That dog is cracking me up...

Cute pup! Is it an american bulldog?

i just repainted an ugly on sale pedestal side table from urban outfitters today. the spraycan erupted all over my now powder blue hands.

The dog is a little scary looking. Maybe it's the paint fumes.

Great job on the dresser! But I really love that painting ...

we used spray paint with stone texture on the ugliest shelf ever and now everyone LOVES it. Wish I could post a picture for you to see. And the best ppart is - it woke up the non-existent crafty part in my husband! -)

I've posted these before but this is how we saved our old entertainment center. Chalkboard paint.

Way cute dog - white boxer?

Oooh... can we see the transformation from pale white to glossy black? :)

Uhhh I'm not seeing any dog. But great job on the dresser! Is everyone agreeing that spray paint is the way to go when painting furniture?

I think spraypaint can be a gamble on furniture (or any large object with smooth surfaces). it certainly works.. but its best to do many light coats- or you risk drips, and depending on the sheen of the paint.. an uneven finish (glossy here.. not glossy there..) I favor a small paint-roller (the kind where the roller is a sponge with a smooth texture)

I recently found an AMAZING desk at a goodwill outlet. It might be teak.. which i hear is hard to refinish. I am currently attempting to sand and re-seal it.. but if the results suck, i'll just paint it. (just to brag about it.. the desk is a half-circle, and the back of the desk is bookshelfs. i might just re-sell it since my apartment is too small for it)

mdeathstar, where did you get your couch pillows? they would be perfect in my house!

lieschen - I got them (on sale!) here:
