We all live in a yellow submarine.

Okay so maybe a submarine is a bit of stretch. The yellow part is dead on though.

Some of you long-timers will remember the thrift find turned yellow monstrosity that was highlighted over here.

Well, naturally, I became bored and, frankly, appalled by the BRIGHT-YELLOW-OF-THE-BLAZING-SURFACE-OF-THE-SUN that was the new, modern life I’d given to the table.

Three stages of transformation:

1) Raw. Damaged. Shameful.

yellow before1

2) Yellow. Kitschy. Offensive.

yellow after1

3) Pretty. (Old)New. PB-inspired.

third times a charm

What do you think? Should I lay off the rebirths?

You should come rebirth my house. That actually sounds a bit painful.

I love it. I would never, ever, (did I say ever) think of that.

Now I'm looking around my living room. I have just enough time to mess something up really, really bad (while I am trying to rebirth it) before my husband gets home.. then maybe he'll suggest BUYING a new piece of furniture... win, win... hmmm....

I say no to laying off the rebirth. Can't wait to see what it will be next time!

Love it! If you're in the mood and feeling inspired, why the hell not?

Makes me want to refinish something. Only, I don't have many items made from real wood (Aside from our still-crappy Ikea stuff). Particle board with veneer doesn't refinish very well.
