I was so sick of my orange dinning room. I wanted something classic but also modern and clean design. The top of the wall will needs to be finished.Debating on grasscloth wallpaper or paint-which would be much cheaper.

  • After brush painting didn't work, I spray painted embroidery hoops that I bought for less than a dollar each.
  • After the paint dried, I constructed the spheres by loosening the bolts and assembling them.
  • They are just like the ones I have seen in high-end stores and catalogs.  This is also a kid-friendly craft.

Learn to Make Attractive and Trend-setting Spheres

Decorative spheres or orbs are quite a decorating trend right now. Rather than overpaying for them, we decided they would be easy to make with some embroidery hoops and spray paint. This ...»

Painting electric heaters

I just bought a small cottage. The electric heaters along the base boards are a little dates and slightly rusty. Can I paint them? Will the heat affect the paint?

  • The paint color of the chevrons were beige.  I hand painted the chevron but I'm sure you could buy or make a stencil.
  • The table started out as a $30.00 walnut table from Walmart.  I primed and painted it white with paint I already owned.
  • I love how fun the table turned out!

Chevron Table

The chevron doesn't seem to be going away anytime soon. This table was done way over a year ago and still is one of my most popular projects
