I love your Sunday posts! There’s so much talent out there, and I wish I had more of it! I actually just finished a credenza, and painted it Vibrant Day Lilly (orange). I got the credenza from a girl I worked with who couldn’t take it with her when she moved. Anyhow, when she saw it, she saw what it could be, and had your inspiration on your blue credenza! I also fell in love with the look, and knew our credenza was born to have that style. I’ve posted it on my blog. Both before and after pictures are on there! Thank you so much for your inspiration!
