Shabby french hutch

This is the first big hutch that I've done and I love it.  I decided to use grey instead of white and leave some of the wood showing.  This was also my first wallpapering experience, its harder than it looks but it saved me from having to paint or stencil the hard to reach inside.  Its not a 70's style Brady Bunch hutch any more.

 I had to scrape all the gold striping off the windows
This is my inspiration
This is the finale!!!

Wood chair makeovers

Plain old wood chair redo's, they were nice to begin with but a little boring. a little paint and sanding can go a long way. O and a new stencil I found.

one of a kind end table

So I had to stop myself mid-masking tape to take a before picture of this cute little end table I got.  I was inspired by the anthroplogie color scheme of reds, greens and blues.  I really liked how it turned out and wanted to keep it but alas Im out of room.

anthropologie O how I love thee

Im feeling like I need a little inspiration today so I thought I would share my newest obsession.



These are ideas that I will have to try, I see old projectors everywhere.
I made my own and for way less than theirs cost!
