Love this sofa. Hubby would never allow it but a girl can dream right lol;)
I also love the glossy black with silver trim, knobs and top this is another option I am considering, My room is gray with a gray, white and silverish blue faux finished wall but I have a lot of animal print and purple with burgundy bedding and pillows. So hard to decide wish I had like 3 bedrooms lol, may have to sell all our bedroom sets and redo every room. Hubby would kill me.
This matches my night stand I found for an amazing deal at Home Goods with the embossed metal but mine has mirrored top, sides and drawer fronts. I can't find dressers like this anywhere locally and all the ones online are super expensive and shipping is outrageous. That is what led to me getting into the vintage french provincial dressers I was looking for an option for something silver and black I could refinish myself and came across the top dresser at mychampagnetaste so now I am dreaming about the stuff lol
Love this over the top fancy chair, no where to put it but LOVE IT!
Wish I found this beauty before they sold it this was listed on Etsy.com
I love this hot pink desk. Wish I didn't have a desk for me or Paige, I could always sell the ones we have! lol.
I even loves these in white just picturing glossy white with silver knobs and top and maybe silver trim on the drawers and detail areas. Gorgeous.
This is another lady I discovered on Etsy, she is so talented even considering ordering one from her this one would look gorgeous since my headboard and chair have the nail head border and the black and silver is gorgeous!
I have a stencil with the chandelier, got it to reproduce a canvas painting I saw for 100 for Paityn's room and decided I could make it for under 20 myself bought the 3 canvas pieces and all the paints just haven't started it, get so busy baking and doing parties/event's never have time for my own projects, my office, master bedroom, kid's room and moroccan patio are all started but not complete. One day lol and then I will post photos for everyone to see. I have a bunch of before and during shots just got to finish to get the after shots for show.
So gorgeous and glam!
I have found a new passion and I am so excited to have a few extra dollars to start investing in pieces. I first plan to do a set for my bedroom since I am still trying to finish that project, then I would love to do some pieces for my entry way, home office/craft studio then eventually once I get the hang of it, I plan to start doing it as a little business. Buying the vintage pieces and customizing them for clients. I love DIY projects and painting is one of my favorites. I can't wait to get started. I have been searching the web for blog sites of people who do just that. I have found some amazing talented ladies on Etsy.com and some other blog sites. They have inspired me so much that I have been up late two nights in a row looking at photos, reading how to's and watching how to videos. I scored yesterday I always look on craigslist for furniture and free items daily when I have time and scored twenty cans of barely used paint, stains and protective top coats. I also got some cans of spray paint and primer for free. The colors are all different from greens, blues, yellows, tans, and even some funky colors, got to love free. I plan to use these for some different projects I have planned. I have a couple of pieces here around the house like shelves, cabinets and a rolling wooden cart I want to refinish, then a small table that I use to use as a bed side table when we only had one night stand, it was my grandmother's and is a vintage phone stand. It is wood now but since the new home office/craft room/guest room has a lot of white stuff in it I want to redo it white with a silver top. Then I have 2 wall shelves that are white and 2 large green ones that will be painted white, and now that we have redone our room everything use to be gold, brown and bronze well now that the room is gray with silver I want to redo the frames, I have some that are black that I will leave but there are several that are brown with gold trim that I plain to prime and then paint black and use silver trim. I have some amazing stencils by Martha Stewart that one day while I was out with my little one I stumbled across in the clearance section and got as many as I could find, thinking I will put these to use one day! Well I have seen some amazing wall murals with stencils, wall art, paintings and trim on some of the furniture so I plan to use these very soon. With summer coming I am hoping that Paige will get involved too since she is crafty and loves to paint so that we can have a mother daughter bonding experience and paint the stuff together. I may even break down and sell her bedroom set so I can customize a gorgeous set for her. Same with my little one, I got her a steal on one of those vintage mirrored looking night stands at Tuesday morning for 69 was originally 380 then 249 then 140 and then 69. It looks stunning but she has her old huge hutch style dresser I got before she was born and it may need to be painted and mirrored or silver leaf project to make it glam. I have so many ideas and projects don't want to overwhelm y'all with them lol. Going to post some photos I clipped from the web and started a folder for inspiration just to show you what I love and what I am talking about with my new hobby. Enjoy the photos and if you are out garage sale shopping or come across any pieces like these please text or call me and lmk or grab them for me I am going to be picking up as many as I can find that are a good deal price wise. Thank you and I will be posting some tips for painting these dressers, staining, and so much more shortly. If you are also looking to do some projects like this join pinterest.com they have lots of great photos and how to's on there. Love that site.
