Chair Re-Do

I scored a free chair last week and finished the re-do today.  I am really excited about how it turned out.  It was fun to do.  Although I do have to admit I was a little sad that my home decor doesn't include any "springy" colors.  I was really wanting to paint the chair a creamy yellow or robin's egg blue.  Next time...
Before
 And after!

I used Satin Black spray paint and  fabric from JoAnn's.

French inspired Hutch

022
I picked up this hutch at goodwill for $25 I liked the curves, I am re doing my daughters bedroom and thought it might make the perfect piece for her.

I decided not to strip this piece and just sand which later became a HUGE regret, I primed the inside before painting it Gold. I used a spray paint my sister had 5 cans of this Berry color that she decided not to use  which was perfect for her.
 
DIY Club
 
You need to check out the Painters Pyramids, I put under them under the Hutch before I spray painted.  I LOVE THEM they are my new Favorite tool. I found them on www.thediyclub.com 
 

I let my daughter help paint the metallic gold on to the edging she did a great job. We also changed the knobs, I used some that I pulled off another dresser and Painted them as well. The metal decorative pieces I picked up a little while ago on clearance for 2/$1.00 they were perfect for my project.
