A Celebration of GREEN!

Green Kitchen Cabinets

Hi friends!

Well it is just about here and in celebration of St. Patrick’s Day, let’s celebrate green! I mean isn’t that what we should do?! Speaking of green, remember that we’ve launched our Earth Day Upcycling Contest. Redo something and share before and after photos HERE for a chance to win!

Earth Day 2024

Over the years we have refreshed, updated, and repurposed countless numbers of kitchens, making them over into new and fresh spaces our clients want to spend time in with friends and family! Join me as I share some of my favorite GREEN kitchen makeovers, and I hope you will stick with me to the end to learn a few cool facts about St. Patrick himself and to gain a better understanding of why green is so essential this time of year and how to bring that into our homes!

If you are having trouble viewing the images, click here.

Here are some of my favorites over the years!

DID YOU KNOW?

Originally, the color of St. Patrick’s Day was blue (it’s true-Google it!). Seen in this early depiction of St. Patrick himself, blue garments were donned during early feast celebrations in honor of St. Patrick. It wasn’t until the late 1800’s when the color association shifted from blue to green (TIME magazine article).

WHY GREEN?

Okay, so besides the festivities of St. Patrick’s Day, what is it about green that we love so much this time of year?

Green elicits feelings of harmony and peace and is associated with growth and renewal. I think all of these emotions are things we all want to feel and cultivate in our everyday lives. For that reason, green makes a great color option for anyone’s home! Whether it is embracing a full paint project in your kitchen, refurbishing a tired piece of furniture, replacing pillow covers, or placing fresh greens inside or out, green is more than just a color for St. Patrick’s Day-it’s a color we can love any time of year in any place in our homes!

If you would like to know more about getting your kitchen painted (green or otherwise!), or maybe you have a piece of furniture that could use a facelift, check out the links below to learn more about those services! I would love to help!

FunCycled Announces Earth Day Upcycling Contest

Earth Day 2024

Hi friends!

I hope you had a great weekend!

For today’s Tuesday Treasure, I want to shift gears a little and get us pumped about an upcoming event near and dear to us here at FunCycled. As you may know, one thing we love to do is give new purpose to items that may seem old or outdated and refresh them with new purpose. After all, that is the mission and heart of what we do!

A few years ago, FunCycled began hosting a special contest in honor of Earth Month, recognized during the month of April. Over the past few years the contest has changed a bit, but today we are so excited to share that we are once again hosting this contest- all of which will culminate with a VERY special event on April 20, 2024 with the BIG REVEAL of our contest winner! Below are all the details you need to know.

If you are having trouble viewing the photos, click here.

WHAT IS THE EARTH DAY UPCYCLING CONTEST?

The Earth Day Upcycling contest is designed to showcase your creativity or share your innovation by upcycling objects and giving them new purpose. Take a look around your house and I guarantee you will find something that might be headed for the trash, but if you look at it with a different lens, you can repurpose it and make it new again!

WHAT ITEMS CAN BE UPCYCLED?

Here’s the fun part! ANYTHING can be repurposed and submitted for the contest. You can upcycle clothes, wood, furniture, books, metal, or any other thing that is headed for the trash and you see a way to upcycle it into a new treasure!

For some inspiration, check out these upcycled creations! (photos from Pinterest – click photo for original source)

WHO CAN PARTICIPATE?

Anyone and everyone! We invite all people from around the Capital District to join in. The point is to encourage ALL of us to take something old and make it new again by giving it a new purpose! Even if you aren’t too sure if this project is for you, tell someone else about it! And you never know, as you share, it may spark an idea!

HOW DO I ENTER THE CONTEST?

Here are the details of how to take part in this fun project and enter the contest!

  • Make a plan for your vision (remember to take before photos)
  • Create you new up cycled item
  • Submit your information, including a before and after photo of your project to FunCycled by completing this FORM (reminder, photos due by April 7th.)

HOW IS THE WINNER DETERMINED?

Once we have compiled the submissions, we will share everyone’s creations and begin collecting votes. Here’s what you need to know:

  • FunCycled will share the submitted photos on our social media channels (Facebook, Pinterest, & Instagram Stories) on April 10th
  • We will ask for people to cast votes for their favorite creation by liking the corresponding photo
  • Voting will conclude on April 17th at 9 am
  • The photo with the most votes on our social media pages wins!

HOW IS THE WINNER ANNOUNCED?

After we have tallied all of the votes, FunCycled will host a special event at our Award Ceremony Celebration on Saturday, April 20, 2024, hosted by Sand Lake Merchant. We invite all participants and their friends and family to join us to celebrate the winner and to champion efforts in Upcycling and repurposing in honor of Earth Month. Contestants can feel free to bring small Upcycled projects to the award ceremony!

