Something borrowed, something blue, some more chalk paint projects for you!
If you have been reading my blog long enough, you have figured out,
I am a big fan of blue. Pretty much every shade of it!
In our kitchen I just have a splash here, and a dash there.
I like to keep the flow going from room to room.
Let me show you my splash and my dash first...
 |
| Pottery set given by my FIL |
 |
| Rooster pitcher matching the platter behind the stove given by my Mom for my Birthday this year! |
 |
| Dollar tree vases |
 |
| Cobalt blue platter bought at Target a few years ago |
 |
| Deco Soup Tureen, my Mom scored for us! |
 |
| Cook book stand, bought also at Target way back when. Old cook book from the early 1900's, Some really neat recipes. Oh and my new vintage cheese grater I scored for 25 cents. |
 |
| You all remember these stools I decided to makeover in the Winter time right? |
 |
| You may also remember these stools I purchased from CSN from a giveaway |
 |
| well....I just had to try this color blue out. |
 |
| So I decided to redo the CSN stools. I of course made my own feed sack. This is temporary, as I do have some actual vintage feed sacks coming from my FIL. That guy has everything imaginable in his basement. Well he did, until he started giving it to us. |
 |
| Such a pretty shade of blue. I think it all ties in now. |
 |
| The boys of course noticed first thing. They thought they were pretty cool! |
Have a wonderful weekend everyone!
Hope I inspired you with some color!
Quick tutorial to follow soon.

Happy Anniversary! Enjoy it!!
I love the color blue of your stools. Great job Debbie! Thanks for sharing!
I was thinking white for my dining table and chairs, but the more I see the blue I might change my mind. Love the seat covers.
Such pretty pictures, Debbie! I like them all, but my favorites have to be the stools (which you did a great job on BTW), the platter, and the cookbook stand.
I'm a fan of blue too. It's my favorite color.:)
Hope you have a very happy anniversary, and many more happy years together.♥

Oh! very very lovely!!! I had to laugh when you said your FIL had everything imaginable in his basement...until...he gave it all to you :o) haha... I tend to bring home awesome treasures after visiting my dad. (Otherwise, he will cart it off to their church's second hand store! ...so I just have to have those treasures that bring back so many memories :o)
Great redos!
Blessings & Aloha!

Love the new bar stools! Great color, and I love your faux grain sacks! I'd consider keeping them, and using the ones from your FIL for some other projects. Thanks for sharing.
Happy Anniversary Debbie and Mike!

You have a beautiful kitchen.

first of all, happy anniversary! i love the whole wedding theme in your post title, too. the blue stools really pop in the kitchen, and the diy grain sacks are genius!
Hope you have a wonderful anniversary celebration! Love your new blue stools. I have got to try this paint! I'm not a big crafter or painter, but heck- this stuff looks foolproof, and by heavens- I AM a fool! LOL Of course, I love blue/white- so your platter and tureen just speak to me! Oh dear me- now I'm talkin' to stoneware....

I love them!!! They look amazing. Thanks for sharing. How on earth did you make your own feed sacks? Please share when you get the chance. Thanks for the inspiration!
What a great revamp. I love that color. I would love to try that paint. I was hoping to win some but so far no luck! It comes in such great shades!
Those turned out great Debbie! That blue is such a lovely color and goes great with all your accents.
Happy Anniversary!! Hope you two love birds have a special weekend :)

You've mastered creating flow with your touches of blue. Really great! And the stools? I love what you've done with them. Don't rush to replace the seat covers right away.
Wow, those feedsack seat covers you made are ADORABLE! I wouldn't change them out, you did such a great job on them! Glad you showed the Aubusson Blue, I was wondering what it looked like "in real life." I'm just dying to get my mitts on some chalk paint!
Best,
Kimberly
Love the "new" blue stools, but that soup taureen! I'm crushin' on that.
Your stools look great with their makeover! I am in the process of making over my counter stools too!
Hugs,
Penny

new seats turned out great...like the blue and the rooster -- recipe treatment on the fabric. Too sweet!
Love the stools painted blue! Great transformation!!
Jane
I love those stools repainted! You are a brave woman to redo something brand new!
Very,very nice Debbie! Loving that blue you painted them and you are right that blue in the kitchen just sets it off and it all just ties in so nicely like they were made to go in there. I love blue also, I think it is my favorite color besides gray. I tend to have splashes of red here and there with some grays and blue.
Those look fantabulous Debbie! :-) That shade of blue is so perfect in there and I think your gorgeous soup tureen needs to come over and visit at my house...and stay awhile! Thanks so much for linking this up to Inspiration Friday this week!
Vanessa
Your stools turned out so great...love the blue and the covers you made, too...and I'm in love with the deco tureen! Happy Anniversary!!

I love every shade of blue too! The stools turned out great. I have been procastinating about ordering the chalk paint. No more. That is one beautiful shade of blue. Thanks for the inspiration!
I love all the shade of blue things in your house. You're very inspiring, and creative!
Love all the blue! So cheerful! :) I'm also terribly jealous of that old cookbook- what a great find!
Just catching up with you a bit today. Your blues are so pretty and I love what you did with the barstools. Very cute! I hope you and your husband have a very Happy Anniversary celebration!
Blue is my favorite too, and I love all the splashes of it in your home. Those stools are wonderful; I think I'd find another spot for the real feed sacks you have coming. I love your homemade ones.
Debbie, I love, love, love the drop cloth covers that you have created for the stools! Such a great idea. Saving this post into my fav's for a future project.
