Great finds! Did you spray paint or use brush and rollers?
Love the robin's egg blue chest of drawers!
Brush painted the tables and chest of drawers. I used spray paint for the wicker trunks and the lamps. For the lamps I spray painted first with the blue, then sponged on an ivory to add some interest
There is NOTHING like a coat of paint to freshen things up, and to make things go together and/or coordinate! Looks great. When in doubt, paint anything that is not moving!
Cute! Looks like the apartment is getting decorated quickly. Now, is there a machine in that cabinet? I only see the lamp plugged in. It's ok to have e-machines around ; )
No machine in that one. It's wedged in the corner where I couldn't use it if there was. I have a treadle set up in the guest room and will probably bring a portable e-machine, for decorative stitching, which I can set up on the table.
