β¨ From Boring to Beautiful β¨
Ever walked past that piece of furniture that no one seems to want? The one that looks too plain or uninspiring? Well, those are my favorite kind of projects!
The truth is, those "boring" pieces are hidden gems waiting for a little imagination and love. A bold color, stunning wallpaper, and a few unique touches can completely transform them into showstoppers!
Swipe to see how I took this forgotten piece and turned it into something truly fabulous. Sometimes, the pieces no one notices are the ones with the most potential!

From drab to FAB! This once sad, brown cabinet is now a stunning bar cabinet that demands attention. β¨ With gold legs, sleek gold hardware, a motion-sensor light for that extra touch of luxury, and bold black-and-white wallpaper, itβs officially the life of the party. π€π€ The half-dowel detailing added the perfect dose of texture, bringing this piece to the next level. What do you think of this glow-up?

This big beauty was found broken and bruised in a thrift store, missing decorative trim at the bottom of the piece, the whole backer board and with a multitude of dings all over the top. But those details and the hardware...I just HAD to save it!

Now she is an absolute classic in Navy and Gold!

Gorgeous in green!!
This simple mid century modern hutch got a makeover in a mixture of Earthen Ash & Overland Green. I added half dowels (quite honestly because the veneer was so thin and was chipping along several edges) and lovely wall paper from . I also added oak veneer to the shelves (that might be a story for another time)

I found this little beauty hiding under a desk at a thrift store last week and I had to take it home and lighten it up a bit! I just couldn't pass up that wood grain and that hardware! ππ

this living room set went from drab and damaged to absolutely lovely in Shade Green by Wise Owl. The wallpaper is from Amazon and they feature their original hardware.

I knew as soon as I saw this that it would be a perfect piece for the furniture flipping challenge! It required so many repairs! And then I sanded, tan-washed and glazed it. I replaced all the hardware. Added a gorgeous furniture transfer from . And then added peel and stick wallpaper with a green sack look to it to the interior of the drawers. And now it's perfectly imperfect. β€οΈ


This gorgeous vintage Drexel dresserhas been painted in Alabaster by Wise Owl and gorgeous wallpaper by Spoonflower was added to the interior of the doors. The amazing hardware is original to the piece. Simply beautiful.

Some pieces just require more of you! And this piece required so much! But it was so worth it!
This was just the discarded bottom to a hutch. Unwanted. Now it's a stunning, versatile piece!
The top was stripped, sanded and tan-washed, then glazed. Wise Owl Paintainted in Shade Green. The k***s and pulls are from Amazon.
Drawer liners are from Amazon as well.
I removed the original base as it was damaged. And I built a new base, repurposing part of the original bottom piece and the legs of an old table that I had lying around.
And now I'm obsessed!

This color! This lighting! This beautiful set of nightstands!
These are the last of a set that I was lightening up for a client. Previously dark cherry stained but had great bones, this set was definitely worth having refinished!

This little hand-made bookshelf was headed for the dump. A cast off that wasn't anything all too special anymore. I had a vision for it though. 372 half spheres, some gorgeous wallpaper from Amazon and Wise Owl's Inkwell turned this piece into something to love again!
