There are projects that fill your home… and then there are projects that fill your heart.

For a long time, I’ve dreamed about moving in a direction that was even more impactful than weekly furniture makeovers. Something that would allow me to use the business I’ve built to give back in a purposeful way.

Today, I’m excited to finally introduce Paint It Forward™.

I trademarked this name because I wanted it to stand for something meaningful. A commitment to using creativity, paint, and a little elbow grease to help support charities and organizations in our community through furniture transformations.

I chose a four-piece bedroom set as the very first official Paint It Forward™ project, and had the privilege of refinishing it for the Habitat for Humanity ReStore Nanaimo ... this allowed them to sell it and put the proceeds toward the incredible work they do in the community.

If you’ve been following along with me for a while, you know I believe almost every piece of furniture deserves a second chance. Now those second chances can do even more—they can help people, support local charities, and make a difference, one makeover at a time.

My hope is that this is only the beginning. I’d love to partner with more organizations and continue bringing forgotten furniture back to life ... not just because it’s beautiful, but because it can do a whole lot of good along the way !!

HOW CAN YOU HELP ?!

If you have a quality furniture piece in good condition that you’d like to donate to a future Paint It Forward™ project, I’d love to hear from you ...

Send me a DM or email, and together we can help turn an old piece into new possibilities.

Sometimes change doesn’t have to start with something big ... sometimes it starts with a paintbrush 💛

TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS WEEKEND 🖌️

1. If you invite Jennylyn and Loree from Fusion Mineral Paint to town, people will absolutely show up !!
2. Creative women are some of my very favourite people !!
3. When women choose collaboration over competition, really good things happen !!

It was such a pleasure to co-host an event with Ali from Blend Gathered Goods ... we welcomed Jennylyn and Loree of Fusion Mineral Paint all the way from Ontario, and the turnout was fabulous !!

The conversations were inspiring, and everyone had the opportunity to learn directly from the women behind the brand, ask questions, share ideas, and have their books signed too 📚

A huge shoutout and thank you to Ali for being such a wonderful partner in this event !! We both sell the same paint, yet here we are proving that supporting each other is far more fun than competing with one another !! There is plenty of room for all of us, and our painting community is stronger because of it !!

Big love to everyone who came out and spent this creative time with us. Whether you came for paint, the book, learning, or to meet Jennylyn and Loree, you helped make it such a memorable event !!

Honestly, women cheering each other on will always be one of my favourite things ... MY KIND OF DAY 🤩

AND ... if you’re looking for Fusion Mineral Paint, I’m proud to be Vancouver Island’s Diamond Retailer. You can shop online anytime (LINK IN BIO), choose local pickup by appointment, join me for classes and workshops, book custom furniture refinishing (in your home or my workshop) or book me for your next in home paint event !!

I look forward to working with you soon 🖌️💛

VINTAGE BIKE MAKEOVER

Remember when I thought I wanted a small garden ?! Yeah, me neither 😂

At this point, if it sits still long enough, I’m probably going to plant something in it 😜

This vintage bike was my latest project ... I primed it, gave it a fresh coat of one of my faves, Buttermilk Cream, and added some gold details because life is too short not to add a little sparkle ...
.. then i found the most perfect faux baskets (because i wanted them to handle all the watering), attached them to the front and back and filled them with beautiful flowers 🌼

Now it looks like I rode straight out of a movie and parked it in my garden !! Every time I look at it, I smile. There’s just something so magical about taking something old and giving it a brand-new purpose !!

Scott has stopped asking if we’re adding anything else to the garden and has moved directly to, “Where is it going?” 🤣 ... apparently 14 vegetable beds wasn’t enough 😳

Tell me I’m not alone in this ... what random thing have you turned into a planter ?! Or should I be concerned that I’m likely just one old wheelbarrow away from needing an intervention 😝

DINING ROOM MAGIC

This table and chairs is proof that a little paint and vision can completely change a space ✨

This dining table and chairs were ready for a glow-up, and I’m a little bit in love with the result. The soft and natural paint washed top keeps it warm and inviting, while the classic black chairs and base give it that timeless “pull up a chair and stay awhile” feeling.

These are the kinds of pieces I love most ... the ones that will see years of family dinners, long conversations, holiday gatherings, and maybe even a little crafting mess now and then !

Furniture like this doesn’t belong in the landfill — it just needs someone to see the potential ... I can help with that 🤩

✨ Spring CUSTOM BOOKINGS are available !!

I’m taking on a limited number of projects over the next couple of months ... I can work with you in your home or in my workshop !!

If you have a piece that deserves a second life, send me a message and let’s make it beautiful again !!

LAST CUSTOM OF 2025

There is something so satisfying about taking a piece with good bones and giving it a whole new story ✨

This vintage bathroom vanity was completely reimagined for a client using the color, Bedford, by Fusion Mineral Paint ... a rich, timeless color that instantly elevated the space. With a little vision, some hard work, the right paint, and my fave (the ONLY brush brand i use when working on furniture), even the most dated piece can feel fresh, beautiful, and full of life again !!

This is your reminder that transformation doesn’t always mean starting from scratch. Sometimes it’s about seeing potential, rolling up your sleeves, and trusting the process 🤍

And exciting news… **I’m now accepting bookings for custom furniture work in 2026!** If you have a piece you love (or one you want to love again), I’d be honoured to work with you to bring it back to life.

BEFORE AND AFTER (swipe for before)

I love working on custom pieces for my clients, and this little liquor cabinet was ready for its next chapter ... a fresh coat of Buttermilk Cream by Fusion Mineral Paint was just the reimagining it needed !

I love how this soft, creamy neutral instantly lightened it up, while still letting the character shine through. Proof that a thoughtful DIY and the right paint can completely change the story of a piece ✨

Would you style this as a liquor cabinet again… or turn it into something new?

BEFORE and AFTER

Our home was built in 1960 and the kitchen is SMALL, a little awkward and original ... but it's cute and we love it !!

HOWEVER ... it needed a fresh new look and WOW — what a transformation! It’s so much brighter, lighter, and full of happy vibes now 💛

I painted the cabinets, added cute little vintage door pulls and this super fun wallpaper behind the stove ... SUCH a big change !!

Paint is one of the easiest ways to completely change a space. This was a weekend project that anyone can do, and i am obsessed the difference 🤩

If you’ve been thinking about a refresh, this is your sign ... and I am happy to help !! Reach out if you're looking for instruction on how to do this in your home ... or if you need the supplies to do it 💛

PAINT: Buttermilk Cream by Fusion Mineral Paint

WOULD YOU PAINT YOUR KITCHEN ?!
