So my mom and I recently decided to go a little artsy and totally repaint all of our furniture. Now, need I mind you that our stash of plump, plush beauties is not exactly what Pottery Barn would consider a "complete set," but our freshly distressed coffee table, weathered and edgy TV stand, and gold rushtic bar stools are feelin the ego boost of a nice, fresh makeover. :)
Well, if the birdy hasn't gotten around to your window yet, my mom and I just made a big move from Arizona to California. In order to successfully do this, we got rid of all large pieces of furniture so everything could fit into our humble sedan. So in the process of getting settled, we have been reaccumulating cute and inexpensive pieces, knowing we could easily revamp them all into marvelous masterpieces to accentuate our lovely home! Anyways, as we acquire more, many of these pieces could end up getting shuffled around the house, but for now, our living room is much livelier with them included!
Take a quick look at our big painting project we have so eagerly awaited, but are so happy to say is complete:
