I know it's bold, I know it's different and I know it's not for everyone.  But, I love it...Absolutely and completely.  And, if it doesn't sale, I get to keep it!!



I found this paper and knew this piece would be getting to know this print very well.  I love the insets with the gold trimmed pieces. It's a "One of a Kind" for sure.



Here is what the buffet looked like before I started the makeover.

 I'll be sharing this before and after with Marion over at Miss Mustard Seed's Friday Furniture Features.

Vintage Red Buffet

This is a custom painted piece for The Lasley's.  They are currently building a new home and are hoping to add some color and charm to their new dining space.  This should do the trick.

 I am always searching for a way to add an artistic punch to my furniture pieces.  The peacock paper on the inside here adds an unexpected element and completes the "one of a kind" look I'm always after.

Hope everyone enjoys this little furniture makeover as much as I have!

Vintage Yellow Distressed French Dresser

Oh yes, friends! This color and I are getting 
to be close buddies...

I just finished painting this gorgeous dresser in a sunshine yellow. 
The new tomato red knobs really pop with this color! 


 I added pretty chevron paper to the center drawers;) 
 Love this piece staged with my new rug and my Picasso print I found at the flea market!
This dresser is for sale on my Etsy shop, 
The Turquoise Iris.  
And...here's the tired old before photo...

Teal and Cobalt Blue Distressed Dresser/Buffet

Go bold or go home, right?! 
This 9 drawer dresser screams, "look at me"! 
Sometimes it just feels good to add this kind of bold color to your home. 






I'm always inspired by buildings, doors and any pieces of architectural history. So for this, my mind went to the multi-colored buildings in Mexico. Plus, I am always looking to add teal or turquoise to any piece of furniture! I added legs to this piece to give it a bit more height and I love having it off the floor. All hardware is original and fabulous:)

This little wild thing is ready to purchase on my shop, The Turquoise Iris!

Just wanted to share a little of where my inspiration came from for this piece...
Tremendously beautiful color in this shot.

Have a fun weekend!

This beautiful combination on this dresser of glossy mint and white makes my heart smile. It is so refreshing, and the original brass pulls give it some sophistication. The look is clean and fresh and I L-O-V-E!





 I sort of hope this ends up in a sweet 
little nursery somewhere;)

As always, this dresser is available on my

Green Vintage Buffet for Baby Sutton

This gorgeous vintage piece is a special order I did for some friends.  They already owned it and just wanted to give it a new look for their nursery.  
I think they chose a stunning color!




Just a few short weeks and this will become a changing table...lucky baby Sutton! 
Big thanks to Tam and Darren for letting me share this moment in their lives.
