Master Bedrroom End Tables

I found these BEAUTIES at the Salvation Army. I paid 15.00 for the both of them.
I couldn't say no to that. I new I loved them from the moment I laid eyes on them.
Loving all the detail.
  
I love the shape of this one. Brandon loves the color green.
So I painted them to match our dresser.

 Crazy what a little paint can do, Always amazed.
Love how the stain makes everything POP.
A close up of all the details, details, details...
So I kept debating on what knobs to use. The originals or these pretty glass ones.
I kept going back and forth, forth and back.
GLASS???
or ORIGINAL!!!!!
Let me know what you like.
I think I know but would still like some input...

Gretchen Dresser

Gretchen wanted this dresser/changing table a different color.
She painted it this light green, but was looking for something more modern.
Gretchen chose Black. I love the knobs she added to it. Black and White checker.
It still amazes me what a different color can do to a piece of furniture.

Gretchens End Table

This is a custom ReDo for a friend.
Gretchen wanted something different with this end table, she wanted to bring in some color in the house.
It has such character.
 You can't really tell but there is a lot of pretty detail to this end table.
I love the claw feet on it.
After she is sanded you can definitely see the great detail on the legs.
Gretchen choose a lovely yellow to match this adorable little sofa she has in her house.

Here she is in her old home with a new look.
I love how the glazing brings out all the beaty in the legs.
I love this color. I have might be using this color in my back entryway.

Suitcase to End Table!

I copied this cute idea from a fellow blogger Angie. She made one about a year or so ago and I absolutley fell in LOVE. So I found this cute blue suitcase at the DI aka Deseret Industries and I instantly knew what I was going to do with it.
This suitcase was $4.00!  I bought four legs from Lowes and spray painted them white, distressed them, and stained them. Drilled holes through the bottom of the suitcase. I always forgot to take pictures of all the process because I just get to excited. Like a little kid in a candy shop!
But here is what she looks like all finished. I think it's funny that the suitcase in the pictures with no legs looks like a totally different color than with legs!! I will blame it on the lighting-yeah it's the lightings fault::)))
Thnaks to everyone share such lovely ideas on blogs, pinterest, facebook, etc. Then I can duplicate it and make it to share all over again!
Thanks for stopping by.

Free Tri Fold Table

My friend Jenny was going to take this to the DI and she knows that I like to make treasures out of trash::))
When she dropped it off I fell in love with it.
I loved how it folded down and how it was originally green and then it was painted white.
We have a end table that is green underneath and painted white over the top.
So I figured we will just distress the crap out of it.
So this is what we came up with.
and I am loving it.
I seriously love how it folds down to a small end table that can go behind a couch or in an entry way::))
Then it can fold out to a table for parties or get togethers.
I added the flower stencil to give it something extra.
The flowers are green to bring out the green in the distressing.
I am so loving this table.
I used two different greens to make the flowers.

This Table is SOLD

Door turned Bed::))


I bought this door over a year ago for $80.00. I absolutely fell in love with this door at first sight. 
I knew I wanted it to be a head board!  I had alot of ideas to make it a bed.
I conversed with my hubby and this is what we came up with.

We bought 6 X 6 posts to mount the door too.
We also bought crown molding to give it dimension and more depth.


The bed is 6 foot 4 inches tall.
I even wanted it taller but the hubbs wouldn't go for it


It turned out 1000 times better than I expected.
Love the hubs for building it for me.


I wanted the bed white to brighten up our room.
 I also needed something a little neutral because our dressers & night stands are green.


Molding


Molding::))


and more Molding::))


This is our bed with our bedding. I am in love with this bedding. I love all the colors in it.
Matches our dressers perfect. It's nice to not be sleeping on the floor anymore.


The bottom of the bed are drawers from a my water bed from when I was in high school.
Glad me mom hoarded them for so long they are perfect with the bed.
