming of the ocean )   

Take a look at my newest painted piece!

Hello gorgeous knobs...so glad to meet again!

I happily obliged!

Excellent suggestion...I love it even more now!

Teal Buffet / Dresser

Bold character and charm here, my friends;)

Inspired by Mexican buildings, 

I painted this dresser in a dark teal with a sunny yellow accent. I topped it off with heavy distressing and an espresso stain to add depth and old world charm. 
I kept the original brass hardware 

because the contrast of color is beautiful.

Not my normal refinishing style, but if it's teal...I'm gonna love it! This dresser was tired and boring but in exceptional condition.  So, in order to make it a statement in today's homes, I went bold! 

I would love to see this hanging out in your dining room as a buffet to store linens and Fiestaware dishes! Or, use anywhere really...even in a sweet baby nursery.

It could be yours:)
