Goodwill Furniture Makeovers and A New Series

June 1, 2011

    

Today, I’m wrapping up my contributor gig over at the Wow! Goodwill blog with a round up of some great furniture and accessory makeovers.  Check it out here.

Speaking of great makeovers, I came across these images from Jill’s blog, Live Like You.  While she already owned this desk, it reminds me of the one my sitter found at Goodwill a couple of months ago.  Just look at the potential:

And, check back tomorrow.  I’m starting a fun, new series based on this post from last week.  Each week, you’ll see one of your favorite design blogger’s spaces way back when. . . .

    I love “livelikeyou” and that desk is nothing short of fabulous. I hope you will share what your sister does with it!

    That series is going to be so fun–and possibly funny! Great idea, Emily.

    curious to see the new series. I do a series called flashback fridays (every friday), and started to feature other bloggers, but found that lots of people simply don’t have photos of their spaces way back when!
