I love pink……one day in a moment of boredom (original post HERE.), I took my
THE PINK CABINET MAKEOVER
cost of this makeover – $12.00! |
sometimes it just takes a little color…TO make a BIG difference…look around you…
is there something that has just been sleeping away, over in the corner that you and a can of paint and 15 minutes could breathe new life into?
Well, What are you waiting for!!!!
Go for it…seriously…
What is the worse thing that could happen?
you hate it…you paint it again!!!!

HAVE SOME FUN!
HAVE A GREAT DAY!!!
AND
NOW, GO PAINT!!
I am in LOVE LOVE LOVE with your painted pink and white bookshelf. I’ve been wanting to do something similar for so long and haven’t been brave enough to do it! LOVE!!
I love what you did with your cabinet. I’m going to do mine in white on the outside and turquoise on the inside to go in my bedroom where I painted two of the walls an eggplant (purple). I LOVE LIVING A COLORFUL LIFE.
WOW I like the pink!! I’m usually a little leary of pink, but raspberry-pink is a good pink. 🙂 I’m a new follower, thanks for linking up to Roomspiration today! 🙂

That is fantastic! Good choice on the pink.
First – I am so jealous of your Target score. I ended up empty handed. I have never seen anything like that. Second…your room is absolutely awesome. LOVE the pink. I am your latest follower. I found you over at Roomspiration (I am hosting Monday’s leg of Roomspiration). I would love if you would stop by and say hi and consider following me back. Thanks.
Loooove the pink and blue in this room! And that zigzag couch… *sigh*… I’d use that couch in every single room. 🙂
Thanks for linking up to the roomspiration party today!
That totally could be in a magazine! Just devine. The pink is wonderful! I really love it all! We are sooo glad you linked up with Roomspiration today! 😀
Thank You so much, You all make me feel so good! And You are all so talented!
Wow! Wow! wow!! Love the pink! Love the Missoni!! So gorgeous! Would love for you to come share this at Feathered Nest Friday! 🙂
Wow, that pink made such an impact in that room! You’re brilliant, I don’t think that color would have crossed my mind and I love the way it turned out! Deb
Brilliant! LOVE it! 🙂
I love the pink and white combo.
I absolutely LOVE it! I too am a pink fan and can’t get enough of pink myself. Your cabinet turned out so pretty. Great job.
This is ADORABLE! It’s super chic but also very cozy and friendly. I may have to jump on the bandwagon and paint the inside of a bookcase a bright color because it makes a huge impact and everything inside the bookcase pops. Color me inspired!
Love everything in your room! I, too, am a pink lover, but the way you’ve put things together is what makes it look so good, not just the pink! New follower here! (dropped in from MMS’s party)
I love this! What a perfect color! Way to go bold.
Thats a terrific color! Love it!

And then I saw this & ohhhhhhh . . .how cool is that. LOVING your chevron sofa too – can’t wait to hear deets on that one! New follower – ya got me! {wink}

wow!! i LOvE the PinK ~ what a bold choice love love love!
Um, yes! Yes! YES! I love how it looks with the pop of pink! And your style? Love it!! I love the entire view!!
I LOVE this makeover! It was beautiful grey but the pink just completely spices it up. I really want to go paint something hot pink now! Thanks for sharing.
I just found your blog and love this makeover! The pink in the cabinet is amazing! I’m now following you!
I just found your blog as well and LOVE the bookcase. So darling. So much fun. Following now!
That is beautiful!!! Just saw it on pinterest.
I have a question on the light and shelving. I just added lights in my shelves in the kitchen but it only lights up the first shelf. I was thinking of adding glass shelves. In the picture it almost looked like your shelves had a light cut out in it. Curious about how you did it.
thanks!
LOVE PINK in an unhealthy way as well!! 🙂 Also LOVE your coffee table~~ did you make it? My husband still shakes head when I ponder the “Oops Paint” at the Depot because I know there will be a treasure… Thank goodness my sister inherited the same “Dumpster Diving Diva” genes!!
Thank you for your comments! The coffee table is actually from Ballard Designs! We stand on it…it is perfect for our motley crew!
So I have seen this bookcase ALL over Pinterest. I figured I had to check out the blog it belonged to! IT LOOKS GREAT and I love your space. I am your newest follower!!
ANGELA, THE coffee table is from Ballard Designs. Keep on dumpster diving! Thanks everyone for all of the great comments!
Lesli, I’m obsessed with what you did with your bookcase! The pink is such a great unexpected accent. Do you know the wall paint color in your living room? It is such a pretty, soft color. I would love to add your bookcase to my paint color galleries and include you in a feature. You wouldn’t have to do a thing, just let me know if you’re interested!
I love your blog, and we have a few things in common.. I love pink, wear it, paint it.. I have the same cocktail table from Ballard, one of the few things I have bought new, and we have the SAME avocado green 1974 wall ovens! I have had a love hate relationship with them.. this house, a beautiful stone wood ranch built in 1974, ovens are original. Though, I did buy reclaimed Dacor convections at Habitat store to put in this Dec.. I have been here since 1992, older and divorced after 28 years in 08, and re-doing the house bit by bit… I have a good guy friend who is going to help with the ovens.. they are an inch bigger and they do work, we checked. So.. you are not the only one with these ovens, and I have the avocado cooktop too.. Thanks for the inspiration!
The Living room wall color is “Spring in Aspen” . I have the “sister” color in the hall called “Feather Down” and “Maritime White”. They are incredibly soothing colors.
that cabinet is divine! and I also envy your domino magazine collection! donna
I love pink! And it follow I love this site. That bookcase is divine, the pink and white one. Such a great idea, I will never look at a “brown” bookcase the same. I will now see them in colors! Thank you.
Please follow my blog, comments are so welcomed too.
