Yet Another Project Idea

I picked up this Craig's List diamond in the rough for $49.  I think it's going in the office/guest room.

With these knobs...

...and a few coats of glossy paint, she will be a fox!  While I am considering bright white or black, a pale lavender is lurking in the back of my mind. Here is some of my inspiration:

Ooooo... I can paint the inside of the drawers a fun color too. The possibilities are endless...

Casual Friday: Craig's List Finds

Richmond's Craig's List is... oh, how shall I put this... not as bountiful as other cities.  Lucky for me, I am in the DC area often enough that I can scour that market for treasure.  Here are some  DC Craig's List finds that could be fantastic with a little paint and some TLC:

 Thomasville Faux Bamboo Server - Paint and some new hardware.

Bamboo and Cane Bedroom Furniture - Same thing here - paint and some new hardware.

WS Home Chair (Honey, this would be a great addition to our home if we got the price down.)

Love the marble top!  Paint the wood and change the hardware and you've got yourself a snazzy new addition to your home.  You could do the same with these:

Marble Top Dresser and Nightstands

Paint the base of this table and pair with some fabulous chairs!

I want this for my boys bedroom.  The dresser would look awesome lacquered in a Kelly green and the nightstands would be perfect lacquered in white or navy!  To clean up the hardware, just remove and scrub with Bar Keeper's Best Friend. 

I am looking forward to a beautiful weekend spent with family and good friends! Have a fantastic one!

Cheers!
