Nine Projects- Three Months

Hello!
It has been far too long my friend.
I have been neglecting my blog and I feel terrible about it.
We have been very busy with family, work and projects- many projects.

Today I would like to share with you all the things you have missed!
My Facebook and Instagram followers have already seen what we have been up to- but I wanted to fill you in.
 
Found this beaut on the curb side (in the rain- might I add!)

And spray painted it- of course!
We are using it in the garage right now.
 
Here is another curb side find - It's from Basset and was in pretty good condition.
My husband replaced all the drawer glides, sanded it down...

Painted and replaced the cabinet hardware

Then- I cut cardboard the size of the drawers and covered it with fabric to make this insert for all of the drawers.
 
Since we are using the dresser in our master bedroom- I decided to make new curtains, to tie in the navy blue.
 
I painted a wall in our living room. And we got a fabulous new rug to tie all the colors together.
(See that wing back chair in the corner-- I found that on the curb side- can you believe it!?)
 

My husband and I made this awesome work bench and bar for our garage a couple weeks back.
 
You may remember this Post-- from 3 YEARS AGO!

Well, I FINALLY painted my Grandmother's jewelry box.
And I couldn't be happier with the outcome.
 
Another blast from the past- this coffee table (from the same Post)
I found this coffee table at the Goodwill for $15 bucks.
We finally fixed it up and made it into a--
 
 
Bench for our master bedroom- notice the nail head accent!
 
And last but certainly not least- my husband found this chair curb side.
I spray painted it and reupholstered the seat with fabric to match our other chairs
 
 
In the meantime work has also been crazy busy- I will be posting about my latest projects soon.
 
Hope all is well in your world.

Obsessed With: Metal, Spray Paint & Gray

 
Here are a couple things that I am currently obsessed with:
 
Mixing Metal's




 
Don't be afraid to mix metals- Silver, brass, bronze or chrome.
Just look at these interiors and how well they blend together.
 
 
Metallic Spray Paint
 
 
Lately, I have been spray painting everything in sight.
This is also helping me to incorporate my "mixing metal" obsession.
Rust-oluem is my brand of choice- for all of my projects. I find they have the best coverage and best colors.
 
Gray's

 
As of late- Gray has been taking over tan and beige's spot as a new neutral. I have been using it in our personal home for awhile now. But I couldn't be more excited to have my clients using it now, as well.
