Oops, I didn’t get a before pic of this taken. Things got kinda wild while I was getting ready for craft shows. Trust me, it was a hot mess of paint that needed a do-over. I’m calling this a bar stool/table because I’m not sure what it is. I decided it could be either. I […]

Kids’ Western Table and Chairs Restyle
This cute little set would be perfect in a child’s room, but would also blend well in other living areas of your home. It didn’t start out that way though… This was a junk find I picked up this summer. The surface looked like a child had scribbled just about everywhere with markers. I’m thinking […]
All of my furniture restyles are junk finds I have found at yard sales, auctions and thrift stores, maybe even a few hand-me-downs from family and friends. Many of them need repairs, tweaks or complete transformations. Regardless of their initial state, my favorite way to breathe new life into them is with paint. For the […]

Skinny Side Table-Western Style
Skinny Side Table-Western Style Since my friend passed away my husband has helped to fill the void by doing things with me that she would have done…like looking for bargains. I appreciate his thoughtfulness so much. He went with me to some yard sales a few weeks ago and we came across this little gem. […]
Antiqued Western End Table I picked up this little gem a few weeks ago at auction. Okay, “gem” may be too strong of a word, but let’s just say I saw potential. Paint. Yep, I love me some paint. After sanding, I gave the table a couple coats of white paint. I, of course, […]
Western Revival If anything needed revived, it was this nightstand. The paint color and application was…um…interesting. Now I can’t say I don’t like green, after all, I just used a similar shade on the eaves of my shutter birdhouses, but this shade did not appeal to me. Actually I cursed this awful paint color as […]
Rustic Western Cooler Another treasure from the barn. This was a score I had picked up a few years ago at a yard sale for $1. From the condition it looked like it had sat outside. The structure was good, but the outside surface was pretty rough and weathered. Since the cooler inside looked like […]
Easter is just around the corner. Have you purchased a bag of plastic Easter eggs yet? My kids are grown, so I can finally skip the plastic grass and eggs. I still like decorating for the holiday, so I decided to try a more decor friendly twist using the old eggs I already have. What […]
I think this table would be perfect in country, ranch or cabin decor. Yippee ki-yay! Country/Western Table I found the table at an auction. One of the curly handles was missing. Nobody wanted it, so the auctioneer offered it to me. Hey, don’t judge me! It was free! As I was toting it to my […]
I am so relieved pleased at the way this turned out. This transformation should have been simple, but I had one disaster after another. No one was around, so I was able to clean up the messes and move on before anyone could catch me in the act. So why confess now? Eh, it’s more […]
