Shabby-chic Projects

Recommended Posts

So here's a few little projects I have done recently.

 

I don't have before and after pictures of them all - but I really enjoy doing them.

 

Side-stand.

Phone-bench. I need to finish this one by re-upholstering the seat.

A china cabinet. Not as bright pink as it looks in the pictures, and is intact more of a peachy colour that I mixed up! This one does have some 'before' and 'in progress' pictures. I just need to finish the sand-down and then reattach the door and shelves.

Next week I am going to start working on a few sideboards and a wardrobe. I am also going to re-do a coffee table - hopefully in a nice funky colour to make it pop. Now I just have to hope someone buys it all. :lol:

Will you use it for more DVD space :wink:

 

What you see there is about a quarter of our DVDs. When the house gets re-done we're turning that wall into a floor to ceiling custom unit. We have about 1,200 DVDs, and about 6,000 CDs between us.

 

We're big movie and music fans! :lol:

Andy roo or anyone HELP I have a much loved oak dresser which didn't fit in our new kitchen. Rather than get rid of it it has been rehomed in the bathroom.Having just decorated bathroom the dresser looked very out of place so I decided to chalk paint it white intending to shabby it when finished. I went to Homebase and they didn't have Annie Sloan so got Rust oleum chalk furniture paint. I have started and painted the top section and it looks absolutely awful, very streaky and just terrible. It said in shop one coat was enough. Has anyone used this paint? Is it as good as AS.?
