6 Small Paint Projects with Big Impact
Posted on June 24, 2019
Good weather has us jazzed up for new painting projects. Take an afternoon and a small amount of paint to create one of 4 small paint projects with big impact.
Beautiful Bench
Get a bench, whether upcycled, garage sale or found and give it a face lift with some paint. This paint project can be used inside or outside. Be creative with how you paint it. Think beyond just a once over color – step up your style with a monogram, stencil or other design.
Give Life to a Lamp
With the advent of upcycling, more and more homeowners are headed to thrift stores and swap meets to find unique picks. There are a lot of lamp bases available at these places. Find one and give it a makeover with new paint. Take a timid white and go bright with green or blue. Add a lamp shade to tie it in with your room. It’s a bright idea!
Distressed Dresser
Dressers are always a welcome addition in a bedroom. Anywhere to hide jeans and t-shirt messes will help your room look put together. Get any old dresser and take it apart for paint. Creating a useful piece of furniture in a color you love will bring style and life to your room.
Boring Bookcase
Bookcases provide a way to get creative with color without putting it right in your face. Take a bookcase for your office or living area and go wild with a color on the back face of it. This will create a peek a boo style for your room that’s not as in your face as painting the whole shelving unit.
Awesome Art
Another good thrift or garage sale find to paint is artwork frames or picture frames. Think beyond browns, blacks and whites. Try a sunny yellow or a bright blue to tie in a wall installation made up of your favorite pictures and art pieces. Add a bulletin board or white board to make it interactive.
Luxurious Laundry
Pick a fun color and decorate your laundry room while adding functionality. Add a table, some floating shelves and hooks on the wall all in a pop of fun color. Your laundry won’t be boring anymore! Plus, you’ll get the added storage to neatly tuck away cleaning supplies, clothing hanging to dry and other items.
