Goursaud’s Bold & Playful Home

Name: Goursaud Location: Nancy, France This French house call submission didn’t come with much text from the homeowners, but it’s filled with such a mix of vintage finds, tongue-in-cheek accessories and color we just had to share! Bold modern art and strong wall paint colors mix with earthy wood tones in vintage and modern furniture. These chairs mixed with a life-sized cactus statue and anatomical art makes us think dinnertime is quite playful in this home! Thanks, Goursaud!

From Alicia: We bought pre-painted white wood, made a few cuts with the miter saw and actually used hot glue to make the diamonds!

Before & After: A Simple Stool Gets Gilded for Just $15

Looking for inspiration on how a simple step — a tiny application of a surprising material, for instance — can dramatically upgrade the look of a tired piece of furniture you might already have? Then you’ll appreciate the do-this-in-a-weekend amount of work that Elly put into this old wooden piano stool. From Elly: When I moved out at the start of the year, I inherited this unwanted piano stool.
