Monday Make-Over & Exciting News!

Don’t you just love getting involved in a project and seeing the end result?  Well, I got involved in some very easy and simple projects this weekend and must say that I absolutely love the end results!!  I decided to give my half bath bathroom cabinets a little make-over.  I took the plain old ugly oak cabinets and decided to prim them up a little bit with some Olde Century Paint.  If you haven’t had the chance to experience this paint then you definitely need to give it a try.  It can be expensive, but if you plan on enjoying something for many years to come then it is worth the investment.   I decided to use primmer this time around instead of sanding and it worked out just fine.  I then decided to paint my cabinet doors a color that would match my walls and border that I already had up.  I liked my bathroom, but didn’t care for the plain cabinets.  I chose the Olde Brick Red for my cabinet doors.  Here are a couple before pictures……

Here are the after pictures…..

So, what do you all think?  It was fast and easy and what a make-over!!  Gotta love what a little prim paint can do for a room.

I also decided to dive into yet another project on Sunday.  Yep, I gotta stay busy and that is exactly what I did this past weekend.  Mom was wanting her bathroom cabinets painted so I re-finished her master bathroom for her.  Here are a couple before pictures….

We once again went with Olde Century Paints and we chose the Goldenrod Yellow for her master bathroom cabinets.  I applied dark walnut stain to my cabinets as well as her cabinets just to give them a more prim look and to finish them off.  Here is the after pictures…..  we also did some decorating too. 

I still have to add knobs to both sets of cabinets, but I am working on that today.  I am staining some wood knobs in the dark walnut for my cabinets and adding black knobs to my Mom’s.  So, do you all love the prim colors or what?!?

I have some more goodies to share with you, but that will have to wait til tomorrow.  For now I wanted to share some exciting news with all of you.  Mom and I made a trip to North Shore Primitives on Saturday.  We had a wonderful time and I was so very excited when the owner (Vicki) told me that I should bring in some of my signs and game boards to her shop.  She said that she would absolutely love it if she could sell some of my stuff in her store.  Did you hear that ladies?!?  What an honor for me!!!!  I was so excited and so thankful when she mentioned that.  So, I need to start working on some stuff and take it in to her and probably go shopping once again.  Gotta love having another excuse to go shopping in her wonderful prim store.  I just think it will be neat to see my stuff hanging up in her shop.  Can you sense the excitement in my voice?!?  Yep, I am smiling from ear to ear!!

Well, ladies I better run for now.  I have a little boy that is telling me that he is SO SO hungry for mac & cheese.

Until Next Time…..Blessings Always!!
