I am so excited about Sally King Benedict’s blog sale over at Look Linger Love.

If you have’t been over there to check it out yet, you really need to.

Sally is selling 12 unframed pieces along with 19 custom framed pieces, all original pieces of art.

This is a great opportunity to get an original piece of art for an affordable price.

They have been selling fast but there still are a few left.

 Wouldn’t one of these pieces make the perfect christmas gift? I know I want one!

And how awesome is the idea of having a blog sale?

It really allows an artist to make their art accessible to a wide variety of people.

Love it.

Happy Shopping.

I finally did it, I started painting my faux bamboo chairs!

You can read all about my lucky find here.

This project has been on my mind forever but I have been hesitant to start because I wasn’t confident in my direction.

I decided to paint them white, kinda boring I know but I want to keep them versatile.

I am using Rustoleums oil based high gloss paint, like I did with my desk.

I love the sheen and durability of the paint.

I was hoping they would only need one coat.

Man, that was a silly thought, I think they will need three, boo!

All of those spindles are killing me, it was at this point in the project that I contemplated throwing the chair off the balcony. 

Such.a.pain.

I pushed through the torture  and got one coat done.

Since the paint requires 24 hours of drying time in-between coats,  I haven’t had the chance (or found the motivation) to slap on the second coat.

 Did I mention I have 4 of these chairs? 

Although it is a pain-in-my-rear, I am loving the white.

Now I have to make the next big decision, what fabric for the cushion?

I thought you could help me with that.

 I am drooling over Caitlin Wilsons new fabric line and have my eye on a couple of the prints.

So let’s hear your vote!

I think I know my favorite but I would love to hear what you think.

Thanks 🙂

Thanks so much for your comments yesterday.

You guys are too sweet 🙂

Now let’s get back to design…

Ever since I saw this Ikea Rast hack, I can’t get it out of my head.

I know we have all seen a million Rast hacks, but these red Dorothy Draper inspired side tables speak to me.

I think I might have to re-visit my Ikea Rast Hacks.

I love them but I wouldn’t mind a change.

Are you loving these too?

I think she did such an amazing job!

Are you convinced yet?

If not, Lisa from Trapped in North Jersey just completed these beauties for her bedroom.

The blue and gold combo is to die for.

Well actually her whole bedroom is.

You rock Lisa.

I can’t wait to get started!
