Paint is like lipstick for your furniture LOL

First of all it is FRIDAY people !!!! WHEW HEW and TGIF should stand for Thank God I am fabulous LOL (HEY toot your own HORN ..It's okay ) …

ON a serious PAINT note…. Me and My sweet sister have been painting at her house. .. She has decided to spruce it up a bit. Paint really is like Lipstick to your furniture. A little paint makes the world of difference. PLUS This Rusty Pearl has not painted in awhile ….SO it felt good to hold that brush !!!

 Here is a little of the Before . The fireplace was my project


She has had this house for 20 years.. SO she wanted to freshen things up !!


Here is the after 


She has new beautiful furniture to go with it 

Then she and my niece hit the walls with that beautiful sea foam green color. 


That is my sister ..hard at it 

Thing that happened The extra gallon of paint …DIDNT MATCH
Lowes did the right thing and gave her new paint.

BUT BROOKLYN my niece had to paint the walls over again 
She is a senior in high school and when I say she did a professional job 
I mean it.. OMGOODNESS turned out fabulous 


That is our super painter !!!

Here is the finished job she did 


The best thing was hanging with family. 

My little Niece played all day with her fancy purse I gave to her 

Have to brag isn't she the cutest ever !!!



She keeps her coupons and her sea shells I gave her in there …. Love that bundle of cuteness
Now Last night I was driving home and this was on the CURB.. HELLO
I see it as a rusty pearl my friends.. I am going to paint it like Pottery BARN .. I think its a diamond in the SOLID OAK  rough ..


                                                    Hey that is what I call FREE 90 FREE

And I will close with this ..Spread positive vibes today . SHOW love to everyone and be kind.

GOD bless you all .. Love Sherry (thanks for spending some of your day with me )

  3. Bless your heart...you are the cutest thing !! I love coming over to visit...you make us all feel good. :)
    Love that fireplace...and the sea green walls....ummmmm ....If I wasn't such a sissy, I would have painted my bedroom TURQUOISE (fav color) but ended up with a soft beige and using MY COLOR in pillows and etc.
    And, yep...that sweet girl is a cutie.

  10. YES! YES! WHite is the way to go. I think natural wood is lovely, but white interiors are always much more cozy to me, that's just my opinion! But you are right my friend, painting furniture is like putting on lipstick; it makes a world of difference! HUGS! Anita
