Greetings, friends! It's been a busy several days with work and our Legacy Benefit Dinner and some fun time with friends, so I am dragging this week! It's been a while since I shared a furniture project, so I thought today was a good day to show you this end table makeover. A friend of mine {practically} gifted this pine end table to me several months ago. It took me a while to decide how I wanted to refresh it so it sat in my garage until … [Read more...]
Laundry Room Refresh: the Reveal
Hump Daaa--ayy! Hope your week has been going well, friends! I'm working my little tail off getting ready for our Legacy Benefit Dinner on Friday, but I couldn't wait any longer to share my newly refreshed laundry room. It's truly amazing how simple changes can make a big difference! Confession: this project took longer than we thought it would. My house is 30+ years old and so lots of little things revealed themselves when we dug into … [Read more...]
School Desk Makeover
Hello, friends... before I dive into a new furniture project here, I wanted to pause and send my heartfelt condolences to the Orlando community. We're living in a scary and crazy time where it seems evil lurks at every turn. I'm saddened by the way our leaders and presidential candidates have lurched into finger-pointing and political discussions in the wake of this. Praying diligently for clear heads to prevail and for unity in our approach … [Read more...]
Refreshing the Back Deck
We've been embracing our deck-sitting season as the weather has permitted and I'm so glad I refreshed it before graduation! I spent an entire day pressure washing... it was in dire need! And I'd hoped to get a fresh coat of stain/sealer down, but we haven't had enough days without rain yet to tackle that. Anyhoo, I decided to go ahead and plant my flowers, lay a new rug and add a bit of temporary seating for the time being. These … [Read more...]
Easy DIY Graduation Gift
It's that time of year -- that May Madness! We've been on a string of graduation parties and getting the house prepped for our own celebration later today and tomorrow. And now I'm in the throes of a TON of Legacy business (woo hoo!) so it's a nice juggling routine we've got working around here. I can't believe this guy is graduating! And along with that comes all those other graduation announcements... and before you know it … [Read more...]
The Booth for Spring!
Hi there, friends! I hope you enjoyed a great weekend - we had wonderful weather here, so I was on a spring cleaning binge. I was hoping to tackle my front porch but we're still getting lots of pollen here so it's not quite time. However, it's never too soon to plan so I'll be sharing some inspiration for my spring porch makeover later this week along with some upcoming furniture projects. But today I wanted to share my booth refresh that I … [Read more...]
Before and After: Dressing Table Makeover
Hello, friends ~ I didn't mean to be gone so long! The last couple of weeks have been doozies around here, so I've fallen behind on the old blog. But I've missed you and so I'm back. :) Today I'm sharing a recent paint project I completed and popped into my booth. Remember this little desk/dressing table I was working on a while ago? She was painted just a creamy white, but I decided to up her fun factor with some Farmhouse Paint in … [Read more...]
Help Me Decide! Furniture Stenciling Project
Hi friends! I hope you're enjoying a great week... we've got spring creeping in here and I spent most of last weekend knocking out my painting projects. Confession: that bed was a beast!! My back is still stiff from endless crouching and contorting my body to get those posts properly painted. It's amazing how much better it looks, though! Here's the before... I used Farmhouse Paint in Cotton White... it's a nice crisp white. Not too … [Read more...]
Project Sneak Peeks and a Note About Legacy
Good Thursday to you, friends! Popping back in today with a couple of painting projects I've been working on this week. The weather has been perfect to get a few things done so that's been my focus. But first, I wanted to share a note about Legacy with you. As I've been writing that story out, it's been very healing for me and helpful in terms of processing what happened. If you've been following along, you might already realize that … [Read more...]
