Furniture Makeovers
Pretty in Pink
Vintage Dresser
Pink and Dark Glaze Vintage Makeover: I've seen so many gorgeous pink painted pieces that I had to have a go! I bought this little console table as I liked the detailing on the drawers and the cute castors.....

Blue & Gold Dresser
Dark Dresser gets a Regal Makeover: Now I know I might sound a little mad looking for a dresser unit to go on my balcony , but I say furniture can live outdoors as well as indoors! To be fair to me, the balcony is big...
Mirror Mirror
Crackle Glaze Makeover:
Just to introduce you to this now gorgeous mirror. It was originally part of a large chest of drawers that I wanted to use as a dining buffet for our large balcony, so I removed the mirror...
Sleek Layered Blue with Gold Hardware:
This old TV unit was too good to pass by, not because it was particularly attractive, but it was in good condition, a nice size (not too big, not too small) and it was cheap!
Industrial Bookshelves
DIY Pallet Wood and Steel Bookshelves: While renovating our house we had lots of different things delivered on pallets: sand, tiles, gravel, etc. so it was inevitable we'd end up doing something with all that lovely wood!

Embellished Footstool
Video: Faded Footstool Makeover

Gorgeous Vintage Green Makeover
This cute telephone table has been given a gorgeous vintage green makeover, with lots of detailing, ready for it's new home in our hallway. I used chalk paint, dry brushing, stenciling and decoupage to give this table lots of pop!
Dresser Makeover
Garage Gremlin to Delightful Dresser: When we first moved into our house in Italy we had hardly any furniture - our van we drove over from the UK was groaning with stuff and 3 cats in giant pet cages but very little furniture...
Console Table
Cute Console Table with Castors:
I found this cute little console table at my local Mercato Usato recently; it was €20 and buried under a lot of other random stuff so I almost missed it...
Chair Makeover
From old Chair to Garden Planter:
This old woven chair has been sitting in my garage for several months after we realised it was broken and unusable as a chair anymore. Being a lover of used and old things...
