Sometimes all it takes is a little paint......
a somewhat lackluster and worse-for-wear cube shelf from West Elm
and VOILA! A new "frame" to showcase your favorite tschokes. A mini gallery.The color does not show up well in these photos, but I was aiming a shade or 2 lighter than a "Tiffany box" blue and this came out just right for me - a rarity with paint colors. Recession or not, I am all about transformations with the existing. It can be so gratifying when it comes out well! Do you have anything laying around that just needs a little "face lift"?

Wow - that is inspiring! One of my favorite shades of color.
A very nice and cool blue! Also a great project.

What a happy spring color lift! That's a clever little frame for changing around the things that inspire you. I have a few things that could benefit from a little spring paint.
What a lovely choice of colour! Love it! =)
Just what a need - a fresh coat of paint. That would be sweet wall papered too. I am lurving a certain paper now. Do you like wall paper, Anne?
what an upgrade, too cute!
that is not only pretty as can be but it is thrifty too! great inspiration, thanks!!
I love it! The color is perfect and I like the items you displayed in it. So pretty. Makes me want to get my paintbrush out today! :-)
Anne, You quickly grabbed my attention with that can of paint! You are right, blues can be funny. Just painted master bathroom a lighter shade of "Tiffany" blue. One of my favorite colors. Still trying to get used to it. Thinking it would have been smarter to have used a color more complimentary to the complexion in that area.
Your project turned out just great!

Thanks to EACH of you for your wonderful comments and feedback. i so appreciate it! The paint color is "Weathered Glass" and is actually an Eddie Bauer color available at Lowes.
Love your project. I have been looking for a good light Tiffany blue to lighten up my dinning room. I'm so excited about your recommendation of Weathered Glass. I will check it out. Thanks for the tip.
