My $20 yardsale Dining set redone

So I have been looking for a new dining set for a while and I have been searching for a round one that I seen on pinterest. A few months ago a lady has a round table and mismatched chairs for $20! So I was beyond excited. I rounded up my crew and we headed to get it. When I picked it up I have to say it was in awful shape, the table top was worn and had markers and paint on it the chairs smelled funky but good thing I can always see past all that. The dining set has been sitting in our building about two months because I will admit I am awful about starting a project and starting a new one before I am done the Mr hates this so I had to be learn to wait. Finally two weeks ago I finally cleaned it up and took a palm sander to the table top it was ALOT harder than I though it literally took me days and hours to get it to the bare wood. So I used my father in laws palm sander with 110 grit sand paper and then sanded the table legs and chairs. I then primed and painted the table and chairs with spray paint krylon primer and used six cans of krylon ivory satin spray painy for the the chairs and table bottom, I let that dry and added polycrylic. Then I went to Mary Jo's and bought two yards of fabric... p.s. way too much but oh well. I redid the cushions and then used a stain and polycrylic in one a few coats on the top ( be very well ventilated in this step I learned the hard way and got sick). Any who $60 all together for a dining set is alright by me. Until the next project have a great day lovies.

Front porch set. Diy. Thrift store find.

So I found these beautiful detailed chairs at a local thrift store for $2.50 a piece and a beat up table for $4. I am a sucker for junk but I see beyond the look and what it can be. They have now been sitting in my storage room for 3 months I finally painted them the vintage teal color I used on my entertainment center in a previous post and bought some beautiful fabric from Mary Jo's $9 worth. I painted them and reupholstered them added some polycrylic and tada!!! Sadly this is the first project I have sold and I say sadly because I keep everything lol even though I buy it intending to sell it but I have to make the hubby happy too. Happy Thursday. More projects coming I scored a beautiful dining set for $20 I am about to redo and keep :) I will post it step for step soon. Thanks for reading. Xo Savannah

Vintage Potato holder revamped

So as I am browsing through my local goodwill this vintage potato holder catches my eye. Of course not many people can see the beauty in things but I can always look at something and see the after. Best part of this story I only paid $3.99 and had a can of blue lagoon spray paint in satin I have been wanting to use. So I cleaned it really well , lightly sanded and it was ready for spray painting. After two coats of paint I then put tape in rows over the heart to create the stripes added some grey acrylic paint and polycrylic and there ya go a beautiful potatoe holder. Can be used for laundry or just a conversation piece. Happy Monday funday.

Painted entertainment center and matching end tables

So I have this brown entertainment center I purchased at Walmart about four years ago. It was maybe two hundred dollars nothing to fancy. It had a huge hutch piece on it that I asked my hubby to remove ( wish I had a previous pic). I also had a set of end tables given to me by my mother in law about ten years ago they were cherry wood and I painted them grey a while back but just wasn't feeling the color so I changed them to. Well I for one love to be different and just get tired of brown and tan and I am slowly adding color where ever I can. So I decided to finally paint my tv stand and end tables. All I did was remove any hardware,  sand with 60 grit sand paper,  wood fill any holes or inperfections, wipe down with a damp cloth, prime with kiltz primer, add three coats of Vintage teal paint (will post a picture), two coats of polycrylic.... tada newly painted furniture... it did take me hours upon hours for all the coating. Oh and I always only use a purdy brush. Happy diy Saturday.

Redone Red Entry table

Happy weekend yall. Yay for the weekend. Well my weekly project was to look for a cheap entry table. I have been wanting a pretty entry table for months. So I actually have a good friend who knows I love redoing furniture so they gave me this table as a gift. I love different pieces I am not a brown and tan house kind of person gag....boring. So I have repainted my dining room red and had paint left over and used that. I first took off the hardware, then used kiltz primer, then two coats of red later and two coats of polycrylic I am done. Simply easy diy. No sanding on this one. Enjoy. Oh and new hardware. 

Painted Kitchen Cabinets. Diy $75

Hey yall. A few weeks ago I finally broke down and painted my 1960s oak kitchen cabinets. I used a sage wall paint that I already owned in eggshall. Well first I painted the cabinets white, I always wanted white cabinets but once I did it just didnt go well in my kitchen.  So I had been looking on pinterest and I really liked the green cabinets I have been seeing. So I just went for it. I first removed all the old knobs, I then cleaned them very good with warm water and dish soap,  then I sanded them and wiped them down again.  Next I primed the cabinets. Then I painted about three coats of the green hours in between coats (I kept the doors on ...it would have been easier if I would have taken them off but you can't tell me nothing) I used a paint brush for the base of the cabinets and hinge area and a cabinet door roller for the cabinet doors. After that I took a tiny craft paint brush and painted around the hinges again for a good cover. I then added about four coats of polycrylic to the cabinets and it protects the paint as well as gives them a good shine. I posted the original knobs on ebay and sold them and used that money for the the new hardware I also found on ebay. Brushed nickel hardware at lowes or a hardware store was going to cost over $100 and I got mine on ebay for $50 score!! I am happy with my cabinets and found it super easy and cheap. The color I used is Valspar 4000 latex paint eggshell and its called Autumn Grey but its a sage color. Kiltz latex primer and polycrylic all purchased from lowes. It would cost about $75 to do it with all the supplies. Any questions let me know. Happy Monday yall. I need to get my housewife duties done. :)
