painting furniture






we found this cart at a recent estate sale. (i am not sure how much it was since it was bundled with several pieces of midcentury modern.)

with all of this furniture painting that i have been adoring on the internets, i immediately saw some colorful potential. the piece is solid wood. in case you are wondering, i had no guilt about covering the wood. i have so much dark wood around, i needed a break from it. also, its intended for the girls room in the log home where there is plenty of wood.

it did take me much longer than i anticipated to paint, what with all of the coats and sanding and snow. fortunately, there was a good deal of golf to keep me going.

detailed painting guide to come with photos of the finished piece.

can you guess what color i painted it?

while you are waiting for me to put the hardware back on, here are some fabulous redo's to enjoy:

very sad dresser

coral goodness

these gorgeous projects were discovered via centsational girl's paint link party. my favorites are always the pieces that are painted brightly to add a big pop of color. BTW, centsational girl has a terrific blog. let me tell you, that girl is not afraid to lay down some paint.
