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.
