Refashioned Friday

Good morning!! Today I'm really excited for our Refashioned Friday segment because I didn't have to travel far to find loads of talent. I just hopped around in our play group this morning and I was so excited to see some of your creative blogs and projects.  Here are a few that I love today!

This is a shirt turned adorable dress by Krafty Mum. I would have never seen the cuteness potential in that shirt and I love how it turned out!

This next project is by Amy over at World Of Mod Podge. This little side table has so much colorful life after it's makeover! So fun!

I have to say this lamp refashion really caught my eye! It is so updated and gorgeous! This is by Vanessa at Vanilla Lavender.

Rachel at The Painted Lady turned this little table into an amazingly elegant piece of furniture!

Thanks to all of you ladies who have linked to my blog so I was able to take a peak at your coolness! If you have a project you'd like to have featured on Refashioned Friday please email me a link to a post or before and after pics.  poppyginger@gmail.com subject: Refashioned Friday.

Refashioned Friday

Here you have it folks. My favorite before and after shots of the week.

 The first is a room restyle by Nicole Balch.  This woman is out of control talented and I have really been enjoying her site Making it Lovely.  It amazes me how much the feel of the room changes by using a few different elements. The curtains are so cool and the wall color and carpet lighten up the room like crazy. 

I love the look of these chairs. The spindles on the back are just the coolest.  This refashion is by Leslie David of Paint Your Space.  I got ahold of these pics via The Design*Sponge.

This dresser is really adorable with the different shades of pink dots. I also love the scalloped bottom. This is by Jennifer from My Painted Furniture.

Check out this chair restyle by Eddie Ross via Casa Sugar.  The fabric is actually painted. 

And the final piece for the day is a chair by Jessica Jones Design.  

I guess I have chairs on the brain today, but how could I not with chairs as cute as this one.  

If you have before and after shots that you would like to have featured on Refashioned Friday just email pictures to poppyginger@gmail.com.  

Before and Afters

There's something exciting to me about before and after pictures. They seriously make me giddy. They are incredibly motivating. I love to see what things can become and I find it very interesting to see what direction people go with their refashions. I found a really great site last week that has a before and after section that I have loved to look over. The site is called Design*Sponge. 

 Here are a couple of my favorites:

These are from a Design*Sponge reader named Bethany.  I Love-lOve-loVe-lovE LOVE how these turned out. I really want to copy this idea and have all mismatched chairs that are painted the same color with coordinating fabrics. Did I say I love this yet??

This is from another Design*Sponge reader from Branson Missouri. Her name is Sarah.  She bought the fabric at Ikea. I love the crispness of the white and red. White and red together always make me happy.

These next couple of items are from Monica at the Craftynest.  These tables are super delicious even before the a restyle, but look how much personality they have with the black and cream print.

And can you believe this transformation! Great job Monica!!The next couple of projects are from people in our own little play group! I love how Cynthia restyled these candlesticks.  Aren't they so very cute?  Check out more of her stuff HERE.Another great refashion from our play group( I like the sound of that better than "followers").  This old dresser looks amazing as an updated entertainment center.  This is by Jen from The Thrifty Home.

I have had so much fun with these before and after shots I think I will start a Friday segment to showcase before and after pictures. I'll be searching for my favorites and if you have any you'd like to have featured shoot me an email at poppyginger@gmail.com with before and after in the subject line.  I'll start that up a week from tomorrow!  Happy restyling!!
