three green boxes sitting on top of a counter next to plates and cups in front of a mirror

Recently when I visitied Nell Hill's in Kansas City (see my tour here), the only thing I took home with me was a lot of inspiration! There was one thing I was tempted to buy, but I quickly realized it would be such an easy DIY. The store was full of colorful lacquered boxes...oh so pretty and handy for stylish storage on a table or bookshelf. I knew that I had one old box at home, and a quick trip to Michael's and $3 got me a smaller one. Here they are before: I removed the clasp locks on…

a white dresser with brass handles and knobs on it's drawers that says, this haqueted dresser was previously brush painted

Marielle | Self Taught Glossy Furniture Flips & Home DIY Tips | on Instagram: "Can you lacquer over furniture that was previously brush painted? 👇 - It’s possible but not best practice. First you need to make sure what type of paint is already on the dresser. Is it oil based or latex? Latex paint will expand and contract which is why it isn’t ideal to have under lacquer which does not expand. - If you have to lacquer over a previously painted surface, especially one that was brushed, make…

a white table is being painted in a room

Hey ya'll! So, I've been traveling around like a crazy person all summer long. I've been home about three out of eight weekends, and my projects have totally taken a backseat. I have a very obvious pattern that repeats itself each year: I see ALL the people and do ALL the things all summer long, and then every winter I hermit myself until the sun comes back out...leaving me plenty of time to do all the things I avoided all summer. So, we're not freaking out about the summer slump. Lassie…

a can of spray paint sitting on top of an oven

We LOVE the look of Lacquered finishes... but they can be tricky Kenny enjoys using his spray gun with enamel paint, but me? Not so much It's the "cleaning" part that gets me...

Happy Thursday everyone! I wanted to follow up on my last post regarding the campaign desk. I already showed you how to clean brass hardware a week ago. Now, I wish I could take credit for transforming this chest, but I can't. I always have good intentions when it comes to painting, but then 5 minutes into it, I remember how much I hate it, and that's usually the time I start cursing in my head - or more realistically, out loud. Thankfully, I have an amazing husband, Andrew, who's gotten…
