wait until you see what I have in store...
I have had this antique Queen Anne style chair for quite some time and I really didn't know what to do with it, so I painted it blue...and I really didn't like how it turned out, so instead of finishing it I left it half sprayed until the day I could be inspired to transform it.
Well my friends that day has come, stay tuned for the reveal...I will give you all a small sneak peek at the inspiration photo below for what I have in mind:

In the details
I have been hired by my sister to re-do her room. We live together and she feels that she needs a little revamp to the old boudoir. It's pretty nice now, but it's still missing artwork, shelves and decor. Soon enough I'll turn this little Tiffany's box into a gem.
Here are just some of the things I plan to do:
1. reupholster the green chair in a light beige linen and add nail heads
2. paint the elephant lamp base (a light colour) and get a new slightly larger lamp shade with piping
3. add silver picture frames
4. A new antique mirror above the dresser
5.Change the hardware on the dresser
6. Possibly a lighter area rug colour
7. Add a lamp and some shelves in the reading/chair nook
8. Paint the metal stool base a light beige or white
9. And finally accessorize with art, pillows, decor!
