 Some say it’s taboo to consider painting and updating antique furniture. But what if “antique” isn’t your style?
I inherited an antique blue console from my dad’s childhood home. As with many old pieces, it was solidly built. However, over the years, the piece aged a bit... And it wasn’t quite my interior design style. This post walks you through my under-an-hour DIY transformational process to what you see today when working with this antique piece including the important considerations when it come to paint.  Find that $5 side table at a garage sale or FREE hutch cabinet at the curb as you walk your dog on trash day that’s not quite your style?
Or did you inherit furniture from a friend or relative that screams colonial style when your home vibe is farmhouse zen? If you are looking for quick furniture flipping ideas or an approach to furniture makeover DIYs in under an hour, you are in the right place!  Have throw pillows that no longer match your style? Or do you like to change the look of a room with seasonal colors and textures?
If you’re like me you don’t have space for storing a bunch of pillows. And we know even those vacuum storage bags become heavy and cumbersome for storing extra pillow. This quick and easy DIY idea allows you to reuse existing throw pillows (and throw pillow inserts) with secure, removable, washable throw pillow covers that withstand everyday tossing and use.  Have that uncomfortable chair with no padding that no one wants to sit in? Or maybe you found a cool-looking chair at a garage sale that’s far from functional.
No cushioning? No problem. Create a comfy, washable, full chair cushion… no sewing required… in under 5 minutes!  Ahh, the change of the seasons…. the weather, our wardrobes. And yes, for many like me, the change of the scents in our homes. So I giddily shopped and purchased new candles…. only to find that I already have some of those exact scents stashed in several places throughout my home. (Ugh!)
Let's end those frustrating scavenger hunts for candles when you need them. Here is a FREE and easy practical organizing method for easy access each change of season (or for that quick housewarming gift)… saving you time and money.  In addition to use of this FREE item for organizing and quick access to your hats, scarves, and gloves, here are five more storage uses for those FREE cardboard wine crates available for the asking at your local grocery store.
(Thanks Trader Joe’s.) And again... thanks Mom for the great idea!  Tired of those annoying scavenger hunts for the right hat or those orphan gloves?
