The Bold And The Beautiful Furniture Makeovers

Yes, I did try to make that title sound like a soap opera on purpose.

Why?

Because these furniture makeovers deserve a title that is just as dramatic as they are.

Because they are bold and beautiful.

The Bold and The Beautiful Furniture Makeovers

Add a punch of color to your headboard.

Bold and Beautiful Furniture Makeovers: Headboard Makeovers / Bed Makeovers / Painted Headboard

Of course its no surprise that I would be quite smitten with that kelly green headboard from Jesse Coulter. Adding that hispanic vibe blanket on top is giving me some serious inspiration. And then there’s the red. Red is becoming a new favorite of mine as well. Makely Home knocked it out of the park with that color choice. Both of the headboards’ nooks and crannies were no match for the HomeRight Finish Max!

Shades of Pink & Orange

Bold and Beautiful Furniture Makeovers: Pastel Furniture Makeovers / Pink Furniture Makeovers

I have no idea how Cuckoo for Design came up with such an amazing color combination for that midcentury modern dresser makeover, but its gorgeous. And while I’m not a huge fan of “little girl pink,” it definitely pairs well with gold hardware and a pop of pattern like the night stand makeover that 11 Magnolia Lane pulled off.

When in doubt, black will never fail you.

Bold and Beautiful Furniture Makeovers: Black Furniture Makeovers / Black and Gold / Black and Leopard Print

Leopard Print Upholstery and Faux Black Bamboo. I die. This chair makeover from The Gathered Home has me drooling. Black + Gold will never fail you either. I gave this french country desk a modern, yet still classic makeover with my Finish Max paint sprayer.

Go Aqua-licous

Bold and Beautiful Furniture Makeovers: Aqua Furniture Makeovers The Shabby Creek Cottage gave her wood cabinet not only an aqua treatment, but also turned it into a great beverage center. Delicious and DIY gave her coffee table a super fun makeover, topped off with some gold stenciling details.

Shades of Yellow

Bold and Beautiful Furniture Makeovers: Yellow Furniture Makeovers / DIY Console Table / Mustard Furniture Makeovers

Not only do I love the yellow shade that The Hunted Interior used for her console table, but I also love the fact that she made it – I totally want my own. Pneumatic Addict used a Finish Max Pro to complete her black and yellow dresser makeover.

Bold Pink Furniture Makeovers

Bold and Beautiful Furniture Makeovers: Bold Pink Furniture Makeovers / Dresser Makeover / Chair Makeover / Houndstooth Upholstery / Coral Dresser Makeover

A good, bright, coral pink paired with gold never gets old. The Chronicles of Home updated this dresser with the perfect amount of gold detailing. And then there’s my bright pink chair paired with a classic houndstooth upholstery. Honestly, halfway through that makeover, I was a little worried, but I love the contrast in color and pattern.

    I have a dirty brown color dresser, chest & nightstand with dark brown handles that is crying for a makeover. It is really horrendous looking. I want to paint it a shiny black with new gold handles. I used to have a black bedroom set & I loved it. Now thanks to your fabulous tutorials for makeovers I can have a black set again without having to go in debt for it. Thank you Jenna for the terrific idea! Thank you for the giveaway & the chance to win. God Bless.

    Bold. I’m buying a hutch that fills a whole wall and it will need painting. I’m going either colorful and very dark, depends, after I have it here for a bit. The lady can’t find the key to the glass-front tops, I don’t care I’ll deal with the locks I have a retired locksmith blocks away or I’ll just remove the glass and have open shelves. I mostly bought it for the bottoms, four cabinet/cupboard-size bottoms, three-piece glass tops …. 82″H x 80″ wide for $75. The possibilities are huge.

    I have been dying to paint a glass display case that I have for my late daughter. I use it to display her photos along with my late mother and some very precious trinkets that they both bought for me before they passed away. She loved Pink with Brown Polka Dots and I just haven’t been able to bring my self to paint it. I think painting it by hand would be much harder than if I had a sprayer. Less time consuming and not as emotional straining for me.

    I’m seriously looking at my home’s exterior! And I’m sure the spare bedroom furniture would love to be painted too!
