Hi -ers! I'm Shannon from Burlap in addition to Lace. I'm in addition to then excited to move posting hither on Virginia's blog! I dear her, in addition to her beautiful home. She's basically my spirit animal, which is a lot coming from a crazy truthful cat lady. It's almost similar nosotros portion the same mind. I'm non certain if that's cool or scary. We'll become amongst cool. :) Anyway, Virginia asked me to portion my half dozen favorite projects every bit a component of her Wednesday 6 series! So hither nosotros go!
(ahem...Virginia speaking. Tomorrow is my 30th birthday. I've never been anyone's spirit animate existence before, in addition to I volition accept this every bit a sign that my thirties are gonna move awesome. Thank you, Shannon. Continue on...Sorry for the interruption.)
First upwardly is my TV Gallery Wall. I only collected frames from yard sales, thrift stores, in addition to IKEA to create a large focal betoken to surroundings the TV. I figured that a TV is inevitable (if my married adult man has anything to nation close it), in addition to then I powerfulness every bit good endeavor to become far blend inwards amongst a gallery wall! I exclusively had 2 rules when it came to creating this bad boy. #1: I stuck amongst silver, gold, black, or white frames in addition to #2: I exclusively framed things that I absolutely loved! I don't believe inwards color coordinating fine art on the wall. Find what you lot dear in addition to display it! I also painted the feet gold on an quondam dresser to brand a TV console. You gotta move amongst whatcha got!
(Pardon....it's me again. I only desire to allow ya'll know that Shannon's gallery wall & gilt dipped footsies create got sent me downwardly a wormhole of inspiration. Ya'll know I dear a gallery wall. And also, I'm pretty certain that's the same dresser that's inwards my bedroom. How real delightful. I hope to move placidity now.)
My 2d favorite projection is my DIY Spotted Art. I dear to paint, in addition to I dear this spotted designing that has been popping upwardly everywhere, in addition to then I created my own! I only spray painted some inexpensive poster frames gold, in addition to popped the fine art inwards them without a mat. They brand a huge disceptation without existence also bold! One of my favorite places inwards my solid is my bar cart. I would nation that it was my favorite place, but that would brand me audio similar a lush. :) This fine art makes the whole infinite a trivial prettier! It's in addition to then tardily to create your ain fine art to relieve coin in addition to to move creative. I did it inwards my living room, too!
One of the easiest projects I've ever done is my DIY Pantone Paint Chip Memo Board. I gathered some Pantone pigment chips inwards pinkish shades, in addition to used double sided record to adhere them to white paper. Then I popped it inwards a frame, in addition to wrote on the drinking glass amongst a white erase marker! I usage it to write downwardly my goals for the week, but you lot could usage it every bit a calendar, a bill of fare planner, or fifty-fifty a grocery list. So in addition to then easy, in addition to it exclusively cost me $4!
One of the boldest decisions I ever made was to pigment an entire hallway chalkboard paint. This happened tardily at night, in addition to I did it earlier I could alter my mind. I'm in addition to then glad I did! I usage it all the fourth dimension to doodle on, in addition to our friends dear it. We dear entertaining, in addition to I ever decorate the wall amongst whatever the topic of the nighttime is. Functionality aside, I also dear how the dark actually contrasts amongst the balance of the house. I loved it in addition to then much, I also painted an entire wall inwards my purpose amongst chalkboard paint! This is definitely something that Virginia in addition to I create got inwards common- don't you lot dear her chalkboard cabinets?!
Another projection that I dear is my faux malachite tray. I dear love dear malachite, in addition to emerald is the Color of the Year for 2013! What I don't dear close malachite, however, is the hefty cost tag. So I decided to brand my own! I primed a clearance tray that I establish at Target, in addition to went to town brushing in addition to scraping dark-green in addition to dark pigment together to create the marbled effect. It was a lot easier than I thought, in addition to amongst a glossy coat of lacquer on top, it almost looks similar the existent thing! You can't vanquish it for a few dollars!
In add-on to DIY projects, I also create got a weekly How To serial on how to accomplish the glossy journal expect inwards your ain home. I uncovering that a lot of my clients create got trouble choosing the correct sized rug, arranging pillows on your bed, in addition to even displaying fine art inwards your home. But my favorite "How To" is my tips in addition to tricks on pattern mixing! It's something that everyone has questions about, but let's move honest...who doesn't dear brilliant colors in addition to patterns? I'm a neutral gal at heart, but sometimes I gotta allow free every in i lawsuit inwards a while. And these are in addition to then fun!
So that's a circular upwardly of my half dozen favorite projects from my blog, Burlap in addition to Lace! I'd dear for you lot to halt past times in addition to nation hello. I'll move the daughter amongst the pigment inwards her pilus in addition to vino inwards her hand. Thank you lot in addition to then much for having me, Virginia! One 24-hour interval we'll move those crazy ladies carrying their cats around inwards their pocketbook land the thrift store for things to spray paint.
