Bringing the Beach Home in Mint Green

They say if you can't get to the beach, why not bring it home to you.  Yes, I'm craving vacation and this year it's Florida! I found this paper a while ago and knew I needed a serpentine dresser to apply it to.  Pairing it with the colors in the sky makes this antique dresser the perfect piece for any home.  Mint is easy to coordinate and will add a warm feel to any space.

The new glass hardware has a copper tint to it.  This really pulls outs the sand color in the picture. I love how they pull the whole look together!

I hope you all enjoy this makeover!  I'm not quite done with the "beach theme".  You can expect to see a similar piece soon.

Rustic Charm in Blues

This old dresser has been in the same family for 40 years...made by my friend's grandfather...with love. I painted it this week and enjoyed every single minute of it! Hoping the family can enjoy it another 40 years. I decided to use nature as my back drop this time and again, my inspiration for the finish comes from the glorious pages of Anthrpologie's catalog:)

And the "before"...

Happy Weekend, Friends!
As usual, I'm linking up to Miss Mustard Seed's

Coral French Provincial Dresser & Mirror

I realize I painted this, but I'm still swooning over the combination of the dresser and color. Together they are so striking, right? This is a custom piece I painted for little Miss Marley.  She will not arrive for a few more weeks, but once she does, her nursery will be perfect for her! I am definitely excited to see the completely decorated room!

Thanks for all of your continued support!  

I hope you have a warm sunny weekend.
