I owe my stepdaughter Victoria a huge apology. When we moved into this house 5 years ago she was 12 and wanted eggplant colored walls. I let her have one, and painted the other three walls easter egg lavender barf.
She moved in full time last month and requested black walls with white accents. I got out my ladder and drop sheets before she could say “you have ruined all colors for me”
That’s the closet view. I painted the inside white to brighten it up and encourage her to use it. We will hang the art and mirror soon V, I promise.
This table was high gloss and burgundy. I forgot to photograph it before I sanded it.
It’s from the same thrift shopping spree as the credenza and was only $60. All I needed was a large table that could seat 8 and had no leafs (leaves?) to insert. Leaf tables feel wobbly.
whitewashed
The old table ended up as the new office desk;
i used to squeeze guests around this desk to eat and they were too polite to complain
Which prompted an office re-paint and re-organize;
great grandmother's desk (could be a different distant relative)
My grandmothers old dresser got demoted to the office but I still love it. And the art is unfinished, so don't start judging
The bookshelf was inspired by the bookshelf in this video;
I picked up this old dresser at a nearby thrift shop for $100, threw on about $20 0f paint and transformed her from granny to drunk college student in 2 days.
Can’t help thinking about this (totally geek to totally chic);
