A Whole New Look!

I love repurposing furniture, “tweeking” it a little bit, just to give it a different look! Well, I was given this day bed and liked it how it was – brass and rod iron, however, I thought if I painted it black it would give it a whole new look and be a little more of the style that I like in my own home. I’ve posted another bed in my home that I painted black as well. This just gives you an idea on what you can do with some outdated beds! A little sandpaper, a few cans of spray paint and a little time. Done!!!



This daybed was a little outdated for my taste and style, so updating it with some black spray paint did the job! I love how the black pops against the lighter colored walls and the lighter colored quilt and pillows!

I’ve posted this bed before, but I wanted to show you an example of what a little black paint can do to an “older” brass and rod iron bed. I wish I was a better photographer and could really capture how cute this room really is! It’s one of my favorite rooms in my house!


One Brush Stroke at a Time!

Painting a piece of furniture in your home is a really quick and inexpensive way to completely change up a look! It’s amazing what a little paint can do to redefine a piece of furniture you already own! As seen from the photos below, the barn red cabinets were nice, however, I absolutely love the black and wish I would have painted the cabinets black a long time ago!

Love, love, love the black cabinets now!



After photo – the black paint totally updated the cabinets!
