Painted chest

I recently changed the colors in my bedroom and therefore this chest did not match anymore. I saw a picture in my HGTV magazine with a painted leather chest. So I decided to give it a try. 

I used white paint and ebony wood stain. 

It turned out perfect

From dinning table top to TV stand

I found this table top at a local thrift store for 15 bucks. I had no idea what to do with it but it was in perfect condition. One day I was looking for a TV stand for my bedroom and I remembered the table top.

I took all the hardware off and made two pieces out of the top.

I went to our local hardware store and had some plumbing pipes cut to the size I needed. I attached them to the table top.

Attached both pieces together

It turned out nice

2 pieces makes one

I was searching for a fruniture piece to go in my bathroom but nothing was the right size. So I decided to search around my house see if a can but two pieces together. I found this chest at a local thrift store and painted it a while back to go in my closet.

I bought this piece years ago at an antique store and used it to store some kitchen items.

I decided to see how they would look together and I was a perfect match but of course they needed some TLC to be put together.

I sanded and primed each piece and attached them together with brackets in the back

I used left over white paint 2 coats 

Replaced the drawer handles

Found some glass tile I had left over from another project 

Them came together perfectly 

Chalkboard dresser

This was a fun one to create. All the drawers were painted with chalk paint. The base was painted an off white. It will look good in any room.

Game table with storage

Kids and adults will love this one. I painted the chairs and put together two solid wood crates to create this game and storage table.

Beer bottles and cans

I love the way theses came out. It's an easy way to decorate. Spray paint, hot glue, and twine.

Toddler Bed

I had fun making this toddler bed for my granddaughter. She is able to get in and out on her own. She sleeps much better in her bed now, she never liked sleeping in her crib.

Barn door

This was an inexpensive way to put a door In between the master bedroom and bathroom. Cost less then $175. We found an old plain white door 90"x40" at habitat for humanity for $7 and added 1x4s around all sides to give it that barn door look. Painted it with chalk paint and hung it with plumbing pipes.
