Who else loves paint as much as I do? I believe it’s one of the easiest and cheapest ways to transform just about anything, from rooms to furniture to accessories.
And I just happen to be married to a painting contractor so that’s a bonus!
One of my most recent projects is my Repurposed Rolling Kitchen Cart.
If you follow me on Instagram you know I’ve been working on transforming a bedroom into a video studio for Facebook lives, recipe videos and working with brands.
I was so excited when I found this kitchen cart on Facebook marketplace and got the seller down to $20!
You can read all about it in this post but the transformation is amazing! Now I have a place for props and my computer when I film.
My favorite paint to use for the beginner (that’s me!) is always chalk paint. I have a couple great posts with tons of helpful tips.
