A Year Ago Today…

Posted on February 16, 2018 by thatskinnytallgirl

A year ago today, I thought my world was crashing in on me. A year ago today, something I thought I was meant to do was taken from me. A year ago today, I was heartbroken, angry, confused, bitter. A year ago today, I learned who was REALLY there for me and who would have … Continue reading A Year Ago Today…

Y’all gotta swipe to see what I did! . So, some of you know about the transformation I did on my nightstands. They were gifted to us and definitely NOT our style. . I did like I always do and turned to Pinterest for inspiration. BUT, even after following the inspiration’s directions to a T (including colors), I’ve never been thrilled with the result. (Turns out no one else was either, but they didn’t wanna hurt my feelings). . So, if you swipe, you’ll see my LATEST transformation...this time it was my own inspiration and I love It!!! . I just realized the handles are wonky...gonna straighten those out right now! . Please tell me y’all like the chippy version best! Lol . #fusionmineralpaint #thatskinnytallgirl #diy #fauxfinish #repurposedfurniture #doover #chippy #farmhousestyle #swipe

Until then...happy Friday friends! . #thatskinnytallgirl #repurposed #diy #farmhousestyle #farmhousechristmas #fiveandunderfriday #recycle #insta #pinterest #blogger #crafter #cozy #mantledecor #instagood #instapic
It’s amazing what a change in a rug can do! Swipe for the BIG pic. . I ordered this amazing rug from @nourison and it’s shades of navy/black/creams all go perfectly with the vision I have in mind for our little dining nook. . It’s an odd shaped “dining room” that is also a pass through to a wing of the house, as well as it’s open to the entryway. I’m still in search of the perfect settee to complete the space, some curtains and a perfect light fixture. But, for now I’m loving my rug! This is the Grafix area rug in navy/black, and I purchased the 5x7. . #thatskinnytallgirl #nourison #rug #farmhousechristmas #farmhousestyle #gingham #fusionmineralpaint #offerupfinds #facebookfinds #oldisnew #repurposedfurniture #diy #hobbylobby #decorsteals #fiveandunderfriday #cottonstemheartsmerry
Sometimes the littlest, simplest things make the biggest statement. . I love these vintage looking boxes from @decorsteal. They look so cute stacked up with some greenery, some cotton stems and a little lantern from @IKEA. . #thatskinnytallgirl #diy #decorsteal #ikea #hobbylobby #insta #instagood #instapic #farmhouse #vintage #fiveandunderfriday
Faux what?!!! . So I’ve searched EVERYWHERE for affordable old shutters for a project I’m doing, but it seems people know they’re in demand so they want $$$. . This momma wants deals! So...I used my imagination, my trusty fusion mineral paint and some elbow grease to turn black plastic shutters into faux wooden old shutters. . Sadly, the pics don’t do them justice. I’m so thrilled with the end result. . I started by dry brushing them with Glidden Chalk paint in Wooden Boots brown. (Not gonna lie, the baby poop brown scared me at first). Then, the next day I dry brushed using Fusion Mineral Paint Champlain. (I already had this from another project, and honestly, if you don’t have this in your paint supply you should). Then, I used some fine grit sandpaper to scuff them up a bit. (Brought out the browns and blacks). . I can’t wait for y’all to see my finished project they’ll be used for. . #thatskinnytallgirl #fauxfinish #shutters #fusionmineralpaint #gliddenpaint #diy #farmhouse #project
