The gold dining room is no more. In fact it hasbeen painted for several weeks now, white with a
band of pale aqua at the top.
New valances were the starting point for thecolor change. I have several rooms in tuscan gold
and wanted one room where I could but roses and pink
and aqua items.
This cupboard is now aqua too. Ilike it with my matte white McCoy pottery.
I am now living with the room for awhile
to decide what kind of chair backs or covers
to make. So stay tuned.
This is an idea I snitched from Rhea at http://sweetnshabbyroses.blogspot.com. She uses these cute little cheese coversto display or highlight an item on a pretty plate.
So , I was tickled when I found 2 of these at the
thrift store for a total of $1.28! I put one of my
favorite millinery flowers in this one but any number of cute
little treasures will do.
Well, that is it for now for the dining room.I would love to do the whole first floor, hey, the
whole house in this palette but I have some furniture
pieces that I can't get rid of for now. Some creativity
is needed. But for now, I have my one aqua/ pink room.

Hi karen!
I made it for a visit! :)
I love your Aqua cupboard especially. I too have collected McCoy white pottery. I have, I think just two swans, and a bunch of white pottery dish shapes for flowers etc.
I like how your cupboard truly highlights your pottery!
Enjoy your painting break!

Hi Karen, I just love your redo. It is so inviting and the colors are so pretty. That aqua cabinet with the white pottery is so fresh and gorgeous! I have done the cheese cover idea on plates and love it too. You are so talented and did a beautiful job!
