Home: A Painting Tour

Who would have thought choosing paint colors is hard? Firstly, a range of colors is available, like even white has so many shades to choose from… where do you even start?

When we were deciding to move into our first home, I knew I wanted it white. The original color was sort of yellowish:




Craft Room Doodle wall

As soon as I had my own space for myself, I had to make it my own. Whether you have your own studio or a corner of your bedroom for your crafting, I feel this is a must to personalize your creative space and let the ideas flow. So, what better than to paint a wall? I did not want to simply paint it a color since I had already done that in other parts of my home. This had to be UNIQUE, so I went about scribbling for some ideas.

Upcycled thrift store find: Craft storage caddy

So, I love vintage finds, and I found this beauty at the Lost and Found Market, Melbourne. I am going to admit right now that I love thrift store shopping for random items with lots of character and unique designs.

Upcycled thrift store find: Kitchen caddy

I have been in LOVE with vintage (Provincial look-alike) random shabby chic items with lots of character. I found this caddy at (yes, you guessed it!) the Lost and Found Market, Melbourne and brought it home. At that point, I did not have any idea about what I wanted to do with it but I was in love with the design. I hated the burgundy color.. so uncool, and so NOT me!
