Navy Blue Hutch with Decoupage Drawers

I'm convinced paint as magical powers.  Look how simply it transforms the ordinary and brings new life to a discarded "garage sale find".

It's hard to see from this photo, but I added a white wash finish to the interior of the cabinet.

The drawers are covered in paper.  I custom mixed these two paint colors to coordinate and I love how the image pulls the whole look together. 

Before & After

Happy Fri- Yay!

The Royal Blue Peacock Buffet

I present to you, Her Royal Peacock.  

This piece turned out very dramatic.  The blue, with the gold, combined with the peacock makes for quite an appearance! 

I think she is just. so. lovely.

This is a poster applied to the doors, not paint.  I sold this piece before I could even post this but I still wanted to share it.  

Have a wonderful weekend!

Vintage Buffet in China Blue and Creme

I painted this vintage buffet as a custom order piece in Benjamin Moore's, China Blue. I think it will compliment her black table and chairs beautifully.  I'm ready for her to have a look!!

The creme detail really highlights the charm of this piece of furniture.

Black and creme porcelain knobs replaced the old rinky-dink ones that were there originally.

Well, I love this even more than I expected! Hope you all have a happy summer weekend!

Mid Century Modern Dresser, Color Blocked and Cool

MCM style dressers are super hard to come by these days! So, when I come across one, I jump at the chance to either paint or re-finish it. I chose to paint this one a gorgeous shade of blue and added the silver for a fun, mod, color block look. Oh my goodness...this one will be hard to let go of...I LOVE it! 

I don't have a particular style or furniture design that I love the most.  I tend to fall for pieces that are just pretty...I like pretty.  That's why my home is such an eclectic  mix of old and new, shiny and dull.  I just like pretty:)

 ***BEFORE PHOTO***

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!! The sun has just shown it's cheery face, so I'm headed out!

Teal & Yellow Vintage Dresser / Buffet

I just finished this piece for my parents.  

The are moving tomorrow and plan to use this in their breakfast area.  It will compliment that round oak dining table that once belonged to my great grandmother.

I absolutely love the finished product and hope my parents enjoy it for many years to come!

Here's to a warm and delightful, new gorgeous home!

Cheers:)
