When major makeovers aren’t in the budget, a can of paint and a few inexpensive accessories can make all the difference!

Moody Dining Room Makeover
Whew, what a difficult One Room Challenge! Not because this was a tough room to decorate, or because it required a big remodel, nope…rather because in all 6 (actually 7) weeks we had to get it done, the items I ordered didn’t arrive until a week or so ago.

Oh you thought I was referring to the mismatched furniture in my dining room I’ve been promising to show you? Haha! Every […]
The Great Armchair Chalk-Over
Do you remember the last time I painted upholstery in my home? It was magical I tell you! I took a couple of worn mid-century modern chairs and gave them a much needed refresh using Chalk Paint® decorative paint. Well, I’m excited to join up with Annie Sloan Unfolded for their #MadeItMyOwn campaign! This time I’m taking an army of mismatched […]