WHAT WILL HAPPEN ON APRIL 20, 2024?

Mark this date and remember to keep it open because you could be the winner! That day, we invite everyone to gather at Sand Lake Merchant, located at 2869 NY Highway 43, Averill Park, NY 12018, to enjoy some Upcycled creations and celebrate our winner! Keep an eye out for more information on our social media channels as we get closer!

SO WHAT SHOULD I DO NEXT?

Your next step is to collect your thoughts and gather your materials to get your creation going and then submit to us ASAP! Oh, and don’t forget to share about this contest with your friends and family! The more, the merrier!

Rundown to Renewed: This Cohoes Home Gets a Kitchen Makeover

Light Gray Kitchen

Hi Friends!

Have you ever considered giving your kitchen a new look, but not sure where to begin? In today’s blog, I want to share with you the story of my clients who recently purchased a 3,200 square foot Colonial home in Cohoes, NY. While the house boasts ample living space and plenty of storage, the style of the home didn’t quite match the style my clients were seeking to express in their new home. That’s where the FunCycled team comes in!

With over 12 years of experience working in the Capital Region, we have worked with several clients to understand their personal style and needs, so completing this kitchen makeover to match the outcome for them was our joy!

If you’re having trouble viewing the photos on this post, click here

Take a look at the before photos. The kitchen is large and functional but the cabinets were outdated and needed new life.

Now check out the after photos! What a difference!

We kept the layout completely the same, and the counters as well as the backsplash remained in place. Simply painting the cabinets gave this tired kitchen the facelift it needed!

Cabinets were painted in Benjamin Moore Stonington Gray and the Island in Benjamin Moore Slate Teal, both with a lacquer finish to ensure the paint is sealed well.

Please note, the true color of the island was not well translated in these after photos, but the finished product was too beautiful to not share it with you! And check out that hardware transformation! What a difference. The black and gold (curiously the same I used in my own home!) really elevates this kitchen and also make it an easy match for other hardware choices in the home!

Below are the swathes for the two paint colors

A huge thanks to Laura and Greg for hiring us to do the kitchen cabinet painting work. 

It is a beautiful transformation!! 

Could your kitchen use an update? We’d love to help!! We can help pick out colors, finishes, product and do the cabinet painting, tiling, add new hardware. You can use our Contact Us form to request our design services or a quote for painting your kitchen. Please check out other kitchen projects on our For Sale page. We’ll need to see a picture of your kitchen, a list of how many doors and drawers there are, and where you are located to email you an estimate. This change ups the value of your home and gives you a whole new look at a fraction of the cost of new kitchen cabinets!

Magnolia Castle Tour Highlights

Chip and Joanna Gaines Magnolia Castle

Hi Friends! 

I hope you all had a great weekend!

A couple of weeks ago (as some of you know), I spent a few days down in Waco visiting one of my favorite spots – Magnolia and the Silos. During my trip, I ventured to the Magnolia Castle with my mom and girlfriends and discovered firsthand why this place is so special! The castle was my favorite part of our Waco trip!

If you can’t view the photos on this blog, click here.

Although the castle first began to be built in 1890, it didn’t reach any sort of completion until 1913. From this time to 1977, the property and castle structure thrived and in 1977, under the guidance of its owner, the castle received historical designation. Unfortunately, during the 1990’s until 2019, the castle wasn’t well maintained, causing damage and the need for great repair. That’s when the heroes of our story (hint, that’s Chip and Joanna) stepped in and purchased the castle. And, of course, their main mission: to restore the castle to its intended glory! To learn more about the castle and the story behind its renovation, click here.

Although I had seen enough pictures, watched plenty of videos, and dreamed plenty of dreams to feel like I had been there already, I realized quickly that there was no way everything I viewed or dreamed could capture the magnificence of the castle and the experience it gives you!

One thing that left a big impression is that the design throughout is careful to maintain the integrity of the original structure, even its earliest iterations from 1890. While I love the style we now so quickly associate with the dynamic Gaines duo (who doesn’t love all things Magnolia?!), I appreciate that this project displays the value of keeping the history of the castle in tact, even down to the design elements and choices. Here are a few of my favorite photos that I took during our trip.

It was not surprising to find special moments around every corner, but as soon as I walked into the dining room I was just amazed! The level of detail is outstanding, and I LOVE that the vibe is completely moody! From the wallpaper selection to the painted black ceiling, guests at this table must feel completed enraptured by the moody colors and the dark atmosphere, exhibiting the perfect touch of ambiance.

