<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">So this was super fun...if it didn't take 4 hours to tape. Long story short the guy that laid the tile did not use spacers (idiot) and the grout lines were so ridiculously off that I had to go in with a Dremel and take all the white grout out and replace it with a slate colored grout so the line difference would be minimized. The reason for the tape? The slate was getting scratched up during the removal process so it was necessary to protect the edges. </td></tr>

Our house had no shortage of honey-oak cabinetry when we bought it, but room by room, I'm remedying this problem! We'd love to eventually do a complete remodel of our master bath, but in the meantime, I had to do something about this situation:</div>

I didn't spare a minute to take a picture before I covered these babies up with some pretty dark gray/navy paint. I used one coat of primer, 2 coats of Behr paint/primer combo and 1 coat of poly. I rolled everything on with a sponge roller in the shower - easiest clean up around! </div>

The base we bought is a foam-composite material so that when water made its way on the mirror and slid down as it often does on my husbands side, the trim wouldn't warp. A super dumb trick when painting trim is to use cans of food to prop the trim up.</div>

How'd I forgot that ugly 90's clock? Oh well. I painted that little ombre chair using paint samples I had on hand. So, while I'd love to change out the tile, shower, tub, cultured marble counters, lighting, faucets, (!!!!) this is great for now!</div>

I once painted my kitchen plum, despite every well intentioned person that told me not to do it. I LOVED it! I've since decided that I love all shades of purple and wish I had the guts to use the color of these flowers from my backyard in my great room. Maybe for spring?Cammie Malagahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10658618940124542838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1908177899538967290.post-16612446131218788262012-07-27T16:42:00.000-05:002013-02-15T15:35:05.577-06:00Wall O' frames<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I'm getting a bit bored of the 'picture wall' with the standard black frame in various sizes that everyone seems to have. I fell in love when the RH catalouge (actually, it's more of a book...how much does it cost them to print that baby?) arrived and I turned to the picture below. I love how it looks like the art was added overtime, slowly. </div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">We must have looked at 40+ houses before we settled on this one. I don't understand the fascination with honey oak cabinetry Texas builders have. New homes, old homes, middle aged homes, all with oak cabinetry. I understand it's a solid, hard wood, but does it need to be stained honey color? Our homes in WA and Chicago had maple cabs and they held up quite nice, thank you. Anyway, it was super dark, closed off from the rest of the main level, and had a Tuscany vibe going on, my least favorite style. We considered doing much of the work ourselves, but decided against it after pricing out.</span></td></tr>

They accidentally covered up the electrical outlet for the lighting above and had to re-do the sheet rock. That totally would have been something we would have done, and so again, I'm so happy we hired this out. </span></td></tr>

Laney got in on the action too. I didn't realize until later, but she purposely did the 'I' white so it would kinda read 'I shine'! Clever girl!</div>

Like most dining rooms, ours is visible as soon as you enter our house and said of us living here, "we are very boring people, come on in." We had spent all of our fortunes on the kitchen so I knew I'd have to find some way to add interest to the room on my own. Enter in: board and batten. I followed the awesome tutorial on a favorite blog, Centsational Girl, and am fairly happy with the results. <span class="Apple-style-span">I went blog hopping and read a few different tutorials about this project, and am seriously so thankful for all teh help/inspiration I get from others sharing their skills. I did find that most lucky people had the lovely smooth texture we had in Chicago (the kind I would now kill for) but for some reason, Texans love their thick texture and oak cabinets to boot. Soooo, I couldn't just paint the wall a glossy white, I had to cover it up with 4' X 8' dry erase panels. I also wanted to add a picture ledge all the way around for display.</span></div>

Genius! The back of the paper has a grid on it and it was so.much.easier (and cheaper) than using a vinyl like I have in the past. I really wanted to use something bright and different then the rest of the house (where cool colors dominate) and this banana pepper yellow was the one. </div>

After. I used the fabulous Annie Sloan Chalk Paris Gray paint and the clear wax. This stuff really is amazing and 1 quart goes so far! It's a bit easier to swallow the price ($37/quart of the paint once I realized I only used 1/2 quart after 2 coats on this bar. For some reason the paris gray seems to go on better than the old white - or maybe because this was my first project I was more patient and through???</div>

I wish I had a picture of the "Tuscany" style tile that didn't jive so well in this room but I was so excited to paint over it that I forgot to take one! Yes, I did say paint over...I used chalk paint on the tile and it worked!! I am so happy with the results and the cost effectiveness! I could have been a little more careful with the grout lines but it's just a wet bar in my girls bonus room. :)</div>

This room has pretty much been a 'catch-all' for all the junk since we moved in 4 weeks ago. I thought it would be fun if I surprised the girls "Divine Design" style - I guess it would be more like "Design on a Dime" considering I did it all for less than $600! My plan for this room was to make it somewhere that my girls and their friends would want to hang out. It needed to be fun and playful but not too kid-ish and not too grown-up. They need lots of space to play Wi and other games, but also needed enough seating for plenty of friends. They also needed an area to craft and sew (or practicing sewing), do homework and practice piano.</div>

Hour 1 of 4 spent on this stenciled wall. Looks easy right? That's what I thought! Actually, it's pretty easy just time consuming and monotonous. My intent was to stencil 2 (or possibly 3 depending on what it looked like) walls, but my hand wouldn't cooperate. Maybe later...</div>

I've seen this Annie Sloan paint on various design blogs and had to order some for myself. It is as amazing as they claim it is...and maybe even better. The colors are yummy and it adheres to everything without preparation- including the ugly Tuscany style ceramic tile on the girls wet bar. At one point I considered replacing the back splash when we get our kitchen done, but for an area for tweens, this works wonderfully! I plan to do a second coat this week.</div>

We've had this white slipcover IKEA couch for 7 years now, and I keep finding a purpose for it! These giraffe print ottomans are super light weight and easy to move, have storage space inside and can be used for multiple purposes. All of the pillows are covered with an outdoor fabric for extra durability, except the small chevron stripped one (I found it on Etsy) but it can be easily removed and cleaned. I bought this US map at the Goodwill and stained the frame. The girls plan to put pins in every state they have been too - which is almost all! I plan to do one of two things to back portion of the desk filing cabinets so you don't have to look at blank nothingness 1) cut some vinyl graphics in navy to add or 2) Use the Annie Sloan chalk paint on the back of these - all colors can be used as a blackboard or chalkboard! We've tried it on my sample cabinet door and written/erased, written/erased and it works fantastically! </div>
