Trash to Treasure!



Check out this refurbished dresser from Classy Clutter!

Now technically I wouldn't call this piece trash, that's way too harsh - more like ordinary or average.  It is a beautiful old dresser though with it's curvy lines and solid wood construction.


But check out the Extraordinary After...
Ahhh, a plain jane dresser gets new life with paint and stain...love the color combination here.  And the hardware even got a coat of oil rubbed bronze spray paint.

Give Classy Clutter a shout...you might just be inspired to revamp something "ordinary" in your home!

Beautiful Wall Art Gallery!



Today I am swooning over this Diy Intaglio Wall Art Gallery from Interior Design Musings!  

I know, I know...your thinking "what the heck are intaglios?"  In fact, that's exactly what I thought.  Intaglios are simply plaster cameos...very cool! These Intaglios were purchased on Ebay at a great price, compared to retail.  The frames are driftwood frames from Hobby Lobby. I love how the lines of the frames are clean and modern, but the wood is rustic and distressed. 

Wall galleries provide texture and symmetry, as well as a fabulous focal point. Amazing, but this gallery below looks like something you'd see in Horchow for no less than $500.  But the talented gal from Interior Design Musings created hers for a whole lot less! 

Click here for the tutorial on how to create this beautiful wall gallery below.
