Must Have Tools for Painting Furniture + a Giveaway!

A few things used to hold me back from bigger projects. Space, time, and uncertainty if the end result would be worth the back ache I was bound to have when it was done.

But I’ve learned a few tricks and have much better tools for getting the job done and the results have been beautifully redone pieces for my home at a fraction of the cost I would have paid buying new.

So today I partnered with Home Right to give one of you lucky ducks the chance to try this tool bundle that will have you painting like a pro!

This post contains some affiliate links for your convenience. Click here to read my full disclosure.

The Home Right Finish Max was the first of these tools that I ever owned and I love it!

I’ve taken on big jobs with this sprayer! This cabinet that I turned into a bar for our dining room is my favorite, but I also updated out interior doors with a fresh coat of white paint (and a perfect finish) with it!

I recently tried out the spray shelter too. I had no idea that the thing would be big enough to spray really large pieces of furniture, so I started out with this small piece.

I guess now that I know I have a space to paint it, I’ll be on the hunt for a big ol’ piece of furniture!

And of course the good people at Home Right must know that the worst part of any DIY project is the clean up. So they created a cleaning kit that attaches right to your faucet so you can easily clean your sprayer.

(Enter the voice of the DJ guy on The Price-is-Right) And all of this can be yours! All you need to do is enter the giveaway below!

Did you hear him in your head?

Now get to entering and good luck!

Unfortunately the sprayer was very hard to clean, and when I tried use it last year for my kitchen cabinets it was a total disaster.

    I plan to paint some old garage storage units to use in my craft room. After that, I want to spray paint the inside of an old shed (floor, walls, and rafters) to transform into a party room. YAY!!!

    BTW….I love your blog. You have so many wonderful and inspiring ideas!!

    What an awesome giveaway! I have an armoire and buffet cabinet waiting for a makeover and I’d probably give my kitchen cabinets another coat since I gave up on painting them by hand!

    What a great giveaway! I really , really, really would put this to good use: I have a ton of secondhand furniture waiting in the garage to be upcycled with a fresh coat of paint. This would get the job done much quicker!

    I have always been curious about sprayers and how much extra work it is but this kinda looks cool, I especially love the spray tent. I think I will have to bite the bullet and give it a go one day. Thanks for the tips!

    I plan to paint anything & everything. Especially if it’s as easy as I have read it is.

    I plan to paint my son’s rocking chair, and then a couple dressers that need to be refinished.

      I’ve done both a rocking chair and the drawers of a dresser and the finish is awesome! High five and best of luck with the giveaway!

    SUCH a great giveaway Corey! I can think of a million things I’d paint with this, starting with a beautiful antique buffet table and hutch I’ve been meaning to tackle for ages!

    I love your blog and super do-able ideas! Thanks for the inspiration. What a great kit to update old furniture. I have a mirror that needs updating – would love to see what I can do using this set!

