New in the Shop

I admit, I've been lazy lately.  Posting to my blog has been pushed aside.  After I paint, stage and photograph a piece I list it on Facebook, Instagram, Etsy and Craigslist.  After all that, posting on the blog sometimes doesn't make it.  But, I am back on board and I'm planning on sharing more in depth postings including more behind the scene shots and instructions (as asked from by so many) So please be patient with me.  

Here are some latest projects.  Hope you enjoy!

If you don't already follow me on Facebook and / or Instagram @theturquoiseiris, head over there and like me or love me but please don't laugh at me;-)

Happy Monday evening, Friends!

The Side-Kick to the Fabulous Green Bed

Hey guys! Here is the side kick to the green poster bed I painted last week.  This piece already belonged to my 3 year old client.  I gave it a fresh new look by adding new creme paint, green ceramic knobs and a few hand painted polka dots.  Pick up is scheduled for today! 

Happy Saturday!!

A Bunch of Green Goodness

I wanted to share this makeover I just finished.  This will now become a "big girl bed" for sweet 3 year old Ava. I sure hope she loves this half as much as I do!  Seriously, I would have died and gone to heaven if my 3 year old self was given a bed like this. 

Happy weekend, Everyone!!

Vintage, Drexel, and So Chic

I have had the opportunity to buy some vintage furniture pieces.  As much as I'd love to keep them, I'd love to sell them more...if you know what I mean;-) This Drexel set is a hard to find set.  The pieces are special in every way especially the campaign style, brass hardware and the design/pattern.  I have 3 other pieces still to photograph. Have a look...I couldn't wait to share. 

I had to share this fun peacock chair, too!  I am seeing them all over the decor world and I must say the prices are much higher than this one. 

Wow, right? All pieces are listed and for sale on my Etsy shop, The Turquoise Iris

Retro Dresser in Modern Blue & Silver

I painted this piece with a fun modern nursery in mind.  I love the retro look of it and the modern graphic paper in gray and white compliments it well. This piece is for sale on my Etsy shop, The Turquoise Iris.

Vintage Armoire in Tiffany Blue

I have a new piece available today and I am loving the colors.  I used these gorgeous knobs from Anthropologie for my color inspiration and mixed various paint colors to get two that compliment perfectly.

Looking forward to the days of "green grass". That brown dead stuff doesn't make for very pretty photos! Happy week, Everyone:-)

I love the warm silver finish and the knobs...well, 

I bought this piece because of the hardware!!

 I added this graphic paper to the 3 hidden drawers.

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

Next up...an emerald green Mid Century Dresser!

Happy weekend, Friends!!
