I just love before and after furniture makeovers. To me they are “reloved” furniture.
It seems that paint and attention to detail can make all the difference in the world to a tired piece of furniture.
I’d like to show you some before and after projects.
Vanity Makeover:
Here was a tired old vanity. Vintage, yes. But in much need of some “reloving.”
In the makeover, paint and pretty decoupaged paper gives this old vanity a new and cheery look.
Estate Sale Desk & Mirror Makeover:
This estate sale desk and mirror makeover is remarkable. Confessions Of A Serial DIYer is one of the best at “reloving” furniture .
Her makeovers always blows my mind. With paint and transfers, she achieves what would be beyond my expectations.
Dusty Blue Painted Dresser:
Salvaged Inspirations is a blog that I like to visit as well. She takes makeovers to another level.
Reupholstered Chair Makeover:
Girl In The Garage is another DIYer I admire. I don’t see what she sees. But she gets fantastic results for old furniture I’d probably put at the curb and say good riddance to.
Just look how she transformed this old chair. Now I see it has good bones. But wow! She saw beauty where I saw a wreck.
Modern Farmhouse Entertaining Station:
I found this one over at the Better Homes & Gardens website.
This makeover is so inspiring. Not only was this piece of furniture “reloved.” But it was repurposed as well.
Magnolia Dresser Makeover:
This is another incredible makeover by Confessions Of A Serial DIYer. I think she sells many of her furniture makeovers, but I don’t think I would have been able to part with the one below.
Dresser Do Over:
I would probably not have given this dresser a second look. But someone did, and now look at the makeover! Stunning!
Outdoor To Indoor Coffee Table Makeover:
I really like this one. Someone took a simple patio coffee table, and made it beautiful to put indoors.
Now that’s what I call ingenuity!
I guess if you put your mind to it, you could recreate most anything. But I call these true “trash to treasure” makeovers by very talented individuals with vision.

LOL…..well it's pretty bad when I liked almost all the befores better. Haha – well it is a good thing we're all made differently or life would be so boring. I adore your sincere love of color, Brenda. I think of you every single time I see something really colorful now. Have a wonderful week. Hugs.
I love to see before and afters too. It amazes me how someone can take something that others might throw away and turn it into something wonderful.
Pretty! But I like the natural wood for some things too.
Ok, I'm going to be bad, I would of painted all the pieces except the first one and the small dresser one! Their wood grain to be should of been preserved.. that's just my take, the others are oh so cute.
Super makeovers Brenda. I remember my parents having that octogan shaped end table back in the 70's. Think they may still have it. Will have to keep this idea in mind when they decide to get rid of it! So cute. Thanks for sharing!

Wow! They are fabulous makeovers! I will be doing makeovers on just about every piece of furniture we have. The colours that you have used on your furniture and then the colours from these makeovers are the type of colours that I will be using. How a small amount of paint can bring new life to something is amazing! Thank you for sharing all of the makeovers!
Hope you are having a wonderful day! Give the pups a hug from me 🙂
