How do I repair damaged corner on dresser before painting
Hi Brenda! I have a tutorial on how to use Bondo on corners here.
You mention “on Tuesday you will be sharing a MCM makeover” .
Could you share what MCM means? I am at a total loss trying to figure it out.
For sure…sorry I should have written that out in full! MCM stands for Mid Century Modern Furniture. It’s a style of furniture that was made around mid-century — 1945 to 1965ish. I’m not exactly sure what I’m going to be doing with this piece yet but I would love to keep some of the wood because it’s in great condition. 🙂
Oh my, your projects are always beautiful. I just love your posts
Thanks so much, Robin! XOXO
Hi Denise. Each and every one of these projects are very inspiring, although I’m unsure if I could finish them in just one day. Lol. I tend to work at a snail’s pace:D. Thank you for sharing. I always enjoy your roundups.
lol…well its most fun to work at your own pace and enjoy the full process. It’s not a race!😉💙
I love your blog and the mirrors are lighting a fire under me that has been missing. What is the name and where can I get the transfer on the one mirror about family? I love everything you do.
Thanks Bonnie! It’s called Spring Flower Transfer and you can get it here.
They are all great projects but that magazine rack is ADORABLE Denise! ~ Nicki
Aw thanks Nicki! XOXO
Hi Denise, I just love all of the pieces above. I love boxes of all kinds, and especially the drawer turned into a box. Just stunning! I’m a Neighbour in Niagara on the Lake and if you ever have a show, or are demoing in person, I would love to see your pieces up close! They just make me so happy!
Hey neighbour… I LOVE NOTL! I haven’t visited this year yet (due to covid) but I’m hoping later this summer I might. Even if it’s just to window shop and walk around the side streets. The homes are so charming! And thanks… I haven’t been teaching anywhere since the pandemic but I’m hoping that will change soon. 🙂
