Rustic Modern Vintage Dresser

Ok friends! I just finished this heirloom dresser for the Votaw family. They will have a new addition to their family in January. The nursery is a rustic modern Navajo vibe. One wall of the room has the coolest wallpaper with rows of large arrows. ***We need your help though for pull ideas. The clients are trying out their DIY skills with some leather strap ones, but would LOVE to get any feedback with your ideas!! Enjoy!!

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!!

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!!

White & Blue Desk

I painted this desk for a sweet little girl's 10th birthday. Her parents wanted her to have a good place for her to do her homework. I hope this passes the test;)

Happy Sunday, friends!

Mint Green French Provincial Dresser

This piece was selected and painted for the Ratcliff's. It's for their little girl's room and will be combined with turquoise and raspberry. Seems I've been doing a lot of little girl dressers lately. Anyone else notice that? Hmmm... 

 Anyway, I always love this shade of mint green.  It's warm and happy and still very fresh looking.  Paired with this style, it's a statement piece for sure!

And, not to be forgotten this time;)Here's the before photo...

Turquoise Dresser with Houndstooth Drawers

I custom painted this piece for a special couple in Maryland. They are expecting their sweet baby girl in December!! I love their color choices with the houndstooth patten and my goodness...the yellow pop just screams happy. Jennifer, thank you for allowing me to paint this for your nursery:)

Here is what it looked like "before" the make over!  This is by far the "best looking before" I have ever painted:)

Have a beautiful weekend, my friends!

Oh, This Enormous Solid Wood Desk!

This was a beast of a desk, friends.  My sweet friend, Gina, found it a garage sale and asked me to paint it white for her.  She bought a new home and has gone back to school.  This piece gives her a perfect place to spread out and get some work done. I love the finished look!

I called her after I started painting it and asked if I could add a little "Dionne" to it:)  I could not resist painting those little feet a soft shade of turquoise and I added the knobs from Anthropologie. She was happy to let me as long as I didn't get too crazy!

She loves her new desk, too!  This piece will be around for another 60 years for sure.

Have a happy week, Everyone!

Herringbone Crush

 Friends, if you haven't seen the Serena and Lily catalog, you must order one! They have beautiful home accessories and inspiring photography on their pages.  I chose this herringbone pattern after thumbing through the pages. I love textures and the patterns especially on bath towels and rugs. So, I had to give this a shot, my way off creating a fun modern look for this vintage Bassett Mid Century dresser. 

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