I had the day off from work and didn't want to spend it sitting around or watching movies. So on a whim I bought a gallon of paint and redid our bedroom. :)
I've also been refinishing a table & chairs I bought at a garage sale for $40, and finally completed that project. It took me forever with work and vacationing, but I love how they turned out.
Bedroom before:
The paint I bought wasn't dark enough so I found some old black and some dark brown paint to mix in (and thought it looked cool:)
I painted subliminal messages into the wall, ha ha:
And after all the work:
I got a cool frame for $3 at a garage sale, and after refinishing it hung my wedding bouquet :)
Here's the beautiful chair cushion I sadly removed to reupholster:
And the table with paint stains and lots of scratches:
I ripped the fabric off the cushions:
And stapled new fabric on:
I also refinished the wood table top- sanded, stained, and applied poly-acrylic. And I repainted the chairs and table legs to lighten them a bit.
The grand finale:
