Revived by Delia: Next Stop On The DIY Blog Tour!

I have been blogging for about a year. It has been amazing on so many levels. I have met so many great people who have been so supportive in this endeavor. But I was asked if I would be willing to come “on tour”… what an honor…

I picked up this oak chair ages ago with the intentions of redoing it quickly. Finally the other day, I pulled it out and gave it the attention it deserved!

Updated Dry Sink – Spring Paint

This next redo was an attempt at willing spring to arrive more speedily – it’s a nice pastel green, that means it must be nearly spring, right?!

Raggedy-Chic Chair

This chair was the definition of why I do this – it was dusty and forgotten and needed a little revival!

What to do, what to do?? Any suggestions?

Chippy Red Library Chairs

Keeping it Real

There is old and dated, and then there is old and lovely. The difference is the life in the grains. Sometimes a piece needs to be slathered in paint to feel revived, and other times it just needs to be given a freshening up. A dear friend of my father’s has heard of my habitual furniture rehab and has taken it upon himself to grab pieces for me along his travels. This chair was one such piece.
