Art is Beauty on Instagram: "Happy Monday! Quick makeover for you to start your week! When I picked up this piece, it was not the normal type of piece I would buy. But my kids have been into what we call “Grandma core”. And just like I thought when I brought this home, I was told multiple times by my kids and my son’s girlfriend how much they loved the old tole painting on the front and how I better not touch it. So I decided since this seems to be the hip new vintage thing to just fix and update the base. They all loved it and now I will have to sneak it to my booth before they all notice :). #paint #paintedfurniture #furniture #furnituremakeover #tole #tolepainting #diy #makeover #grannycore #grandmacore #vintage #vintagestyle #vintagehome #vintagedecor #insta"

Art is Beauty on Instagram: "I can’t believe we got it done. It took 3 days and some frustration but we figured it out as we went along. The old greenhouse style panels were no match for Michigan winters and springs. I got sick of looking at it and finally decided to go ahead with an idea I had for a while. We needed more shade but still wanted some light. We took reed fencing. Cut it to fit and laid our roof panels on top and secured them with bolts. I cant believe how much more warm and inviting it feels. Looking forward to summer nights and listening to the rain patter on the roof while relaxing underneath 💜 #summer #pergola #awning #backyardoasis #summertime #mybackyard #outdoors #upgraded #awnings #warmweather #entertaining #outdoordesign #summerliving☀️ #homeprojects #diy #di
