The Rapunzel Bedroom

Here goes the transformation of a “Rapunzel” inspired room. Lots of spray paint will be involved!!!I got these frames from thrift shops and garage sales. I took the pictures and glass out and spray painted them heirloom white.


If you preorder the “Tangled” DVD from the Disney store you get 4 Tangled prints and a $10 coupon – no brainer! I knew I wanted to use the pictures in Sally’s room, but they are a funny size. So, I used the over sized frames and just tacked the picture in the center – I love how it looks!
I already had this quilt but needed to fix it up a bit. I cut lavender circles and flowers out and appliqued/quilted them right on top and I love the new look it gives.

New flower center and the quilting is swirled
I finally painted this little night stand that I got at a garage sale – 2 of them for $5! It began as a yellow flowered night stand with brass handles – I’m sure you’ve seen the look. One can of Heirloom white later and I love it! We also spray painted the thrifted jewelry box and the thrifted mirror! (notice the Cinderella perfume, it was from Santa and smells so cute!)
I sewed a little quilt to go on top of the nightstand. I love how it turned out – super simple I think it took and hour start to hand sewn binding!
I used the puff balls from the birthday party and hung them in the Rapunzel room. The puff balls were made from white tissue paper and I lightly spray painted the edges pink or purple so they have a softer, blended feel.

Paint that Kitchen Table!

This is our kitchen table. We bought it when we were first married….15 years ago! The finish has worn off the top and over the years it has turned this yellow/gold color. Time for a new look.

We sanded down the chairs and table. I had lots of helpers!David bought an attachment to his compressor so we could spray paint the table and chairs. First the primer, then the white paint.
We sanded the table top down to the wood and applied a new stain. It looked so pretty all natural.

We applied a mix of 2 stains to get the color we wanted. Then, I distressed the chairs and table legs a touch. We painted several coats of polyurethane on and we were done! It looks like a new kitchen! On one of my favorite blogs, Just a Girl, she commented, “I may never buy new furniture again!” I agree!

David asked if I was going to “display” anything on the table – meaning, are you going to junk it up with a centerpiece. He said, “if it were me, I would have all the counter tops and table tops empty.” I then told him, I haven’t had a centerpiece on the table since Christmas, it has been all the kids junk they won’t put away. As for the counters, I don’t “display” anything there either – I need as much working space as I can get!
