My Newest Mid Century Drab to Fab Makeover

I'm thrilled to finally use this paper I purchased from The Social Club in Norman, OK.  A friend told me they sold sheets of really great paper by Ferme a Papier. I love the graphic design and colors and paired with the bold white upon wood contrast, a "one of a kind" look is created.

BEFORE

I have this listed on my Etsy shop, The Turquoise Iris for $450.

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!

)()( Mid Century Modern Vanity / Desk in Magenta and White

How about this Mid Century piece? Isn't is so chic?  I love the white dipped legs and the new Anthropologie cracked glass knobs. I also added black and white dragonfly paper to all the drawers. Some one needs this in their modern living space, know anyone?

And the horrid "before" photo...

I haven't been brave enough to tackle that stool yet:)

This piece is available to purchase on my Etsy shop, The Turquoise Iris.

Call It What You May...

Vermilion, Persimmon, Salsa Red, etc.

This color is hot hot hot for this 

Fall season!

I had to have me a taste of it!

Here is the table I started with below.

Sorry for the bad phone pic:)

We've seen this great mahogany style table many
times over the years,
but I have yet to see one like this now!

I can see this coffee table paired with a clean lined modern sofa plus two chairs covered in an 
ikat or suzani printed fabric.

I l-o-v-e! ;)

This table is available to purchase