15 minutes is all it takes to… Clean out a draw 15 minutes is all it takes to…  Clean out a drawer, a cabinet, or quickly flip through your closet and grab a small bag of items you don’t need or want…  …and the impact of 15 min. rapid fire decluttering sessions adds up quickly, even after just a couple days!  Last night I cleaned out two drawers while the oven was preheating for dinner (did you see me in action on stories?) They were two drawers near our drop zone where things started to get stuffed and one of the drawers I use daily since I keep my notebook with the weeks meal plan, to-do lists, etc so it was driving me nuts that it was getting to be a chaotic mess.  So I set my timer for 15 min. to tackle it and not only did I get that one drawer done, I got the drawer next to it done and everything that didn’t belong in the drawers put away in its proper place!  The moral of the story is, you don’t have to set aside entire afternoons to clear the clutter and get organized. It can be done ones 10-15 min. session at a time.  So that’s what I’m doing. I’ve committed to a short decluttering session every day for the next week or so.  Join me! Give me a thumbs up if you’re in!  #declutter #declutteringtips #decluttering #takebackmyspace #organizedspaces #organization #organizingtips #homeorganization #clearouttheclutter #cluttercontrol
Just when I thought I couldn’t take any more of Just when I thought I couldn’t take any more of what 2020 has had to offer it’s continued to come in full force. The Rona 😷 has officially infiltrated our home (my husband has it) which put me into panic mode 🥺 trying to get everything for Christmas totally ready and all my biz stuff wrapped up for the year knowing I’ll probably get sick too.⁠
⁠
Then to top it off something broke with our sprinklers in the front yard and they wouldn’t shut off. Thankfully I noticed right away and my amazing gardeners came over to help fix it but with the sun going down and not having all the parts they needed, and a bigger problem than we thought we have been without water. —They came back first thing this morning though (did I mention they’re awesome) and fixed everything up so I get to turn the water back on in about an hour and oh man is it going to feel good to take a shower (and a deep breath).⁠
⁠
So far me and the kids don’t have any symptoms so I’m staying focused and getting all my to-do’s done so I can go into next week ready to enjoy Christmas in total quarantine and have time to get sick if that’s what’s coming my way.⁠
⁠
It’s the weirdest thing to be planning to get sick, but it’s where I’m at! Hahaha!⁠
⁠
Hope you are all staying healthy (and sane)!⁠

Today I want to tell you why I started sticking to Today I want to tell you why I started sticking to a color palette in my own home.⁠
⁠
It wasn’t just because it allowed me to make quick decorating decisions, work with decor I already owned, and stay within my budget.⁠
⁠
✔️It's because color is the fastest way to create a look that flows from one room to the next and make my home feel really good.⁠
⁠
My home definitely didn’t get to where it is today overnight, but if I had to narrow it down to THE ONE THING that catapulted me in the right direction with my decor it’s when I finally figured out COLOR. ⁠
⁠
A thoughtful color scheme can create a nice flow from one room to the next, which is great, but color is also scientifically proven to affect your mood. ⁠
⁠
WHEN YOUR HOME FEELS GOOD, YOU FEEL GOOD!⁠
⁠
Let me ask you...👇🏼⁠
⁠
💭How do you currently feel in your home and how do you want to feel?⁠
⁠
Think about it for a second.⁠
⁠
💭Is the way your home feels now holding you back from the way you want to feel, things you want to do, or people you want to spend time with?⁠
⁠
I know there’s a bigger reason behind creating a beautiful home you love.⁠
⁠
And I bet it has nothing to do with impressing guests.⁠
⁠
Maybe for you it’s creating a space to really recharge, spend more time with family and friends, or to inspire more creativity.⁠
⁠
So what is it for you? Tell me in the comments.⁠

I read this morning that you are the culmination o I read this morning that you are the culmination of the 5 people you spend the most time with...⁠
⁠
...hmmm...does that mean I act like a 7 and 10 year old cause lord knows we've been together A LOT lately? 🤣🤣🤣⁠
⁠
But really, joking aside, are you intentional about who you surround yourself with?⁠
⁠
Do they light you up, inspire you, and teach you things?⁠
⁠
As uncomfortable as it is sometimes, I'm a huge fan of surrounding myself with those who know how to do things I want to learn. (And of course I'm a huge fan of spending time with people who I can share my know how with too.) ⁠
⁠
So now the question is, who are you becoming?⁠
⁠
Just something to marinate on today...⁠

My whys right there👆🏽 . We're evolving into My whys right there👆🏽 . We're evolving into a new phase where these two are helping out more and more around here and I'm loving that they take a certain pride in our space. ✨⁠
⁠
Of course we've got a set up that allows lots of play, messes, and "chill time" as my 7 year old calls it...⁠
⁠
...and although they may not be able to pin point it, I can tell that they too feel really good in our home and keeping it organized and feeling good, makes them feel good. ⁠

Creating a home you want to be in takes time, but with smart choices and a little patience it can happen.⁠
