YELLOW




I refinished a bunch of furniture for my friend a couple weeks ago and was excited to FINALLY work with some FABULOUS, bright colors! Her house is a rental and all WHITE so she was wanting some color... and definitely got it! :) 

I've always loved.loved.loved this piece she's had in her house, so I was shocked when she asked me to paint it. BUT everyone gets sick of looking at the same thing for too long, so I totally understood. It's weird to paint a piece and have the before pictures look the same as the afters, but here's a few pictures anyway...

Before...
(Adorable and so my style! And blurry... sorry)
 And since my pictures of this were awful, you get to see an instagram picture :) ...
After...

 The insides were pretty beat up so I covered them in craft paper using Mod Podge...

Inspired by...

Handles are from Hobby Lobby.
*I'll update soon with the name of the color I used!

And more of her furniture coming soon...

UPDATE
 I've had a few people ask for the color I used on this piece. It was BEHR "BRIGHT STAR" for anyone interested. I distressed and sealed over the top. No glaze on this piece, so yes, it is true to the color.

  1. Love, love, love these pieces. Bold brights are so in now. I was just in a new home that had Bright orange sofas and dark, bold, teal wood pieces and it was so cool. Your choice of colors are always so appropriate.
