OK so my old master bedroom was hand me down furniture I had painted to match & I liked it, but it wasn't me.
Thankfully Pinterest inspired me in a big way with a project I could easily duplicate with absolutely $0.
So off I sent Jade to the concrete plant to pick up old beat up pallets & then to the car wash to clean them.
This is why he is the man....
I purchased my night stand, an old tool box, at an auction for around $30. It has a ton of storage and it's totally my style. Anything rusty, metal, and manly and I'm digging on it.
I scored this fabulous dresser at an auction for $85. It was painted black on 2 sides and turquoise on the other - it was bizarre. The inside was FILLED with mud dobbers. After major cleaning - I painted this baby silver, and oh my I am glad I did because it's amazing!
Seriously aren't you in love with this? It's a very heavy, old piece - what a steal!
And see that - it has a secret drawer in the middle!
Trudie got a new dog bed area & yes that sweet painting was made by yours truly.
My desk area got a small makeover. I want to find an old metal chair instead of the turquoise floral one. It's on my to find list.
The little metal cubbies Mom gifted and they are amazing & store a lot of jewelry making stuff!
I now feel like our master bedroom is finally a reflection of our personality and the rest of the house - hooray!
Loving it! I'm drooling over that tool-box-turned-night-stand. I really need to get back to the blogging thing. I miss seeing what everyone is up too.
