I have an old Singer Sewing Machine inset on a wood console that belonged to my late Grandmother (z'l) and have always wondered what to do with it (other than keeping it in the spare guest room!)!

But in the end, it's better to make the change and enjoy the piece than to keep it stored away in a garage or the basement because it doesn't work with your decor.<br /><br />Your grandma would be proud :-)K&B by the Seahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05581765778332754970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8010276923899159734.post-89074485640466663322011-01-30T22:59:44.026-05:002011-01-30T22:59:44.026-05:00Another example of why paint is a good thing.

The colours are so much deeper in person, the patterned wallpaper, the splashy illustration...so so rich. This space, for me is a true testament to how you've mastered mixing old and new, glossy and natural finishes. Painting the desk blue was such a supercool strategy for adding lightness to that otherwise dark hallway. It's probably my favourite space in the entire house!lianne - slow bloodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08933919170084337905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8010276923899159734.post-4957559819401350022011-01-30T21:44:20.168-05:002011-01-30T21:44:20.168-05:00So pretty!So pretty!Solace Interiorshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01188571329288603416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8010276923899159734.post-63467989919093965402011-01-30T20:52:53.315-05:002011-01-30T20:52:53.315-05:00A lovely transformation, and the blue looks fantas...A lovely transformation, and the blue looks fantastic with the art sitting above the desk!<br />VictoriaVictoria @ The FAT Paint™ Company and ÉdinHomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14275327713940017535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8010276923899159734.post-90031543288836272982011-01-30T20:43:08.106-05:002011-01-30T20:43:08.106-05:00I love seeing repainted/refinished furniture, and ...I love seeing repainted/refinished furniture, and this piece turned out beautifully! It's funny how a fresh new colour can make any piece of out-dated furniture look chic and cool.
