Simple Polka Dot Chair Makeover - She used Velvet Finishes to paint the chair and upholstery! So adorable and very Kate Spade inspired!

When in doubt…go polka dots.

I’m ashamed to tell you how long I’ve had this chair sitting in the garage ready to be made over. I’ll say it’s been the better part of a year at the least. It was one of those purchases that went like this:

It’s $10! I can’t pass it up for $10!

But you don’t need it Jenna.

I know that. But it’s $10!!!

You don’t need it.

$10.

Make a smart decision, Jenna.

Ok. I’m buying it.

Said conversation was between myself and myself of course.

So since I really had no clue what to do with it or where I would put it, it just sat for a while. And then one day, I got a wild hair and decided I would attempt to paint the upholstery on this piece rather than re-upholstering it since I’d never tried painting it before. I only had $10 to lose. Here’s how it turned out…

Gorgeous rich color! And no priming required with this paint! Glamorous Dresser Makeover

Glamorous Dresser Makeover

January 29, 2015 By Jenna 178 Comments

Have I told you that my dad claims the title of “Rain on a Tin Roof Middle Tennessee Marketing Manager?”

I’m not kidding.

He even signs his emails to me that way.

And he hangs my business cards at the post office.

And tells all his friends about me.

And the people he works with.

I’m sure they loathe me by now.

One of his co-workers, Shannon, (who is forced to work right beside him – poor girl), offered me a dresser she had in her garage. Thanks, Shannon!

Seeing as I never turn down free furniture, I went and picked it up.

In my not-so-big SUV.

With my dad, the kid, and Will.

That was a tight squeeze fun ride home.

It was well worth it though for this glamorous dresser makeover.

A Pink Ceiling with Faux Moldings

September 9, 2014 By Jenna 99 Comments

Every time I visit the paint counter, the paint guy rolls his eyes at me.

He is shocked not when I hand him a mint green or bright pink paint swatch, but a white, black or cream colored swatch.

He has grown accustomed to me selecting not-so-average paint colors.

A couple months ago when I walked in with my Glidden Watermelon Smoothie paint card and handed it to him, he just shook his head.

When I told him it was going on the ceiling, I think he almost laughed.

Heck, I laughed.

This is one of my craziest ideas to date and I wasn’t 100% sure it was going to work out.

It ended up being the spark of the entire Preppy meets Hollywood Regency Bathroom Makeover.

Oh, the power of a pink ceiling.

With pretty white faux molding.
