DIY Closet Hack with Fusion Metallic Paint in Bronze & a Patterned Paint Roller

19/4/2018

0 Comments

 
This is my sad and tired built-in wardrobe. On a whim I decided to give it a glamorous makeover using what I had on hand.

The paint was in good enough shape, certainly not worth repainting, but it was just so blah...

I'm a firm believer that Fusion Metallic Paint makes everything better.

And Bronze? Bronze is an discovered gem of a colour. It doesn't get heaps of attention, but really delivers impact.

​Metallic paint goes a long way, I started this project with half a pot — and ended this project with half a pot!

The DIY Paint Bar...Old Doors, New Paint & Good Times!

23/1/2017

We love playing with paint and we thought it would be fun to create a space to play, experiment, test new colours and just have fun!

Here's how it all started...
​
We admit to being door-obsessed.

​These vintage beauties were ready-and-waiting to be painted in diverse shades of Miss Mustard Seed's Milk Paint before being used to line the walls behind the DIY Paint Bar.

Refinishing a Vintage Table with Fusion Metallics, Old World Paint...and a Secret (Roller) Weapon!

21/2/2016

2 Comments

 
It's a solid old girl that holds a special place in my heart as did its original owner.  I actually inherited the table from a hilariously crotchety elderly man who lived behind my apartment while I was at uni.

He  was the epitomy of grumpy...and I adored him. I'd take him the occasional meal or plate of cookies, which he'd refuse. One time, I didn't knock,  I just left the food on a table on the front porch. Later from my upstairs bedroom window I saw him come out, snatch the plate and head inside with it. The next time I saw him he said, "well if you're just going to leave food out there to waste..."

When he passed, the family offered me whatever I wanted. I accepted this solid maple dropdown table...and a rocking chair (also due for a relove....)

So here it is in its well-worn, well-used, well-loved state...
