Striped Sideboard

Hope your all as excited for spring as I am! I think we finally have moved on from winter here in NC! 

I've had a customer waiting list for painted furniture for a while now, and had to wait for warmer temps to get started.

My first one of 2014 was fun....two tone stripe sideboard in black & creme! 

Here is the before..,

In process....taped off for the stripes.

She just wanted stripes in the front...not on the top or sides...
After....

I love how it turned out.  We distressed some slightly...kept the original hardware & placed poly acrylic all over with a satin finish!
What a great accent piece for her breakfast nook.

Time for some pickin' & painting!

Painting Wood Bowls & Vases

I picked up some wood bowls & vases while thrifting this past summer....I knew they could be beautiful artist pieces!
The before & afters are amazing....unfortunately I can't find few before photos!
Before......
To after....
Before vases....
These were actually beautiful pieces as is, but I will say the paint really transformed them....
A few more after pieces I painted....

I just love how they all turned out! Little did I know these would be popping up at places like Pottery Barn & Ballard Designs!
Love being creative!
