It’s been a whirlwind around here lately! I don’t know if I’ve ever been this exhausted before.
I’ve had some very unexpected yet exciting things happening in my life which I hope to share soon.
I was moving some things around the other day and got in the mood for another furniture makeover.
I’ve had this little cane bench for years but it was just hiding in my closet.
Time for a makeover!
Here is where the little cane bench sits in my walk-in-closet. You might recall it’s my Audrey Hepburn inspired walk-in-closet.
I used bed risers to paint it. When I saw them I didn’t think bed risers, I thought furniture painting supplies!
Because this piece was high gloss, I sanded it all over just to rough it up a bit. I only spent 5 minutes sanding.
I love cane painted white (so French!) so of course that’s what I did.
I used Casement from Fusion Mineral Paint.
I seriously wasn’t loving this piece anymore but now I do.
I’m not sure where I’m putting it just yet but it works as a cute side table.
I still need to add some beeswax polish to it but I love the finished look.
I was worried I’d have to get out a spray paint can to paint over the cane but it was really easy.
Now it looks beautifully French.

Hello, I love your blog but there are new video ads that run on your blog that force you to watch them first before a reader can read/view any of the page content. I realize bloggers make money off ads, but being forced to watch videos is unacceptable. Perhaps you are not aware of this so I’m just bringing it to your attention. Thanks.
Really? I’ve never scene any video ads and I’ve been visiting Jamie’s blog for a long time. Perhaps you should run an anti-virus check and malware check on your computer Michelle.
Does anyone else get video’s?
Hi Michelle,
I specifically don’t have any videos on my blog. Whereabouts are you seeing them?
Thanks,Jamie
What a great transformation. It looks fresh and airy! I am also a great believer in the power of paint!
I am new to the blogging world and just love the community and all the ideas that are shared. Glad to have stopped by your blog!
Thanks Mary! So glad you’re here! The blogging world is such a wonderful community.
Big hugs,
Jamie
