It's like a Fairy land!

This bedroom set I'm about to show you is so awesome! My client wanted her bedroom to feel like she'd stepped into a world of Fairies! After a lot of back and forth and lots of pictures we decided on what she wanted done and the colors. As she was dropping it off we talked a little more and she mentioned that some glitter on the hardware would rock her socks! I was so thrilled. Let me tell you about how awesome my job is. Everything I paint may not be something I'd like in my own home but it's certainly always fun to try new things and this particular one definitely brings out the little girl...you know the one that wears her princess costume around any time of the year, with the tall cone hat with sheer fabric flowing out of the top. Yeah.

This furniture had been her mother's and was then hers when she was younger. Now she's married with a child of her own and wanted something new and more her style! I used four different colors on it. Three I bought at Lowes and the fourth I custom mixed from the blue and green.

Ready? OK, here are the befores.



She actually did not already own the two nightstands. She found them at an antique store the same day she dropped off the furniture. Truly meant to be. Alright, enough talk and on to the after pics, right?

Disclaimer: These picture (OK, all my pictures) are taken with my iphone 5 and although pretty good it really doesn't pick up details like I would like. Hopefully you can still see all the pretty colors.







How perfect are they! I wish I could have picked up the gorgeous sparkle on the hardware but ya know. You'll have to use your imagination for that one. I have more furniture coming up VERY soon! Thanks for stopping by!
