Goodwill Find Turned Fab With Annie Sloan Chalk Paint

I found this interesting table at my local Goodwill and painted it with Annie Sloan chalk paint and it went from drab to fab! I now have a place to put my handbag, too!

    paint is different than normal paint in that you don't have to prime or sand the surface before applying. Here is a link to the Annie Sloan Chalk Paint site where you can find out all the ins and outs! It is wonderful for painting furniture! http://www.anniesloanunfolded.com/products/c...

Bookcase Transformation - Drab to Fab!

I wanted to turn this boring dresser into a show stopper! I think the chevron pattern accomplished that!

Old Dresser Rescue

I had to get this old dresser at a yard sale. I loved the character it had. The only problem...... it did not have a top. I wanted to come up with a creative way to add a top and yard sticks were the answer!

Any ideas on how to re-purpose the top part only of this hutch?

I just got a fantastic deal on this hutch for a $100.00. I bought it really for the bottom part only. I plan on using the bottom part in our family room as a TV stand. But now I have the ...»

    etc. What you think about taking the doors off, add shelving and hang over a couch in your family room and display family pics and collectables?

Farmhouse Buffet

This took me two days, but only because I use my dad's garage so I am not there all day to work on things when I want or need to. Used Miss Mustard Seed's Luckett's Green, and a touch of her Antiquing Wax. Topped it off with clear wax, buffed to shine, and added new hardware. With one drawer missing, I cleaned out the cubby, changed the board in it to something cleaner and added a basket. The cover over the drawer hole is a material dad had on hand, & even he doesn't know what it is! ...»

French Impressions Part II - the Bed Transformed

We have had our bedroom suite for years. It was time to make a change and I was inspired by photos found in a Betty Lou Phillips book. This is part two. I started with the dresser and then painted the bed.

  • The finished bookcase media wall.  I left the middle section open for a large flat screen t.v.  There's a hole in the countertop towards the wall for cords, and an electrical outlet accessible in the middle cabinet.
  • All trimmed, painted, and lights installed.
  • I used stock wall cabinets (12" deep) from Home Depot as lower cabinets, so I had to build a base for them.  I was reusing some cabinets from a previous media wall attempt that didn't turn out so great, which is why they're painted.