Because the style of the castle is so very different from the many projects completed by Magnolia, during the process, Joanna Gaines developed a full line of paint colors to complete every room. Though encompassing a range of colors, including a family of white tones, this line is rich and full of deep tones, giving a beautiful nod to the history and story of this enchanting structure. Check out the full line here.

Also, while we were there, we ate at a fabulous Italian restaurant nearby. Characterized by authentic Italian cuisine, Moroso more than delivered on service and taste! It is an ABSOLUTE MUST when visiting Waco! Below our some pics of the yummy dishes we ordered: Ravioli Di Zucca, a delicious butternut squash ravioli with sage, & classic wood fired pizza, Margherita style!

I want to give my girls a big shout out for being my traveling buddies and happy companions during our visit and tour of the castle! I would do it again in a heartbeat!

And in case you missed it, this is not my first trip to Waco, in fact it is my 7th trip : ) In a recent blog post, I shared all about our stay at the  Gathering Oaks Retreat Center and announced that I’m considering doing ladies Waco Trip for any FunCycled fan in early 2025 and renting out the whole retreat center!! To read the full blog, click here.

Simple Dining Room Table Update Makes a BIG Impact!

Hi Friends! 

I hope you all had a great weekend! If you remember last week’s blog post, I was helping lead the Bloom event for our church this past weekend. What a success-over 400 women came out for a day of fun and living our best lives! We laughed, we cried, and had an absolute blast! Here’s a photo of me and my girlie, making the most of every moment!

Thanks, everyone, for coming out! Can’t wait until next time! : )

If you can’t view the photos on this blog, click here.

In today’s Tuesday’s Treasure, I want to bust the myth that in order to update your home, you must get rid of everything you have in your home and begin with everything new. Sometimes we get bogged down by thinking we have to make huge changes in our homes to create impact and make things more “up to date.” The fact is this way of thinking is just not true. Maybe you are not sure where to begin or how to go about this, but I am here to help!

Here is an easy example of adding little updates to your home. Just like in this photo, you can use every day items to create special moments in any space! This particular inspiration is quick and easy to achieve. In case you missed it, check out the post here.

On a larger scale, making the most of your items is important when achieving updates. In a recent project, I want to share with you how we took one client’s dining table and transformed it into something more updated, giving her dining room a fresh new look!

And here’s the newly updated table! We took the outdated style, sanded and refinished with Valspar’s Sunbleached stain and added a protective clear coat to keep the table protected for years to come!

refinished orange oak table with Valspar Sunbleached

Take a look at this before photo. The style of the table worked fine, but the stain was all wrong and needed a fresh look.

A huge thanks to Eileen for hiring us to do this dining table refinish.

What an beautiful transformation!!

Charming Kitchen Update in Delmar, NY

Hi Friends!

Do you have a kitchen that isn’t bad, but you’re ready for an update? This week’s post is a perfect example of how our kitchen cabinet painting, tiling, and new counters can totally transform a kitchen at a fraction of the cost of a new kitchen.

My weekend was so full, but I have no picture for proof so you’ll have to trust me! I’m helping to lead a really fun, free women’s event at our church this Saturday, and would love to have you join if you’re free! It’s at either noon or 4pm! Register here!

If you’re having trouble viewing the photos on this post, click here.

For this week’s makeover, here are the before photos:

We did a lot of custom carpentry work on this kitchen as well. We changed the shape of the island, and installed a drink cooler. We also removed the upper cabinets to the right of sink, and installed floating shelves instead. The wood tone wasn’t bad, but our client wanted to brighten up the space with painted cabinets.

We painted the main cabinets with the color Benjamin Moore Chantilly Lace and the island was painted with Kendall Charcoal. We also added all new hardware.

If you’d like to see how we paint Kitchen Cabinets, click here to check out our video on YouTube. 

Ready for the after photos?

What an beautiful transformation!!

Best Place to Stay When Visiting Magnolia Market

Hi Friends!

How are you? I hope you’ve been checking out our Instagram and Facebook feed over the last week because I’ve shared some of my Magnolia Market trip. If not, follow along today. I’ll be sharing more throughout the week. I’ve been to Texas many times to check out Joanna Gaines new designs, restaurants, and the other fun surrounding Waco. I believe this was my 7th trip, and I can tell you without a doubt, the best place I’ve stayed is at the Gathering Oaks Retreat Center. The 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom farmhouse that we stayed in is located right next to Chip and Jo’s farmhouse so we could see their farm animals roaming around. We dreamed that Chip and Jo would come up to the fence and say hi (it didn’t happen though – dang it). I’m considering doing ladies Waco Trip for any FunCycled fan in early 2025 and renting out the whole retreat center!! If you’d be interested in learning more about this, and being on the email list for more detailed information, please fill out this form.

