I've been painting furniture for couple of years now, and there are some things that I've picked up through my experience that I'd like to share with you. There is a lot of furniture available to paint. Beautiful pieces. I have decided that there are also some to just walk away from. Since secondhand furniture is so plentiful, and you can get pieces for such a low cost (at least where I live), I have decided that some pieces are just not worth the time to restore. There are four things that…

What can I say, but I tend to paint pieces in my home more than once. When a new look is in the works for a room and I don't want to buy something new I just whip out my paints and supplies and change what I have. The armoire in one of the guest rooms is no longer red since this room has been made over to suit my new calmer and lighter style. Now it's a beautiful blue gray or a pretty French blue. Blue is actually my favorite color so it makes since that I am adding more of it in my home…

fabulous folk art. I LOVE the color of the buffet!

Hej på er! Hoppas ni har det bra såhär i juletider? Julen är ju den dyraste tiden på året, då det ska köpas julklappar till höger och vänster.

A vintage buffet gets a makeover with some Bondo, gel stain and milk paint from General Finishes. Once tired this, classic piece is ready to shine again!

Our bedroom has been the one room in the house that I have struggled to get just right. I have decorated and redecorated this room at least six times over the last six years, and I have all the blog posts and (bad) pictures to prove it. Instead of continuing to try and work with what I have, I finally moved our bed frame into the guest bedroom and slowly started over. If it's just not working for you even after you have changed it up six different times, it's time to let it go! I pledged to…
