Sweet Lizzie Rose Two

Onward and Upward With Sweet Lizzie Rose

An eight hundred mile trip to finish Lizzie Rose's pretty little room. This cottage is over a hundred years old and built from brick. Without an investment in time these old houses can look forlorn and abused.

Chef Darcy of Silver Spoon Cakes from Salt Lake City requested this cute redo.

A dusty little room where the doors had never been framed, low ceilings and dirty brick were painted a light rose petal pink.

I painted and papered the little side table before leaving for Salt Lake.

This little one wished to live in a fairy castle. So out came the fairy dust to settle on pink painted brick as her very own personal kingdom.

The little $10. night stand was painted and papered before I brought her along. You can visit the befores and afters at:
 
Although I left my custom colored chalk paint in Oregon, Urghhh... Lizzies old dresser was smiling as she received the same treatment as the little side table. Paper and paint. Trying to match these colors in my custom chalk paint was a challenge. The dresser has a slightly different hue, but matches nicely.



Both little lamps were purchased without lampshades. Plain white linen shades were adorned with crystals and ribbon. The clear jar lamp was  finished, frilled and filled with pink feathers.
The pretty papers were chosen to embellish these now loved pieces.
I use water based poly instead of Modge Podge. I like the feel a bit better.
Thanks for visiting. sk on elderberry
