Before and After Wednesday

Hello World!  There is not much to say about today's Before and After except, WOW!  
Red Hot, Baby!  
 This is the work of Shanna who is the mastermind behind Restoration Redoux.  Let's see the plain Jane before. 

 Nothing special, maybe even a little boring. 

 This painted lady isn't boring anymore.  She's ready for her 
close-up. 
Even from the side she's beautiful. 

Nothing but a looker now!  To see more, head on over to Restoration Redoux and give Shanna some love. 

If you have any before and after projects that you would love to get featured, email them to thededicatedhouse@gmail.com and in the subject line, please put Before and After Wednesday.  It can be any before and after: gardening, furniture redo, room makeover, complete renovation, sewing repurpose.  Anything with a before and after.

***Also, start sending all of your holiday before and afters.  For example:  wreath creations, centerpieces, decor.  Just make sure there is a before pic of the "naked piece" (naked table to fabulous tablescape, naked Christmas tree to decked out beauty, naked wreath to beautiful filled in wreath)...you get the picture.  I'm compiling a file for the upcoming holidays so that we have a ton of inspiration to see us through the seasons on Before and After Wednesday.***

Make it Pretty Monday has some great inspiration.  Click here to go check it out.  And, don't forget about the Anything Blue Friday party.  Any shade of blue and it doesn't have to be in every picture. I've kept the party open so more blue inspiration can be added.  Click here to go to Anything Blue Friday.

I'm off to take the young one to swim lessons.  Have a pretty rest of the day and remember to be kind to one another!  Fear Not!

Toodles,
Kathryn

  2. I would never be so bold as to paint a piece red myself, but every time I see one I can't help but fell in love with it!
