Its just paint.
Its taken a while now but painted furniture is finally embedding itself in my psyche.
I had to find some great painted finds and I am still not sure I will end up bringing myself to adding any painted furniture to my own home. But I always love how it looks in other peoples homes.
I tell clients to paint there walls all the time with the thought in there heads that
“its just paint” and can easily be changed.
“its just paint” and can easily be changed.
I think having a new home means I look around for pieces that have a storey and something with extra personality. Its something that new furniture sometimes just doesn’t have.
I would love to get a great find off eBay or gumtree and make a real feature of it with my own hard work. Something you can start with like this for .99cents on e bay and then paint it up and voila its a really great piece of personal furniture that can take centre stage.
If you feel like you have to many beige’s, browns, whites or naturals and you need just one piece of “wow” this is a great way to achieve it. You could also consider painting it your favourite colour or keeping up with trends by adding a fashion colour to tie in the other new accessories pieces you will be buying through the year. You know you will.
Lets consider all these images background research for the convincing of the husband who will of course be helping me with this project.
Do you have a link to painted furniture that will help my cause. I would love to see yours or someone else’s.
Have a great Wednesday. I will be back tomorrow for Thursdays a few of my favourite things.
Hi Element. Happy New Year! I love that green wardrobe, looks perfect for a kiddies room.
I am loving the blue pieces you featured and would love to try a small chest to start!

I l-o-v-e the yellow drawers. Something about yellow isn’t there?…
I have always liked painted furniture, the pictures you have chosen are just so pretty. I would like painted bedside tables but cant find the right pieces atm.

I’m an interior designer from Melbourne, Australia – I loved your blog, I found it very inspiring. This is all new to me but I have just set up my own blog
