We painted out all the beadboard in a bright white, it immediately lightened the space. |
Bought new denim couches (very comfortable). |
The coffee table I built got a fresh look, went from black to a pretty turquoise blue. |
We had some pictures we took in Mexico enlarged and framed them. |
This chair has been re-upholstered three times! It's been burgundy, red and now brown. |
White curtains bought at thrift store for 4$, and white cotton bedspreads to cuddle up with (3 for 10$) |
Cushions I recovered with new fabrics (and my very cute Molly!) |
A cushion I made from an embroidered tea towel bought in Seattle. |
This pretty much sums it up for me! |
I love all things "Coastal"!!! |

Kathy,
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your kind words! You are one of the reasons i'm finally putting my projects together in a "Portfolio" of sorts, as much for myself as to inspire anyone else who's ever felt like they can't do something... Over the years I've been surprised by what I can do, I just have to be willing to try. I've failed at some projects, but most have turned out even better than I ever would have imagined...the best part has been the fun I have trying! Thanks for your words of encouragement now and over the years!
I'll keep posting, keep following!
Sandra
