Primp Your Stuff Wednesday Linky Party # 51


Happy Wednesday! It's time to link up all your fabulously primped projects, including anything you have made, or made to look better, or anything you have found to {primp} your space.


Here's my favorite from last week's party:

Somewhat Quirky transformed a plain dresser into a fun and colorful planter!




Thanks for the inspiration!

plain garage door to carriage doors {how to primp your garage}

We just primped our garage doors.



Here's the before:



and just 10 minutes later:






I love the character it gives two simple garage doors.


The  inspiration came from this post (and which I pinned here).  I originally bought the hardware from Home Depot but was disappointed because the longest I could find the hinge/strap pieces were 8".  I searched online and ultimately bought this kit, which included longer 12" straps, which I really wanted, and for half the price of what I had paid at Home Depot.  For about $50 and only a few minutes of our time, we've added a lot of character to otherwise plain garage doors.  See what a little primping can do?

my new favorite decorating book

Here is my new favorite book {decorating book, that is}, Love for Textiles by Ikea.




It has a great combination of vintage furniture, beautiful fabric, and tons of fun styling.




Lots of yummy fabrics made into pillows.




And just plain cool photos.





Love it!

Speaking of books, I just finished this one, and can't wait to get the sequel.  What are you reading?
