painted furniture

This fun pic from BHG has inspired me to work 

on a couple of painted furniture projects this weekend. 

The first is my hall tree that's similar 

to this one shown above. 

I have had one in my entry forever 

that was painted dark green. 

It belonged to my husband's Nana, 

and we really treasure it and 

use it everyday to hang our hats, 

jackets and dog leashes.  

Our first project for the weekend, 

transforming the hall tree into 

something really fun! 

So, I headed to Peinture Studios to get some 

Annie Sloan Chalk Paint. 

I've decided on a mixture of 

Florence and Provence.

It was the perfect color combo, 

and the small sample sizes were just right. 

Here's some of the inspiration 

from pinterest that got me going... 

This perfectly gorgeous turqouise, teal dresser 

featured on Mary Ann's blog 

Classic Casual Home. 

An assortment of fun chairs from Cup of Te.

A sweet little gray desk with 

pop of coral from Miss Mustard Seed.

Minty fresh green chairs from the Glitter Guide.

The perfect green accent via Coco Cozy.

Everything Turquoise featured this traditional style bed.

Tobi Fairley does black and white.   

This faux bamboo mirror 

is updated in my favorite color.

I love how the chartreuse stools 

tie in with the artwork 

in this kitchen by 

Lisa Sherry Interieurs. 

 Ombre done right by Gus and Lula.

This bar set up comes alive on 

top of this painted antique piece. 

Pretty antique white finish by Ethan Allen.

I really love the amazing color samples at Peinture.  

The chairs on the wall are such a fun idea!

p.s. Here’s our other project.

The kitchen table is in the middle of being

 painted in Old White. 

Mr. Ciao is helping me with this one!
