Furniture Feature Friday | no. 4

My boys have a four day weekend, so I am feeling totally out of whack!  I didn’t want to miss FFF, though and, as always, I found so many inspiring posts!  It even has me tempted to dive into painting my butler’s pantry, but I have other things I need to work on first.

  Anyway, if you want to see some of my other favorites, you can check out my Instagram Stories, but here are the top three I selected to feature this week…

I love this hanging bead board cabinet by @mywhitefarmhouse and her entire Instagram feed is lovely!  Doesn’t it look like her dog is smiling, too?

 

I also love this pretty hutch from @ourstouthome.  The blue and white caught my eye, of course, but it’s a great example of beautiful simplicity.

And this metal filing cabinet found at the ReStore by @bittersweetandbloom was repurposed to perfection!  I don’t know if I would’ve taken a chance on a piece like that, but I love how it’s style and offers some functional storage to boot.

  2. Marian, I don’t know how you juggle it all, but I’m glad you do. Thanks for bringing back FFF’s. Love to peek at everyone’s different styles.

  3. I actually loved it when my kids had time off of school. I always had fun hanging out with them, or going someplace fun. I was a stay at home Mom, and I loved every minute of it! And of course they loved being home, too!

  4. So glad you brought this back. I always loved seeing all the furniture makeovers. @ourstouthome her cabinet is so gorgeous with the blue pottery. Somehow I knew you would pick that one. Thanks again for mentioning me. My bowwood buffet sold last night so I’m on the hunt for another project. Susan. @rivercabingal

  5. Thanks for the mention. I debated for months whether or not to paint that hutch! So glad I did with the help of your milk paint! I have loved blue and white for years. I love it so much our house is blue:) Thanks much! ~Nichole @ourstouthome

On the way home from the Country Living Fair, my mom and I thought we would stop by a few antique stores.  We planned on shopping our way up to Rhinebeck, but the GPS routed us on toll roads, so we didn’t see anywhere to stop.  I should’ve planned out

how I use AI as an artist

A couple of years ago, I signed up for a trial to use an AI photo generator.  I was curious to see what kind of reference photos I could create with it.  I thought it might be a good tool for generating reference photos of subjects I don’t regularly have
