Monday at My Home

Okay so it is finally bright enough here to snap some quick pics before we head downtown Portland to visit the new H&M store! I am so excited.

So here's the afters!
I decided to spray paint our TV dresser after I painted the mirror and the mantel in our family room. I think the room is so fresh and pretty now.

In adding even more white I moved our white coffee table in this room as well

I mentioned last week that I was going to pick up these pretty candlesticks at Ikea. They look so pretty on our mantel!

More white painted loveliness! I found these pretty candle holders at the GW and spray painted them as well. Ya I think I am still high off of the all the fumes! lol

The Z gallerie deer head is up!

Yet ANOTHER spray painting project! I gave this frame a facelift for the holidays with some white paint and plaid wrapping paper from Ikea! I think this corner in our house is so festive!

And last but not at all least. Evie's new horsey from the GW given a mega facelift. The horse is a lot bigger than it looks here. You get a little sneak peek at her new curtains in the background too!

Okay if you have not found any inspiration in all this I give up!

    I love what you have done with your place! The heart pictures are my favorite. The white dresser with tv looks great. The plaid on the mirror is great with the HoHoHo art work. Everything is so festive and fun. Nothing boring. GREAT JOB! Thanks for sharing! I am feeling inspired to get to work around here, nothing boring - only fun!

    Love it all Leah! So beautiful! But one question, how do you get your white spray paint to go on smoothly?! Especially on larger pieces like your dresser. I have had the worst time with it!

    Elisa,
    The key to spray painting is many light coats. Otherwise it will drip. Let me know if you have anymore questions!
