Hello everyone! Hope you’re having a lovely week so far – so happy you’re excited about this makeover – isn’t it such a lovely idea to paint a pattern on them? Was completely inspired to find ways to freshen things up around the house for Spring.
MirandaJ – Lovely to hear from you, and thanks so much! Your projects are fantastic — especially love the idea of setting the tables side-by-side as one – thanks for the inspiration!
they are gorgeous! and “green”. and remind me I haven’t posted a B&A in too long.
Thanks for featuring my projects! I am a huge fan of your blog and am so flattered that you liked our May story!

Bravo! I love transforming items to something usable & gorgeous. Who does not adore the chevron pattern? It’s being ‘green’ too!!
Happy Saturday (:
omg these are the best!
Great before & after! I love makeovers, and this one is particularly nice. The boring nightstands have become really glamorous!
Thanks for posting this; it’s very inspiring – and it’s also very important to promote stylish redesign.
Have a great weekend!
