Painted Hutches

Painted hutches come in all styles and colors. The more creative you can get with paint and finishes the better. 

I like to add details. I replace glass sometimes with chicken wire, paint existing hardware, add fabric or paint images on the back. Doing this can take a boring outdated piece of furniture and bring it into a new more fashionable look.

I recently created another one for the store by doing some of the above.

I wanted to show you some of the ones I have done in the past and what I did to achieve the look. Click on the highlighted title below pictures to see how it was done.

This one I had a lot of work to do but it was so worth it!

Lady Baltimore Fall Arrangement

Halloween is fast approaching and they are calling for rain!

Poor little trick or treaters!

I was hoping to greet them with this sweet arrangement.

One thing I love about this time of year are all the pretty fall colors. Whether it is Halloween or not, pumpkins can be used through Thanksgiving!

That is why I decided to make the Owl Succulent Pumpkin.

I wanted to use my Lady Baltimore Luggage!

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!
