Guess what today is? It’s Themed Furniture Makeover Day!
If you’re new here, it’s where my blogging buddies and I share our furniture makeovers with a monthly theme. This month’s theme is Farmhouse.
With all of the furniture makeovers that I do, the pieces I keep tend to be a bit more on the glamorous side, with lots of carving like my vintage buffet and my turquoise dining set. I know with Fixer Upper taking over the world, simple pieces are definitely trending.
When I received this vintage sewing cabinet from a friend, I knew it hard more of a farmhouse feel to it.
I painted it with Plaster Paint’s Sweet Cream.
Once it was finished, it was just too plain for my taste, so I knew I needed to spice it up a little.
A few weeks ago, I showed you my Decoupaged Vintage Desk that I used napkins on.
When I ran across some pretty butterfly napkins the other day, I knew I wanted to try my hand at the ol’ napkin trick again using Mod Podge.
I painted the inside of the drawers Plaster Paint’s Marigold, and I replaced the knobs with new ones from Hobby Lobby. I think it turned out pretty cute and would look sweet as a table in a little girl’s bedroom!
Nothing like decoupage! I love the butterflies and you did this sewing cabinet good, Shanna. It’s beautiful!
The butterflies are so sweet and make this little cabinet beautiful! I love this makeover! Great job!
Shanna, this is absolutely adorable now! I just love how the butterflies add that Pop of color!
Hugs,
Karin
Beautiful! I love love love the butterflies, and the pop of yellow on the drawers is the perfect touch.
Shanna,
Your Martha Washington sewing cabinet farmhouse makeover brought her back to life for years to come.
Happy Creating,
Karen Marie
Love your makeover on this sewing cabinet. I especially like the pop of yellow on the sides of the drawers. I have the exact same piece just waiting for her transformation. Thanks for the inspiration to get her out of the garage and give her a new lease on life.
Shanna, your makeovers always make me happy. What’s not to love about those pretty butterflies and your use of a signature bright color (albeit yellow this time rather than turquoise) is stunning! Love love love
What a unique piece and you’re right…the butterfly napkins on the drawers make it extra special!
Love the pop of color inside the drawers. Why haven’t I ever ordered paper napkins online?? We live in a small community and there’s not an awesome looking paper napkin in site. I really want to try this.
Love your fresh and cheerful and fun makeovers. This little cabinet now has more personality than most people I know. LOL….. #didisaythat Rock on with the color and butterflies…they’re totally awesome.
I fell in love with that sweet cabinet on the first picture! Lovely! Plus, butterflies have a special place in my heart. I’m sure that pretty piece will sell quickly:)
This cabinet…so precious. I have been looking for good napkins for a project of mine since your last napkin project inspired me, but I haven’t found what I’m looking for! ughh. I absolutely am smitten with this piece and this technique!
This cabinet looks so cute with the napkins decoupaged to the drawer fronts. I also love how you painted the drawers with a contrasting color. So pretty!
This is so adorable! Love the pretty butterfly drawer fronts and the pop of yellow inside.
This is gorgeous, Shanna and the butterflies add such a whimsical touch to this piece. I need to find some napkins stat!! XOXO
Wow!! It looks amazing…I’d love it if you’d link up at Talk of the Town: http://www.sadieseasongoods.com/talk-town-link-party-14/
Stunning!! I could see this piece in a girls room, on a sun porch, in a breakfast nook. So many pretty ways to show this piece off, Shanna. Love and pinned!
