Distressed Union Jack Side Table

Thursday 28 June 2012

I know, I'm about the last person in DIY blogland that has yet to produce a Union Jack piece. But this week we've been watching the Olympic Trials for swimming, and I've become inspired!

This is a table Shayne gave me to paint. I was nervous...see my mind doesn't work very well when it comes to spacial relations....so taping this was difficult for me.

$50 Giveaway from Cutting Edge Stencils!!!

Tuesday 26 June 2012

I am so excited for today's Giveaway from Cutting Edge Stencils! One lucky winner will receive their choice of any one reusable wall stencil, up to a $50 value!

If you follow decor/DIY blogs, you know by now that a fresh coat of paint is one of the easiest and most affordable ways to update a room. Wallpaper has also made a big comeback, but it can be pricey and very very time-consuming to to apply....and I don't trust myself with wallpaper. The best way to bring together a freshly painted room and add that "WOW" factor is stencils!

Here are just a few of the many choices that Cutting Edge Stencils has to offer!

Sweet Little Cabinet in Gray

Sunday 24 June 2012

This is a quick before and after. I had my 15 year college reunion this weekend and had SUCH an amazing time. I went to a small, women's college in central Minnesota. I loved every minute of my time there and hadn't been back for over 12 years. I had such a blast with my friends!!

Here is the before picture of this cabinet that Shayne brought me. It had major veneer issues, but my father-in-law fixed it, of course!

Here she is now...a medium gray with dark glaze and distressing. Such a unique piece with the doors!
