Very nice, thanks for sharing.

Jenny said...

I love the makeover you created. You really showed what can be achieved on a budget with a real wow factor. I love the colours you used and the console looked amazing. Nice work. ;-)

Amazing room! As always, great use of color. Love the easel!

My Crafty Home-Life said...

You continue to challenge my creativity! Do you know what brand paint and sheen (gloss/semi?) is used on the credenza? I am assuming that it is not spray paint.

jandjhome said...

How exciting. You did an amazing job, as always. I love the dresser. The color is perfect.

De tout, de rien said...

Love it! The easel is totally inspired and I love its teal colour. I also love the two-toned pillows. The whole thing is beautifully accessorized. And I may try the tip about covering the blind with fabric!

Dina said...

I loved the credenza makeover of course but I was completely enamored with the smaller pillows on the chairs. I LOVE that fabric. Would you mind sharing the resource?

LocalCeleb said...

Entering this room would change the worst mood to pleasure. Amazing color display!

Joi said...

I loved it! My fav parts were the polka dot and floral fabrics!

Karen@StrictlySimpleStyle said...

Loved the coral console with the black interior. It's gorgeous and a great space for her to store a ton of things.

@ My Crafty Home:
The paint is a mixture of a little bit of this and a little bit of that. Was in the lab (workshop) mixing up pinks and reds to get the right color. Im sure there is a nice coral color from a number of paint lines.

@Dina:
No sources really for the fabrics. Purchased a number of remnants and kinda went with it. Im sure a day at your local fabric store will yield some great fabrics as well.

Thanks everyone for watching, viewing and commenting.

for sure that orange console! i'm guessing you updated the hardware and changed the color to that stunning orange - never see enough orange it doesn't seem to be a popular color but i LOVE it! (my car is orange!) the 2nd favorite item are the green striped pillows - great job as always! love what you do! and one of these days.. think i'll call on your services (we're looking for a new home now)

barbara@hodge:podge said...

I LOVE what you did. You have such a fabulous personality, I can see why they ask you back. BTW: LOVE your outfits!

Decor & Harmony @ 4290 said...

When is the season premiere for your own show? You have an amazing sense of style and such an eye for color, you go where no man has gone before. Plaid, stripes, polka dots and coral who would have thought the space is really incredible. I need to become just a little bolder. In other words "I need to get my Rashon on."

I love the shopping experience. I love the thrift store...i even went to one on my birthday! I was wondering if you could include an occasional tutorial for some of your projects: lampshades, for example. I am trying to help my daughter who is decorating her home on a tight budget. I bought fabric for a shade and there are commercial shades out there with a sticky side. They are about $40. That seemed too much. I bought a stripe fabric in her colors which she loves with a discount coupon. I just bought two shades last weekend and had them trimmed to fit the window. I am interested in any advice, tips, techniques for putting the fabric on the shades. Is there a particular spray adhesive product you used? I can't wait to get this done! did you shorten your store bought shade? Would love some help before this weekend. Love ALL your make overs. Eileen

Mimi said...

Love that orange console. I see these kinds of pieces in thrift shops all the time. So that's what we should be doing with them!

Sandra said...

I have an antique console like the orange one you refinished and wanted to thank you for giving me inspiration.

You were so freaking cute on the Nate Berkus Show! :) Aside from that, you are oh so very talented and the job was GORGTASTIC!!

I loved the show!!! I liked the part when you walked into the Salvation Army and the music started playing..I get that feeling too when I go thrifting. Your choice of color is impeccable. And to turn that old buffet/dresser around and make it into something modern and fresh was ingenious. So when are you getting your own show :) , I'm defintely a fan can't wait to see what you will create next.

Sweetheart said...

I love the unique tv stand and console! Wow..what very creative,bright and refreshing makeover.

Sweetheart said...

Also,was the coffee table a thrift find? I love that it has a top and bottom to display accessories.

Angela said...

Cute room! I love the orange console too :)

Kelle Dame said...

Lisa - A Room with A View said...

An amazing project. The coral console is quite a statement piece and I love the black interior. Something different was the easel used as a tv stand..great idea. Overall, I loved that you mixed different colors and patterns and tied them all together so effectively.

theLENNOXX said...

Oh, and your mom must of been a baby when she had you, she looks amazing! I couldn't believe it when I saw how old she was...she is my age! I need to know her secrets to staying young.
