If things ever slow down at TJX, I will be tackling my long overdue "yellow" room, so named because of the bright color I painted it when we 1st moved in (BTW, it's no longer yellow, but the name stuck!). It is my office/craft area, so if I can get it done this Spring, boy, that would be WONDERFUL!

I'm also thinking if I upholster the back of it and have the fabric sort of pop out of the cutouts, I can update the look without touching the finish (I think that is what they are most concerned with!)<br /><br />I too love the high posts (shh I sometimes use one of them to hold my ponytail bands at the end of the night!)KT @ KT's Refinishing Schoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07853398720912097572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2178289398357631425.post-471003696235178212010-12-16T18:26:16.752-05:002010-12-16T18:26:16.752-05:00Why thank you Ma'am!!

He is a PHENOMENAL graphic designer and illustrator and whipped that up for me in no time after a convo about typefaces (because we're that nerdy!) He is the best! Check out his stuff here. <br /><br />http://joealterio.com/<br /><br />:) And I know...

Maybe you could sew a slip cover over top of it to make it look more modern and that way you wouldn't be hurting it a bit! :)Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03701650725472355399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2178289398357631425.post-81013413652091586552010-12-16T17:00:32.611-05:002010-12-16T17:00:32.611-05:00One item on my project list that may never get com...One item on my project list that may never get completed is our headboard. The headboard and frame came from my husband J's grandparents' farm house and as such, I have been instructed I am not allowed to paint or touch it in any way. Luckily the stain is in fairly good shape, but I think its star burst cutouts would look great painted white or with upholstery behind the cutouts!<br /><br />You can sort of see our headboard in this post: http://ktrefinishingschool.blogspot.com/2010/08/bedroom-redesign-post-3-sheets-of.html but we have a lot of pillows so its partially obscured :)KT @ KT's Refinishing Schoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07853398720912097572noreply@blogger.com
