Hi friends! I sincerely hope that you had a fabulous Christmas with your loved ones and that you’ve been able to unwind a little the past few days.
I have been spending extra time with my family, especially my boys and all their new toys- Legos, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Spider-Man, and too many others. 😉
I’m excited for the new year and beginning new projects in our home. Painting furniture and accessories is such a wonderful way to give new life to items that you are maybe not so excited about anymore. Or maybe you found that great side table at a yard sale, and you just need some inspiration! Enjoy and be inspired by 15+ Awesome Furniture Painting Projects You Can Do!
Here are 15+ Amazing Furniture Painting Projects!

Are you sitting down? This dining set was $85! Visit Christy from Confessions of a Serial Do It Yourselfer for the details! The transformation is amazing!
You can even update a piece with just stripes from Just a Girl and Her Blog! Abby adds grain sack stripes to an already painted chest for a quick update! Stripes are hot right now!
Chateau Grey is a lovely Annie Sloan Chalk paint color. Sharon from Mrs. Hines Class painted this old dresser, and it is now used as a media cabinet! Where is the “Love” button?
Check out this whimsical beauty by Amanda from Mommy is Coo Coo. The fabric and color choice are such fun!!! I have a major crush on this chair!

Loving this retro table. Jen from Girl in the Garage has awesome tips for painting geometric designs on furniture! 😉
This piece by Pamela From My Front Porch To Yours shows that you shouldn’t look over a badly damaged piece. This water damaged secretary is painted with not one, but two chalk paint colors. The inside was left stained.
Serena from Thrift Diving has an amazing twofer (is that a real word?) for you! Not only will she share with you the paint project, but shares how to reupholster this chair in detail!
Last, but not least by any means is Julie from Lilacs and Longhorns. She transformed this Craigslist find with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint AND added bun feet. Visit her for the how-to.
I encourage you to look around your home. Is there a piece of furniture or accessory that you are just bored with? Why not try your hand at paint! Scared or nervous? Practice on a yard sale or thrift store find first. You can even practice on scrap wood!
I’d love for you to pin the individual projects…just visit the individual blogs from the links and pin directly from their project. It will make it much easier for you and others to find it down the road.
Have a fantastic weekend!
Jen
