It has been a good Monday! Why? Because I know I only have to work 4 days this week then I am off to Savannah for mine & the hubs anniversary trip! Can't wait!
I wanted to share some pictures with you guys. I mentioned in
this post that I was working on some furniture projects. We had a BIG dresser and 2 night stands to paint for our bedroom. I LOVE the rustic look that is ever so popular right now. It is ALL over Pinterest. I've got some other ideas swimming around in my head for furniture projects but this is what I have finished for now.

Sorry for the crappy iPhone pics. All I can say is it is a whole lot of work to DIY! Well more time consuming that anything. But it was worth it. I love these pieces of furniture. And it was WAYYYY cheaper than going out and buying new furniture. Especially the rustic style furniture. A lot of people are overpricing that stuff right now just because its popular.
Have you ever tried some DIY furniture projects from Pinterest? How did they turn out?
Hope you are having a wonderful Monday!
Oh my god Ashli I love them!!!!! You did an amazing job! I want my next house to be all refurnished furniture. It has such a better story to tell!
ReplyDeleteAw thanks so much!!! You can take any piece of furniture you have & do this! Its pretty easy!
DeleteThese are beautiful - love the teal colour you've used.. to me refurnished furniture will always be great statement pieces and like Hallie said they have such great stories behind them.
