– Upgarding a bookcase

11 / 25 / 141 / 19 / 18

I got this bookcase from IKEA long time ago ( when I used to like IKEA style) so after a while, I started getting bored with it.

 
 
So after seeing a lot of bookcase with wallpaper added to the back on BlogLand , I decided to do the same, so I bought these vinyl paper from Homegoods and it was a very easy task with the help of my husband. Just remove the back of the bookcase and stick the vinyl and VOILA. Best decision ever

Bye Bye IKEA, AGAIN

1 / 5 / 121 / 19 / 18

Silver accents were always my favorite. My love for gold finished pieces was minimal until my sister and I went on a furniture shopping tour back in Lebanon. After pointing out some elements of the furniture, my sister’s passion for gold became contagious. I came back to the US and the first thing that I wanted to do was transform my house into a golden palace ( well at least one room, the living room). Let it shine, I said.

So I thought that I have to get rid of those cheap looking IKEA black metal tables. First I painted them, added 2 custom mirrors.

                               Below is the inspiration picture:

And I got to say: Bye Bye IKEA, AGAIN !!!!!
 
 

 

 

 

So now I have in the living room Gold and Silver accents and I love this combination, what about you? Do you like just one finish?Which one do you prefer?Or you are like me a mix and match girl?

 You can check out here my first Bye Bye IKEA series 🙂

– Bye Bye IKEA Hello Macy’s

9 / 22 / 111 / 19 / 18
Don’t you just love Nailhead trimmed furniture ????


Last year the husband and I went shopping for a sofa. I fell in love with the blue Loveseat at Macy’s called ” Jaqueline Loveseat ” especially the nail head trim but my husband didn’t like it at all, so I had to search for another alternative 🙁



We ended up buying an off-white loveseat at IKEA, and I added some blue throw pillows and accents pieces to have this hint of blue in the room. 


Ours with darker legs

This was a year ago, but I kept on thinking about the Jacqueline Loveseat, so Yesterday I had an idea how to make this IKEA a Macys:

 


I bought Upholstery Nails at Home Depot (5 boxes) for $1.30 each.


This is the before:



How to apply the Nails was so easy, since I didn’t have the proper tools: the mallets and needle nose pliers, I used what I had in hand: Hammer and Scissors.

I hold the Nails in place with the scissors ( instead of the needle nose pliers) and then pound them gently with the hammers ( instead of the mallets). To have an equal spacing between each nail I had to use a spoon handle ( check out the below picture)

 
 
 
 
 

 

So finally I got to say BYE BYE IKEA HELLO KITTY..hmm I mean HELLO MACY’S
