  • I stained all the slats and set them aside so I wouldn't get black paint on them. I then painted the outside and inside Black and distressed the edges.Then with my nail gun and some glue attached the slats 6
  • As You can see I already started to sand the Blue paint off the top 6
  • And I had already removed the drawers... I will probably use them for something else...
  • I then removed the back of the dresser because I wanted to give it that open look, and then removed the drawer runners and replaced them with a  new bracket in the front and back centered for where the new shelf was going to be.
  • The decorative piece in front was from a piece of scrap board that I drew out the pattern and Cut it out with my jig saw.The Slats for the shelves are made out of a scrap 2x6 that I ripped on my table saw to 2"w x 1/2" Thick 1
  • I then thought I needed some storage bins to fit on the shelf so I had this drawer with this neat looking design on front that I thought would be great cut in half to make 2 bins
  • This is how they turned out.
  • Then I added some neat nickle plated handles to the bin and there you have it No more blue dresser instead a brand new TV Stand...and I did it all by myself..:) 7

  • My daughter used this desk as a teen, but it had been stored in the basement for years until I dissected it.
  • I built up the top, and added some crown molding.
  • Stacked one side onto the other side to make it tall, then added a new MDF bottom and feet.
  • After spraying it with primer and black paint, I felt it needed a little something special, so I stenciled a flowering vine all the way up the front of the drawers. 3
  • I added some glass knobs to finish it off. Because this piece has two deep drawers that were formally file drawers, and 4 smaller drawers, it is very versatile.
I currently have it in the bedroom, storing boots, and business stuff.  LOVE how versatile it is, and it's much smaller footprint.  Same storage, less floor space.  Win/win!
you can see the full tutorial on my blog. http://bit.ly/JFKWMa 5

Felt flower valentine wreath

Wrap the heart foam with felt fabric... Then cut 5 inch felt squares, I did 4 at a time in order speed up the process. Draw a haphazard swirl on the square and cut it out the swirl. Take ...»
the end section (not the curly cue on top) and start rolling When you get to the end, put some glue on the bottom and place that curly cue on the bottom of the flower and repeat this to make at least 25 flowers. At this point, I put on a movie and just started rolling! This part gets a bit mundane, but it will be beautiful at the end. I put three rows of roses to make it look nice and full. Have fun!

TAKE A WALK ON THE WOODEN SIDE: DECORATE WITH FAUX BOIS

Faux bois (meaning "false wood" in French) is a design element you've probably seen before but never spent a ton of time thinking about. It was all the rage in the early 1900s, and now ...»
it's making a comeback as a way to use the outdoors as home décor inspiration. Here are four of our favorite ways to incorporate the warm and woodsy look of faux bois into your home:

Go beyond earth tones. In nature, tree bark is usually brown or white, but that doesn't mean you have to restrict yourself to these same colors inside of your home! Go purple, go red, go yellow – whatever color palette matches your personal style is fair game!
