I've gotten quite a few requests on how I did the little blue, glazed table in my hall. Ask and ye shall receive! I 'll to do a tutorial about it after the weekend and show you how another reader's before and after project turned out.
But I was wondering, do you have any other questions about painting furniture? Budget decorating? Running your own booth? Running an Etsy store? Why I always change stuff in my house?Ask away, and in another post, I'd love to answer!

I'm excited about the next make-over day. Linking to you brought me lots of guests. It sure was fun seeing a couple of hundred people from all over the world drop over from your place to mine. Thanks for sharing your readers with us!

ReplyDeleteOh how fun, I plan to stop by.
ReplyDeleteLove the little blue table :}

I want to know how to do everything! I have yet to attempt to paint furniture but am dying to try! I love the oval mirror in the picture! I'm looking for a round or oval frame to put on a builder's grade square mirror in my half bath. You always have what I want!! :)
ReplyDeleteOh...I love that little blue table so very much.

I'm anxious for the tutorial AND the make-over party. I'll be there with "bells on!"
ReplyDeleteoh, good, tutorials are fun.....and I have a question about Etsy......is it just for handmade products and about how much time do you spend on it? Thanks!

Love that color!

I have a coffee table I "rescued" and would love to refinish it. I believe the top is veneer, however. What I would like to do is stain it darker but still have the wood pattern show through. How do I do that?
ReplyDeleteLove your how-to's on rehabing everything! I was up the other night until 3am on a project so I understand your need to paint & refurbish pretty old things!LOL! :) chris
ReplyDeleteAnother party! *woot-woot* Thanks for the early heads up...I appreciate it! I'm already eyeing things I can redo! lol
ReplyDeleteYou do such a great job with your paint makeovers, Jen!
ReplyDeleteI do have a question - would you ever paint over an oak bed? It's not a pretty color of oak at all. I was thinking of painting it darker, but wondered if it would work or not. Have a great weekend!
I have people roll their eyes at me all the time because I just have to redecorate, reorganize, repaint, re - something all the time. :) Glad to know there are other people like me, that I'm not the only weird one. :)
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to the tutorial and the make-over party.
Thank you! Can't wait to see your tutorial. I just love that little blue table.
ReplyDeleteI'm redoing my kitchen table and chairs. It's white and pine currently. I want to stain the top and chair seats a darker stain. And then do a cream color with brown glaze on the legs and backs. Any suggestions? Mostly I need to know about the finish. Varnish, wax, polyurethane? Gloss, satin? I have no idea. I want it to last with all the beating up it's going to get in the kitchen.
Thanks in advance!
I love the budget decorating tips! So please, keep them coming! I'd also love to hear how to start up a shop in Esty (my goal for this year) and also setting up a booth. Or how about how to find craft fairs and flea markets in my area?
