Hi Friends!
How was your Christmas? We had a house full! This year, having the new house, we had room for my big family and hosted Christmas. It was the best.
I loved filling both tables with people I adore, setting the table with my great aunt’s fine china, singing Christmas carols around the piano, and listening to all of the kiddos take turns reading the Christmas Story from the Bible. It was such a beautiful day and my heart was full – this is what the spirit of Christmas and home means to me.
I hope that even if your home wasn’t filled with people or family wasn’t nearby, that your heart was full of joy and you were able to reflect on all the blessings 2015 has brought. Sometimes even the hard things in life can be blessings in disguise.
If you missed it, Fresh American Style featured an interview with us last week. You can read it right here.
Moving on to furniture as usual… This week’s makeover is brand new and it’s also for sale!! It was actually a desk and we had a mirror that would work perfectly for it!
Here are the two pieces before we started painting:
We painted this vanity using Benjamin Moore’s color Simply White. If you’d like to see how we paint furniture, check out our How to Paint Furniture post. We painted the top a dark charcoal gray and glazed everything. To add a little bit of pizazz to the piece, we went with glass hardware. Oh how it sparkles!
This vanity is for sale right now! We just brought it into the store last week. If you’d like to purchase it, please use our Contact Us form or stop by our store at 272 River Street, Troy, NY. I also added quite a few other new pieces to the store!
