Sofa Table Transformation



I couldn't bear to show the before picture first, it was U-G-L-Y!

But that was going to change very quickly....




This was a Craigslist find, not at all what I was picturing... 
(even though I saw a picture lol)

I was a little disappointed when it arrived, nevertheless 
this sofa table was going to shine when I was done with it!





To me, this table makes no sense. It looks like someone 
took spare parts and created a table out of them!





I primed the whole thing, including the hardware, 
then painted it a beige with green undertones.




It's better... but then I dry brushed white over the beige, it's getting there.







The distressing is really going to make all the difference...




Can you see how the green comes through after it was distressed?




I am completely happy with it! It no longer 
looks like it was put together with spare parts!





Time to decorate!!!

I love these leaded glass doors, 
I think they make the perfect pairing!






A couple of glass bottles with 
faux pearl necklaces around their necks...






A pretty floral....




This didn't last but two days in the shop! 
The leaded glass windows sold too!

That's not all that sold...  it was a good day!

Super quick and super shabby!

We got this cute Art Deco vanity in and all it needed was some shabby love!


Here is Miss Venessa before her makeover...


I had this soft pink oops paint that I painted a quick coat over the white, 
not caring if it was completely covered.


This project only took about an hour to an hour and a half to complete!


Now for some shabby love!


This vanity already had glass knobs, so they didn't need to be replaced.


Isn't Vanessa SHABBY-LICIOUS!

Baby Blue Dresser Turned Changing Table!

This dresser was recently purchased by Rustique... The Rehab Boutique

I quickly got started on this new rehab! 

I love the detail on the top drawer and the decorative piece on the back!


First, a coat of primer (Zinsser Bin), it helps 
the paint stick to all surfaces, even glossy ones!

I left the hardware on too!


Two coats of this pretty blue, all over...


All distressed... I added gold Rub 'n' Buff to some of the details. 

I would have taken some close-up pics, but it sold in no time!


The couple that purchase this dresser has a new 
baby boy on the way and this will be used for their changing table!

Thanks for lookin'!

Frenchy Armoire, Ooh La La!!

I love the way this piece came out!


Here she is in her "before" state... yes, I took before pics this time!!


She has lots of potential, but looking pretty plain right now!


She's all primed, getting a white paint job with some light gray dry brushing!



I need to do something to "jazz" her up, 
so I looked through some stencils, I liked the center of this one, 
so I taped it off to get only the area I wanted.


I love it and the chartreuse-y green is so yummy!


I forgot my camera the day I finished her, 
so there are some steps along the way that won't be seen.


There was this oval detail that couldn't really be seen, 
so I decided to distress around it to give this plain armoire some more pizazz.


The dry brushing really adds to it and gives the piece more depth.


I love the drawers inside..


This little chair is a perfect match to the armoire!
