So I gave my nightstands another makeover!! Actually my whole bedroom is getting a makeover and I am loving it all. I am just about done. Josh is slowly learning that this is my hobby. He has his hobbys...fishing, hunting, any kind of sports, FISHING.....ha ha. I love making things. Whether it be sewing, any kind of craft, trying new recipes. And I love painting furniture and makeovers. It is very obvious around here :)
So back to the nightstands. You can read about the 1st transformation they got here. This is what they looked like when my mom first gave them me.
I painted them a pretty blue color...
I loved them! But now I am pretty obsessed with YELLOW :) :) :) Yellow makes me happy! Our bedroom makeover consists of dark teal, grey and yellow. So I painted them yellow.
It is called Elevator Button by Valspar. I left the tops of them the natural wood & I LOVE THEM!
I love how paint changes the whole look of something and it didn't take long at all to do. I am all for painting and re-doing the furniture you have instead of buying new furniture. Or atleast looking on Craigslist or yard sales/thrift stores and finding cheap furniture to re-do. It is so much fun and makes them one of a kind :)
The only thing left to do in our bedroom is make a couple of throw pillows, cover the lampshades and get a big rug for under our bed. Eventually I want to make a ruffle bed skirt but that is not something on my to-do list for right now. Can't wait to get it all done!

LOVE the yellow! Great job! :)
ReplyDeleteThey look amazing!!! I might have to copy leaving the tops natural for our night stands:)
ReplyDeleteYou're right, they do look so much better now that before! Are you considering doing any other alterations in the bedroom. I have a soft spot for log beds myself.
