what I am doing today...


Today...

I hope to perform a miracle...



using a little primer,

a little white paint,

a few snippets of chicken wire,

and bit of linen fabric...





I cannot believe someone took a gorgeous turn of the century oak china cabinet...

painted it an awful olive green...(trust me, it is so much worse in person!)

gave it an antique wash...

and then took out what was probably original old wavy glass...

to add green plastic to the doors and sides!!

Seriously??

Ooohhhh....the 1970s were a terrible time for home decor...I am so glad I was able to rescue this beauty at an auction this past weekend.

~ Just another day in the life of a girl that paints furniture ~

I can't wait to show you her transformation later this week!

Stay tuned!
