Beach Cottage Style Bedroom - Show and Tell Friday

 



Welcome to Show and Tell Friday!

 

This week at work we had a baby shower for a coworker expecting a little girl.  We were decorating a conference room for the shower and I thought it would be nice to have some pink roses.  I brought in this little bouquet holder that I bought at the Alameda Antique Faire many years ago.  Then I picked some roses that are growing along the parking lot

The freshly painted side table - Show and Tell Friday

 






 Welcome to Show and Tell Friday!

 

Last weekend I decided to move some furniture around. I originally had my TV on this table on the other side of the room next to the fireplace and I had a vintage dresser here.  I like it this way so much better!  It inspired me to give it a fresh coat of paint...chalk paint of course!  I bought this table at a thrift store years ago and my daughter

Bougainvillea - Show and Tell Friday

Welcome to Show and Tell Friday! 



Last week I went to Costco just to buy some groceries until I saw this gorgeous bougainvillea out in front of the store. I couldn't resist!  Costco always seems to get me with something I want but don't really need!

The freshly painted coffee table - Show and Tell Friday

 

Welcome to Show and Tell Friday! 

 

I finally repainted my coffee table! I've been talking about it for years but after all the furniture I painted in the past I was dreading it! 




 

This time it was a breeze because I used Annie Sloan Chalk Paint!  Now I know why everyone raves about this paint! It is AMAZING!  I didn't have to strip or sand I just painted it and then used the

Happy Easter - Show and Tell Friday

Welcome to Show and Tell Friday! 







This week I'm sharing the last of my Easter décor!    Easter really snuck up on me this year (although I think I say that every year)!







I decorated the dresser I have in my living room with some Easter décor I've had for years.  I bought the tulips at the grocery store.







I hope you all have a wonderful Easter (for those that celebrate it)
