Congrats to ReinvintageArts--winner of last week's giveaway with AmyKristineVintage!!
Many of you who have been reading along know I love vintage....and as attested to in early early posts (back when dinosaurs roamed this blog) I refinish furniture, and love refinished furniture.
You could paint just about anything cream and I would love it

In my mind, paint is the answer to almost any decorating dilemma. Paint and Sticky back tile. We once did a backsplash in a rental with sticky-back tile--you would not have believed how authentic and gorgeous it looked! I have always wanted to try the ole paint your countertops to look like granite...haven't summoned the courage yet--but one day I will!!

We still have a couch we painted brown to look like leather. After we painted it with simple latex paint, we used several coats of paste wax, added some brads and boom! Man Cave couch. Here's some pictures... These were taken several years ago, without blogs in mind and in a parsonage -- I had no control over the ugly paneling.
