    I agree with you, spray painting sucks! I always start super inspired and then the hubs has to take over (it hurts my fingers)! LOL

    I would get the pink paint too. I can't wait to see the final result. It will look great!

  22. LindsB says:

    LOVE LOVE LOVE the new look of the chairs!! See, sewing is not that hard…well except when the damn thing stops working on you, thats annoying.

    I have to say, the pink is the way to go- sorry Jon. I dont even have to see the Pebble color to know that the pink rocks and all 4 chairs should be pink 🙂

    I LOVE an almost free project, way to go!!

  23. Freckles Chick says:

    If these don't say summer then I don't know what does. I LOVE how the snappy stripes play off the sweet pale pink! Lovely work, C!

  24. Eli says:

    Awesome!! They look great and so summery. Ready to be used while sipping lemonade 🙂

  25. mrosev14 says:

    That is oh so beautiful! I didn't even think about getting fabric from Ikea, great call. I think I'll look there for my other projects.

  26. Mrs. Limestone says:

    Great idea! I didn't even realize Ikea sold outdoor upholstery fabric. As if I needed another reason to go there?

    PS: A women posting as Lisa links to your blog as her own. Weird.

ON THE BLOG

My living room is one of the rooms that evolved drastically from when we first moved one. Originally I painted the walls chocolate brown and did accents of white, blue and orange. That lasted maybe 2 years.

Our dining room sat empty for months. Okay maybe it was empty for just a handful of weeks and then we couldn’t take it anymore and put in a folding table and plastic outdoor chairs, but in my mind that was still empty.

On the main floor of our house we have a Florida room. Being that it’s a Florida room it is a considered a 3 season room, because there is no heat in the room. The previous owners used it as an indoor patio with outdoor furniture and it looked like this when we moved in.

Fall is the perfect season to host an outdoor movie night in your backyard! It’s that time of year when outdoor furniture is still outside and it gets dark earlier than the summer which means your little kiddos can enjoy the movie night as well. It’s so nice to transform your backyard with cozy blankets, […]

round up of budget friendly bar carts

Can you believe it’s already November? Before we know it Thanks No. 1 Modern bar cart with patterned sides that looks great as is, but would also look amazing painted a pop of color! Plus it’s only $157. No. 2 This lucite bar cart is a personal favorite of mine. Look at those chic lines! […]

For the longest time our backyard was mainly just grass and a little small area where we laid down some pavers so that we could set out a little plastic table/chairs during the summer. Not exactly ideal for entertaining. For the past couple of years we have wanted to build a deck and enjoy the […]
