Weekend DIY - A Little Paint et Voila

It is almost the weekend.

They are forecasting rain yet again for the

weekend and next week.  

So what's a girl to do?

Like most of us, I am a Pinterest addict

and I was looking for a fun project that might

not take a lot of time and would give an

immediate home decor punch.

The one thing all these projects have in common

is adding a little paint by using a stencil or

even free hand and your object or

flat space will have a brand new look.

Have fun customizing these ideas to make them

your own and you won't even know that it's

RAINING AGAIN!??!

This lady loves Palm Beach.

Wouldn't this be a fun color for a

dressing room?

I did this with an old lamp shade.

I wrote my favorite poem by Maya Angelou

and when I turn on my light, I get to

enjoy it again.

My home has glass in it's doors throughout the

house.  I love this project.  It will make my

home feel so French.

If not lace on your doors,

how about your windows?

Or on a long hall in your home?

Or on your patio or deck?

 I love block printing and it seems that all the blogs

are featuring posts on designing and painting your

own fabric design.  Block printing seems so easy to me

but if you want to have more elements in your design,

stop by Poppy Talk and see a fun DIY there.

I love painted furniture and this design doesn't 

look so difficult.  You could even use a decal 

to add the Eiffel Tower.  They are everywhere

on the internet.  And when you tire of it or

change your decor ... just repaint.

Have a fun and creative weekend.

Throw on some great music, grab a

glass of wine, be brave and

CREATE.

Anouk has on her artist's
beret and is ready to add a little
lace to her maison.  Instead of
grabbing a glass of wine,
she goes for a cigarette.
Tsk, tsk .. but she is
French!
