Lady in teal... is dancing with me. Cheek to cheek. Seems appropriate for this makeover... a retro design cheek to cheek with a fancy little lady in teal. We have been busy... a word that seems like an understatement. We…

It's been a great week here at our house. The best kind of week! Some may want their kids to be rich and live a care free life, others want them to be cute, popular and good in sports. I…

Hi Friends! Summer colds... that's the banner that we're raising this week and it may not be a banner... it may be the red flag of defeat.  Why does it seem like summer colds never end? That being said, a…

Hi Friends, It's been a SUUPER busy week here so I'm keeping things simple on today's Tuesday's Treasures. Even though purple is my least favorite choice on the color wheel, when Stephanie reached out to us asking to bring some of…

Some of you may look at a dresser like this week's Tuesday's Treasures and think it needs to be sent to the curb. Sometimes I think that, too, but in this case I knew that this could be beautiful!! I've…

Hi Friends! Did you have a nice week? If you're in upstate NY like me, you're probably saying yes it was an awesome week!! Why? Because we finally had some warm weather and were able to enjoy the sun. Trying…

One of the top asked questions that people email me about is how to make chalk paint. So today's the day to explain! Let's talk about chalk paint, shall we? Not chalkboard paint that you can write on with chalk,…

Happy Tuesday's Treasures everyone! Thanks so much for stopping by to check out one of my favorite new dresser designs! Before we start all that, I know you were hoping for an update about our week here, right? :) We…

How are you all doing? Despite ANOTHER snow storm here in NY, the temps have made there way up a bit so we all feel like there may be hope that spring is going to come after all. And something…

Hi Friends! Last week was school break and I remember two things... How much I love hanging with my kids during the day AND how hard it is to get everything done when the kids are home. I had so…

Hi Friends! Thanks to everyone who stopped by last week to check out our Broken Down Black Buffet makeover. This week's makeover wasn't as hard, but it came from the same owner... Linda, and it too needed work. I think…

Happy New Year's Eve!! One of the things I look forward to each year is putting together the furniture pieces that had the most page views this year. Some surprised and there were others that I wondered why they didn't…

Hi Friend!! I hope you all had a family or friend filled Thanksgiving day. Ours was definitely that with 14 members of my family around the dinner table. The more families I meet, the more thankful I am for mine.…

Happy Tuesday everyone!! We're all about change here at FunCycled... making the old new again with repair, color or classic styles. Sometimes I look at a piece and think that's not too bad looking. Should I change it?? But then…

Hi Friends! If you're one of our Facebook fans, you'll see that I've been a little MIA this week. I've been fighting a nasty cold. It's still going strong over 10 days later. I'm going to give in and medicate soon,…

Hi All! I'm enjoying some family time this week before school starts next week. That means I'm keeping today's Tuesday's Treasures on the kind of short and sweet side. :) I loved the lines and quality workmanship with this piece.…

What's a gold dipped piece of furniture?? Well, it's just what is sounds like. A piece of furniture that looks dipped in gold. Dipped furniture is so "in" right now. It doesn't just have to be gold, but I want…

Good morning friends! Last week was insane here... insane on so many levels. The furniture projects were some of my favorites in a while. I was able to work with fun colors including orange, yellow, vintage teal, exotic lime, and…

Another Tuesday's Treasures today? What!! We've had so many fun pieces and I am having a hard time narowing everything down to just one piece a week. This cute little cabinet was given to us when we went to buy…

Hi! How has your week been? So many people have asked me how everything has been going with John quitting his job to join  me at FunCycled. Since I don't get as much time as I'd like to to chat…
