How To Know When Upholstery Should Be Painted
To paint or not to paint…that should be the question before painting our upholstered furniture. But sometimes we just dive into a project with our eyes wide shut.

Dressing Table Turn TV Console
This dressing table was a family hand-me-down that I was grateful to receive but couldn’t figure out how to use. It didn’t fit in my tiny “master” bedroom, and I don’t have a real office space… Turns out it was the only thing strong enough to hold up our TV, so a TV console it […]

Yep, I’m pinching my pennies as always…well I’ve only got nine other spaces I want to makeover! *chuckle* No worries, I’ve seen the […]

Dresser Rehab
A fantastic friend found this dresser on the side of the road and thought of me! Is it strange that I feel very honored and fortunate to have friends who would take the time and effort load a roadside freebie just for me? Oh wait, let me preface that by saying that those particular friends are […]
