My mom is a wonderful lady and I am so lucky to be her daughter. She has taught me so much in my life, but over the past couple of years I’ve begun to teach her some things too!! I convinced her (and my sister) to come along with me to the FARM CHICKS a few years ago….and she caught the junking bug!!!
My mom Marilyn, my niece Megan, my sister Tanya and myself at The Farm Chicks!! One of the many trips out to the car with our finds!!
I must say, like so many of us, her style of decorating has changed over the years. She and my Dad have recently moved to the Sunshine Coast and built their dream home right by the ocean. This in itself provides so much fun for decorating!! West Coast Style mixed with the Ocean view….ahhhh it has been so much fun watching and helping her fill her home with new and old treasures over the past 3 years!!
Her latest project involved painting!! I am so proud of her for tackling this big job on her own!! One of her guest rooms has the bedroom furniture that my parents bought so many years ago. Very nice furniture, and made so well….BUT…not the style or color for her new home. She came to visit me one day and she and I went and spent some time looking over some CeCe Caldwell paint colors. She bought some supplies and carried on home and the next thing I new she started sending me pics of all this furniture she was painting!! I must admit, I was shocked that she took the plunge and painted it!! But what a great surprise!! It looks wonderful! And she is so happy with how it turned out that she is far from done!!
Here are a few pictures of some of the projects she has been working on…
She’s still thinking that she would like to change the knobs…she just hasn’t found the right ones yet. And I did have to give her a little trouble for not taking before pictures!! But to give you an idea, they were a VERY dark wood before. She still has to paint the bed, so I will make sure that she sends a before picture as well as the finished project!! I can’t wait to go and see it in person!!
Great job Mom!! What a wonderful makeover for such a small cost!! She loves it so much that she has picked out a different color and is getting ready to tackle her dining room table, chairs and china cabinet….it is going to look fantastic!! I will make sure to post lots of before and after pictures on that project.
Here is one of my favorite pics of my mom and I and my kids. Just a little stroll after dinner one night at their house. Wonderful Memories!!
I would love to see some of your before and after projects!! It’s amazing what a coat of paint will do to change the look of a piece of furniture. Maybe you have your eye on a piece in your house right now….don’t be afraid!! Take the plunge and do it!! If you need any advice on color or technique, don’t hesitate to drop me a line!!
Cheers!! And Happy Painting!!