Tanya, Sarah, Christy, and Deb (Mom)

We adored our stay in a farmhouse chic, full house with a view of Chip and Jo’s farm!! Check out some of the beautiful rooms in our stay at Gathering Oaks!

It was quiet, clean, styled so beautifully, and oh so fun!!! It’s a 20 minute drive from Waco, but I think it’s WELL WORTH IT to be Chip and Jo’s neighbor for a couple of days.

We, of course, visited Magnolia Home, Press, the Silo Bakery, and Magnolia Market.

I’ve been really excited to check out Ferny’s at Magnolia for the first time! Even though it had a lot less plants than I pictured it having since it’s a plant store, it still had a really cute design.

Since my last visit, Jimmy Don opened a JDH Iron Designs store right across the street from Magnolia Home! Jimmy was so kind! He remembered me and came right over for a big hug, met my friends, and signed every piece that we bought from him!

FunCycled’s Trolley House Flip – Exterior Makeover

Hi Friends!

Thank you for stopping by! I’m an interior designer in upstate NY, but our team also does amazing transformations from kitchen cabinet panting to the details in this flip. Like you’ll see in this post, we do much more than just painting. We bought this old trolley station stop at the end of 2022, filled it, and sold it at the end of 2023. We’ve shown most of the interior makeovers on the blog already for this trolley house flip, but I wanted to stop and show you the exterior work as well.

If you have trouble viewing the photos on this post, click here.

Here’s the exterior of the trolley house before any work was done:

FunCycled Trolley House Flip Before 1
FunCycled Trolley House Flip Before 2
FunCycled Trolley House Flip Before 3

The whole front section of the house (the section without the porch) needed to be ripped off and replaced because the supports were completely rotten, and the ceiling height wasn’t even close to code. We fell through the floor walking through it at closing, and a 6 foot door wouldn’t even fit in the ceiling height of the front room. We ripped it off completely, had a frost barrier concrete wall installed for a foundation support, and then had the structure replaced. One last minute decisions that was a complete game changer for this house was the fact that we decided to peek the roof on the front to match the roof line of the rest of the house. It was originally flat. You can see that better here:

The original footprint staid the same, but the height on the front made it feels so much bigger!

The quote for redoing the porch came in so much higher than we anticipated so we were debating on removing both side portions of the porch to make it one straight porch along the back. We went back and forth on this decision quite a bit, but I really didn’t want to lose the original porch size because that’s so much of the house’s history. People would wait on this porch to catch a ride on the electric trolley car.

So we decided to do the porch work ourselves to keep it in budget and save it! John and our team did such a phenomenal job on this! We couldn’t be happier with how it turned out. Here’s what it looked like mid demo!

FunCycled Trolley House Flip Porch Before

We also found out that this property needed a brand new septic… to the tune of almost 20k! Ouch! So while they were there doing the septic, we asked them to help us pull out the old shrubs and level the land. It made the yard so much nicer (not that you can tell in this photo).

We wanted to keep some of the windows, but they didn’t meet new code so we installed all new windows, but we were able to find the original door that went to the back porch and reinstalled it! So much better than the door that was on the porch area before!

Are you ready for the afters?

Airbnb State Street Design

Hi Friends!

Happy second week of the new year! I’m BEYOND excited to share another airbnb that I designed. This one is so special because of the view alone. It sits right on State Street in Schenectady so the view and how close it sits to all the shops and restaurants makes this destination top tier!

If you’d like to book this Airbnb to check out the design in person, head to my design clients Airbnb page here.

Please click here if you have trouble viewing the photos on this post.

Sadly, I accidentally deleted the before photo for this design. It was simply an empty room filled with construction materials when I first looked at it. We didn’t move any walls or change anything with the layout. It’s the finishes that made all the difference. Here’s the design board that I submitted to the client:

Here are links to some of the products for you:

Bed
Dresser
Comforter Set
Table and Chair Set

One of my favorite design elements in the room is the headboard accent wall. It makes such a dramatic difference adding the accent wood, and it helped make the headboard pop as well!

Check out the finished room!

I wanted to thank Adnan for working with me on this project as well as 4 other Airbnb’s! It’s been such a joy to work with him!

Could your home or airbnb use design help? I’d love to be a part of the project! Please message me today to set up a consult and get the project started!
