Basement Reveal Video
Drumroll please. At last! The basement is revealed. It certainly isn’t finished, but it looks much more like a room than it did many months ago. The walls are painted, the carpet has been laid, the creepy spiders have been smashed, and we’ve got an extra room on our hands. Just so you didn’t forget how ugly this room was to begin with, here [...]
A dresser in the making
Remember when I blogged about my hand-me-down dresser? I haven’t forgotten about it, promise. As it turns out, I was apparently on a white paint terror this weekend. All furniture in our house should’ve made a run for it, because I was having a ball with my paint brush. Besides our staircase, what was I painting? This beautiful dresser I’d recently inherited from my Momma’s [...]
Still in the works: painted staircase
Morning! I had two projects that I vowed to finish this weekend, and come Sunday night, I’m 1 for 2. The painted staircase is so, so close to being done, but it’s not 100% ready for its grand reveal. BUT, I do have progress pictures, and I promise I will show-off the finished project sometime this week. You see, paint takes awhile to dry, [...]
In the works:numbered staircase
Friends, I have been busy. Almost too busy to show you what I’ve been busy with. Lately, I’ve been inspired by these staircase images on Pinterest…. {via} {via} So, I’ve decided to paint our dreadful basement staircase and give it a mini face-lift! Here’s what I was working with… And here’s a few progress shots… And after much debate, here’s the final color I [...]
Before & After: cupboard makeover
Good morning folks! Everyone loves a before and after, right? Heck yes. Even when it involves cupboards, mini-makeovers are ridiculously cool. My sweet friend Katie (whom you’ve met many times before) spiffed up her kitchen shelves and was kind enough to share her little project with us! Here’s more info about the little makeover, in Katie’s own words… The “before” picture wouldn’t tell you [...]
Dining Room Pendant Update
Our Ballard Designs eldridge pendant arrived late last week, and it was a race to get it installed before our BBQ. It quickly found a new home above our farmhouse dining room table, and I’m so happy I waited this long for a pendant that I really wanted. Isn’t it crazy how a light can change the entire mood and look of a room? [...]
The magic of paint
One of my very first giveaways on Restored Style was paint. The folks from Olympic graciously offered me two cans of their NO-VOC paint to put up for grabs, and I’d like to think the perfect gal (and family!) won the giveaway. Amber Carter took home the paint, she she just so happened to be pregnant and in nursery planning mode. It was meant to be! Amber [...]
Carpet Reveal…sorta.
I’m hesitant to even share these photos with you, as they are crappy iPhone pictures that don’t do our new carpet justice. Once the carpet was actually laid, Kyle and I were so excited to move the furniture back in that we did so immediately – too fast for me to break out my mighty Nikon. So all I have are these fuzzy photos. Boo. BUT, we [...]
