did the oops paint work?

Light Bamboo colored dresser gets an overall. Twas awesome in its day, but alas the time has come to coordinate the bedroom.

Dresser was primed and then given one coat of HD oops paint...that's when the worrying began :-)



 The flash increases the OMG WHAT HAVE I DONE factor exponentially... trying not to panic I painted the entire dresser....twice. The second coat hid the white and bamboo color that insisted on peeking through. But, it is still on the purple side. It's time to call in my friend, Ebony. Ebony stain that is :-) I will keep you updated!









This is an after/in progress update. Hmmm maybe another coat of Ebony?

Everyone Needs a Turquoise Desk

Beautiful curves, just the right size and free...ahh, refurbish bliss :-)
Cute little desk found on Freecycle with a small amount of damage that was easily corrected. Just because I'm a little bit proud of the color, I'm posting the pics before the project is finished. Is that a no no? Oh well, please forgive me :-) I just couldn't help myself!









Love me some
Kilz primer!



On the lookout for baskets to fill the gaps and new hardware. Exciting!

Pisa and Tapas

Tapas in Barcelona...doesn't get much better!



 NCL's Epic Cruise Ship sported this incredibly elegant two story crystal LED chandelier. WOW!


This is your view if you have friends like mine :-)
 Pisa...who doesn't love a good cheese ball photo:-)
The beaches at Pisa are not like Panama City! Miles and miles of umbrellas. Each one is rented by the summer!
