I'm in Love with Yellow! Just finished this Darling little dresser for a clients bedroom.
This blog follows the projects of a girl with little creativity, who is LUCKY to have Pinterest to pump her mind full of genius ideas.

First project with fabric paint...
With this chair I simply painted the frame with a coral Valspar paint and I wasn't in the mood to reupholster so I decided to try out some fabric paint. I used Tulip Fabric paint that I found at Michael's and it actually worked quite well. I was a bit hesitant because I thought it would make the fabric really crunchy... But it actually Didn't. It is still pretty flexible and soft. I wouldn't do a whole couch like this... But for a chair this worked quite well!
End Table Reno
I used the Vasoline technique... not sure if that is a real thing...? But after painting the end Table red I wiped along the edges (and anywhere else I wanted to see red later) with Vasoline. I just used a paper towel to do this. After painting the table the charcoal color I wiped away where the Vasoline was and BAM the red shows through! I then finished by adding a coat of polyurethane. I also used my red paint for my handles. Adds a nice pop off color.
Old Cabinet Doors Turned into Necklace Holder
I took the doors that I took off of the hutch and I turned them into Necklace Holders.
A little paint, and I drilled some holes and added some knobs for a fun simple project.

$5 creation
I found this lamp base and shade in the clearance section of Walmart. $2 base $3 lamp shade. I spray painted the base and BAM! Cute bargain lamp!
Pallet Decor
This Pallet I Sanded, painted White and then sanded the edges. I then screwed it into my wall, making sure to line up my screws with the wall studs because this is a heavy piece of decor.
*also note: if you are going to be using pallets to create decorations for your home you are going to want to make sure they are heat treated and not chemically treated. They will usually say on the side which one they are.

Love.
A cute little craft for the living room.
Just grab a cheap board, cut 3 equal pieces. Paint boards base color (I chise White) After boards dry, screw them together. Tape out your chevron pattern. Then paint your chevron pattern. After this dries paint word of your choice. I went with "Love."
Mirror, mirror...
With a little sand paper, tape and spray paint this old grungy antique mirror was turned into a bright, fun entry way mirror.
