Friday Favs!

With the whirlwind of everyday life, and trying to find some time to relax and enjoy some time to myself, I thought it was time for a new update and what more than a perfect time than Friday Favs. I mean everyone loves Fridays right? It's the end of the workweek (for those of you with normal 9-5 jobs, definately not in the medical profession), it's a time to have fun, relax with friends and family and catch up on those weekend projects that have been lurking around, maybe that's just in my case ha! Anyway, I was thinking today about what projects I needed to get done and it dawned on my that I have a few pieces of furniture that need "re-purposed" and it inspired me to share with you my FAVORITE diy trash to treasure furniture revamps. So if you have an old hutch, desk, dresser or big chunk of wood that you are dying to do something with, maybe my favorite before and after's will inspire the artist in you.

 Just by using a fresh coat of gloss on matte paint and new pulls makes and old dresser look new and modern

 How about stenciling on a piece of furniture like this one...oh how I could do a lot will this!

 Think twice about throwing out an old dresser and side tables, look how beautiful these came out!

 One of my Favorites! Turning an old tv stand into a play kitchen, how fun would that be for your little one and cheap for you!

My absolute favorite piece is this demask painted dresser. I have the perfect dresser that I have been wanting to pain like this!

I hope these diy projects have not only inspired you, but given you the courage to go out their and get to work and set free your own imagination. I can't wait to try some of these favorite ideas out on my own pieces of trash and making them my new gems! Whether it's old, new, used or warped, I'm sure you can re-purpose your treasured pieces of furniture to look like these pieces of artful masterpieces. Until next Friday........
