Welcome to the make over open house!

Thanks again for stopping by! I can't wait to see what every one has. I know this is over the holiday,so I will leave this up a few days so any late comers can join in too! I only ask that you link back to this post, even if it is an old post and that you link up with the post specific to the make over, not your blog.

This bench was for  a client. 
It was a little bit country...


Here it's a little bit ugly...


Now it's a little bit rock and roll!

So link up and let's see those fab make overs, projects and great trash to treasures!
And I just want to say thank you to all of those who have served this Memorial Day.

  22. Looks great Jen. It's amazing how a few coats of paint can give an object a whole new look. From country to classy. NICE!

  23. I love it! I wouldn't have thought to fill in the country-ish hearts. It looks great! I don't think my dresser makeover will be done in time for this make over, but I'll definitely be browsing for inspiration.

  31. I too would like to know what you filled in the hearts with. I've passed up several pieces of furney because they had those carved hearts and looked too country. Now I know I don't have to!

    ReplyDelete

  32. That looks really wonderful. I love the way you filled in the hearts and lines. I really looks so different...give yourself a pat on the back!

    I always look forward to the 25th and your blog.

    YAY
