MINI MAKEOVER.............FOR ME

Well I have been refinishing and making over so many pieces for resale at the shop and pieces for customers.   I came across something and thought, "this one is for me".


Here it is.....children's dresser found for FREE in my neighborhood.




Now anyone who knows me knows that I do not like blue at all....however I have been obsessed with Blue Montana Sky from CeCe Caldwell's Paints


\\
Here is my 1st idea to go blue then I wanted to go a little funky with my plan which was to be functional since this space was now missing the former big hutch


I was inspired by a painting of mine, terracotta pots and lemons.



Well here it is..........my new kitchen storage space.  Bottom drawers were left natural wood and intact to hold napkin rings, place mats and napkins.  The wood also matches the color of the kitchen cabinets.


Now the chair I just left there because it was too tattered for the shop and it was the same honey wood color.  I have had that painting for awhile and I love it because it reminds me of Italian countryside, which is the team of my kitchen.

I think Im happy with my blue obsession and my new piece.


For more info on CeCe Caldwell's Paints go HERE

The paints are also available at Lucky 7 Design Shop, I use this paint of all of my pieces by personal choice. I have tried them all and I feel that this is best for me and my concept of living a GREEN lifestyle and having an eco-friendly shop.
