April James Interiors: Weathered Wood + Chippy Old Finish VIDEO Tutorial


This week I have such a fun treat for you- a majorly big overhaul of this vintage craftsman style cupboard by the ubber-talented April James. April is my local Annie Sloan stockist- her shop's in Spanish Fork, UT. We met and became fast friends over a shared love of paint and all things crafty. The only difference is, I am a self-taught amateur and she is a many times certified faux artist.

Weatherwood Stained Laundry Room Oak Table


I (virtually) met this wonderful faux painter- Kari Caldwell when she first used Weatherwood's Reclamation color on some cherry cabinets several months ago. Since then, she also used it on this little DIY project and I thought what better way to display this post than to share it with you- my blog friends. I think there are many of us without laundry rooms that lack shelving and room to fold, stack and store.

Hi G2B readers! Hope you are all having a great week so far. This month I am showing you how transform an antique table that was a little blah into something that says “I am a statement piece!”.  All you need for this easy transformation is some chalk paint, a brush and a wax sealer.Checker-Table-Always-Never-Done
