Project Update ~ A Productive Weekend!

Good Monday morning!

Do you guys remember when I found this cabinet on Craigslist, and 

showed you my favorite pricey Ebanista piece I was hoping to DIY? 

Well...I'm not quite finished, but I made a big dent over the weekend, I was on a

 roll with the gold Rub 'n Buff!  

I haven't mentioned this client project yet, but we've revamped her entry,

 powder room, dining room and family room. We purchased this new bench

for seating at her dining room table, and I recovered it for her with this fun polka

 dot fabric. I was so excited to change out the original brown leather I totally

forgot to take a before pic, but you can see the retailer's photo below.

 And, I tried it out in my living room before loading it up! :)     

Antique Rustic Bench

Have the best week, friends!

So excited about this DIY!!

Hey everyone, hope you had a nice weekend!

We had a wonderful time celebrating all the awesome fathers in our family with

 brunch at my parent's. It was a 99 degree scorcher in Denver, lounging and switching

 between golf and a car auction were the activities of choice (by the men)!

Do you remember this inspiration photo for the One Room Challenge Great Room

I just completed? I mentioned how much I LOVED the $$$ Saville cabinet from

 Ebanista. I hadn't thought about it, but a few of you encouraged me to DIY one. 

Well...the perfect cabinet popped up on Craigslist!          

  

If you use your imagination you can see how I could come up with something

similar, right?   

Here are some closeups of the painted detail.

  I'm hoping I can replicate the hand painted appearance of the 22K gold they use! 

Keep your fingers crossed for me, and I'll keep you updated.
