Next Project- Coffee Table Makeover

With starting a new job, I’ve been a bit slow at getting around to painting this coffee table. (For my day job, I work as a Wellness Coach. I love helping people become healthier & reach their own personal goals!) Now that I feel like I’m settling into my job a bit and my last craft show is over, things are a little less hectic now. I’m ready to begin some new projects!

Part of the fun for me, is dreaming up all the ways I can give it a brand new look. For this one, I think I’ll try something new. Maybe a fresh coat of paint with a glaze over it to bring out the details. 🙂 I’m still deciding the color, but hope to pick it out soon. Stay tuned for more updates soon!
What colors are you loving right now?

Here is the coffee table Before: If someone is interested in the Evansville, IN area, I can custom paint and you pick the color.

First Craft Show

It’s been awhile since I’ve posted anything on here. I thought it was due for an update. I have been posting more on Facebook and getting ready for my first craft show!
I’ll admit when I signed up for the show, I wasn’t sure if I’d ever do one again. However, it was a great experience and I LOVED being able to meet my customers! It was great to see how excited purchasing my items made them. Whether it was finding that perfect gift, an item with a fantastic childhood memory or a way to remember a loved one that has passed, each one had a special reason. I love creating that item that someone cherishes! With that said, I do believe I will try and have a booth at another show soon.
I will also continue to refinish furniture and do custom orders. If you have a piece of furniture you’d like refinished, please email me a picture and the dimensions for a quote. Email: GretchenLeighDecor@gmail.com

I want to Thank my customers. They encourage me to continue and keep painting! I hope to update my Etsy shop soon too with new items.
Any suggestions for items you’d like to see in my shop?
