Dreamingincolor on TV

This has been one exciting week. For the first time, Dreamingincolor had a spot on TV! Talk of the Town to be exact. Yes, I just said that! This goes down as one of the cool things I have done as a blogger and store owner. Talk of the Town is a local show that does news, weather, and great demos on great topics. 

It was great meeting everyone that worked on the set. Lelan Statom is the weatherman. I know Lelan from way back when I taught Forensics (Speech and Debate). He was a judge for one of the other schools. His daughter used to compete. He was always kind and had the best personality. It was so good to see him again after all these years.

Meryll Rose is the host. She was the person I had most of my time with. She is sweet and gracious. What I noticed most was how comfortable she was with everyone and how she made us feel the same way. It's no wonder it is the top show both local and syndicated.

I got 4 minutes of time to show my Dorm Decor. It went by sooo fast!!

I was so excited to be able to use my signature color "Dreamingincolor" on the program. I demonstrated how to paint a chevron pattern, just like my post for Old Time Pottery.

Dorm Decor

It is almost time for back to school and it is time to start thinking of dorm decor. Something that shows your personality. Let's face it, there are so many things to purchase. Anytime you can find a bargain, you need to snatch it up! That's were Old Time Pottery comes in. I shopped their Bargain Blast Sale and came up with a few ideas to help you decorate your dorm room. I added a little chevron, color, and pizzazz to a otherwise dull look.

Head on over to Old Time Pottery Blog and get details of the savings and learn how to do this yourself!

Traveling Jewelry Box

This has been a busy summer and I am loving every minute! I cannot believe that very soon I will be traveling to Italy!!! I guess that is what was going through my mind when I created this project.

Refurbishing jewelry boxes is not a new thing to me. I just made and sold this small one that was a pretty pink!

After seeing my painted patina french nightstands featured on the ASUnfolded page, I was asked to teach a class for a store in Brentwood, Tennessee for 9-14 year olds using Chalk Paint® decorative paint by Annie Sloan.  I will tell you more about that in a few weeks.

Jewelry boxes came to mind when thinking of a different piece to paint. But I added Cool and Funky to it!
