Just paint it white or some other light color!  You can’t go wrong.

White or light colored furniture goes with everything. It brightens up a space and it’s easy to decorate around.

Whether you use a Purdy brush or a sprayer you will find that there’s great satisfaction with transforming an old outdated piece of furniture. Taking trash and making it a treasure. Creating a beautiful space from Fixer Upper to Fabulous! You can do it with effort and determination. Make the space yours! Let me show you how.

If you are more in to color, I have an array of ideas for you! Fashion colors like this blue piece, this green one, that red piece, how about orange and so forth are awesome. Let your style be reflected in your furniture. It only takes one colorful piece to make a space come alive!

    1. Debbie, I love your blog! I have several pieces of furniture that I’m planning to paint white, so this post caught my attention! Can you give some tips on painting and then distressing? I’ve never done it and I’m not sure what products to use. Would love any ideas you can share. Thanks!
