Music and Decorating (Blog Buddy Edition)

Who doesn't love music? Music is great. If you are anything like me, you have Pandora playing right now. I might have a weird brain, but I connect songs with images. I almost always have a song in my head. Its like I have my own personal soundtrack of my life. 

Decorating is also pretty awesome. 

Gold Rope Trim Bench

I've made a few of these upholstered benches before. You can see the first two I made here. 

Black Edwardian Mirror

I have a before and after to share with you today. Last year, I scored a walnut dresser built around 1890, at a garage sale of all places. I refinished the dresser long ago, and left the poor, sad mirror to sit in my garage for almost a year. 

Faux Gear Tutorial

You may remember in Monday's post, I mention that I had a foam project I was working on. Well, it all started when I was at SNAP Conference in April and I stopped by the Floracraft booth. The reps showed me a couple of their new products and I started getting ideas. A couple months later, the kind people of Floracraft sent me a massive box filled with goodies! 

Furniture Feast

I love furniture. It gets my heart racing. 

I know I'm not the only one who experiences this kind of lust. So, I browsed and put together some images for my fellow furniture lovers. 

Tour Through Blogland with Me

I got a pretty cool email last week from my friend Kim from Reposhture Studio. It was an invitation to take part in A Tour Through Blogland. The tour is a cool way for us bloggers to introduce you to blogs that we read and are inspired by.
