My mom gave us this adorable unfinished cabinet and shelf which needed some color. I know, the color looks very similar to our dresser, but what can I say? Blues and greens are my thing. It is a a bit darker though to match the blues in our living room.
I was being lazy on Sunday when I started painted and Instagrammed a pic of the cabinet with the unfinished insides asking if it was ok to do that since those side doors would hide the inside. But I'm glad I didn't keep it that way. Sometimes I need a kick in the pants to get rid of my laziness.
And I'm going to put succulents in all those little planters on the shelf and the owls on the bottom. I stalked Ebay and Etsy for them and I have a feeling these won't be the only ones. The poor little succulents that are already there aren't doing so well. They had a hard time surviving through the winter. They are used to the California sun.
These furniture makeovers you're sharing are so wonderful! Makes me wanna paint SOMETHING! :)
ReplyDeleteVery cute! Nice to see you nesting!
ReplyDeleteAnd a little off topic: the title of this post totally reminded me of that song "Ice Cream Paint Job..." Not sure if this was very popular anywhere else, but the chorus is catchy: http://youtu.be/0yfArN-e2OU
There should be a lifestyle blogger parody of this made *stat.*
