My neighbor wanted a desk for her daughters room. She asked me if I could find a desk and chair. She wanted the desk white, because her husband had recently repainted her room in hot pink and green.
I found the fabric at JoAnnes, it went so wonderfully with the colors in her room. I love this chair all the details on the legs.
The desk was so fun to make. The back is an old window pain, with a mirror, dry erase board, magnet board, and two cork boards covered in fabric with ribbon.

Broyhill Dresser
Okay, so I am in the process of finding furniture to ReDo our(Ashley and Beanz) Master Bedroom. So after work on Monday I stopped at!!!!Can anyone guess-HHHMMM? Of course the Salvation Army and what did I stumble upon the COOLest Broyhill dresser that has amazing details and indtricate carvings. I was SO SO SO EXCITED. Couldn't contain myself-But lets go back 4 hours earlier. I'm ready to leave for work, and I beat NO one else does this but me!! I CANNOT find my purse-looked on the chair by the back door, the front seat of my car, the trunk of my car, my bedroom, and the floor by my bookcase-NOPE nowhere to be found. I call up my mom and ask her if I left it on the kitchen chair-YEP. So back to Salvation Army I HAVE NO MONEY to pay for this dresser. I BEG and BEG to have them hold it and I will come and pic it up on Tuesday. So I brought the Baby home today. All I can say is they DO NOT make dresser like they used to. It is the heavest Baby in the world. I forgot my camera-so I will take pics and everyone can see the before of the Broyhill dresser. I am so Excited to ReDo the Master Bedroom. YEAH YEAH YEAH!!!..))

Getting to hang with them for the day, exchanging stories of what DEALS that we have found and what products we like. Laughing about how much are husbands LOVE that we do this!!! Thanks to all you great ladies that make me smile.
Roller Chair-SOLD
So I spray painted the chair green and it was a little plain. So I hand painted this design on it. I saw a post on tatertotsandjello.blogspot.com and I fell in love with the design.

Orange Rocking Chair-SOLD
Jenny found this rocking chair at the Salvation Army. It was a bare rocking chair, it had no bum cushion, just springs. We had this fabric left over from another project. The pillow was from DI. Jenny made a new bum cushion and made a new pillow for the back cushion. It is the most comfurtable rocking chair, ever.

Claret Wine High Back Chair & Bookcase
About a year ago on Studio 5 Heather from Heartland Paper showed a high back chair that she had spray painted and put Baby scrapbook paper on the high backs. It was very Cute. So when Jenny brought this home from Salvation Army, I new what we could do with it.
The bookcase was kinda plain spray painted just black. So I added scrapbook paper to the back of the bookcase. I used the same black and white themed scrapbook paper on the high back chair. Here is a close up of the scrapbook papers I used. I Love black and white together with a pop of color. I spray painted a my kitchen stool this same color and fell in love with it.
I used Rust-Oleum Claret Wine on the high back chair and Canyon Black on the bookcase.
This Claret Wine High Back chair is SOLD
THe Canyon Bookcase is SOLD
Summer Squash Chair and Stool-SOLD
I Love the color scheme of this chair and stool.
The pillow is another FAVORITE, black and white polka dot with yellow trim.
The pillow makes the chair stand out. Jenny used the left over fabric from the stool to make the cute flower. She was upset because I made her make the flower bigger. But my motto is the bigger the better.
The flower on the pillow compliments the the fabric on the stool.
This is a close up of the fabric that always starts out the project and helps me decide what colors I will use on the project. Last year I made a similar chair with this fabric and used the same color spray paint. It was one of the first chairs I sold. So I had this fabric left over. Which inspired me do use it on this stool and the pillow.

Chair-N-Side Table Thing a BOB!-SOLD
So I am posting all this furniture that is for sale. I ask my husband what would this be called and his comment was, UGLY!! SO RUDE!! Husbands just don't understand going to the DI and SA to find cool old furniture to ReDo and Sale or sometimes even keep. Back to the Chair-N-Side Table Thing a Bob. I don't know its official name, so this is what I named it.
This picture shows the true color of the chair. The inspiration for this color was of course from the fabric.
I Love how this chair and how it turned out.
This is what the fabric looks like.
I used Valspar Flat Cool Jade Spray paint on the Chair-N-Side Table and the Magazine Rack I used Rust-Oleum Espresso Spray Paint. These items are for Sale if interested contact Ashley at bnaclaw@msn.com
