painted accents

I was tired of some of my accent pieces. I still loved something about each piece BUT wanted to refresh them.

spray painted and then hand painted for a unique finish and texture


painted turquoise and then distressed and the side plaques are lightly brushed over with yellow ASCP in Arles

turquoise with sea blue and antiques (was a trio of mirrors that were gold, I removed the mirrors)

hand painted yellow ASCP in Arles and aged with some stain rubbed on and off (was a putty stone colored resin wall plaque)

turquoise and distressed (were black and brown)

  3. I love your thriftiness! Way to repurpose old decor that just needs a facelift. I love the idea. Saves me a trip to Goodwill, if I'd just "shop" around my own house.
