Hey hey! Welcome back to the first installment of the second half of Feature Friday! Make sense? If you’ve been with me for a while, you know that Feature Friday has been around for a while. I stepped away from it for a minute, but I miss it. And I miss highlighting readers. So it’s back! And it’s goooood.
If there’s a feature I love, it’s one who is a crazy visionary and one who says, “I followed your painting tutorial” to make it look that way. Just sayin’… Alicia from The Swedberg Project e-mailed me a while back and showed me a be-u-ti-ful project she took on. And believe me—it required vision.
She turned a consignment vanity into this! I’m not gonna lie. The girl knows how to accessorize (that mirror!!), but the vanity is really the show stopper.
She followed the directions I gave for my grandparents’ buffet, and (like me) swears by the final product! She did use water-based primer, however. That will be good to know for those of you who can’t find oil-based!
Alicia found the classy, sophisticated, perfect knobs for $2.00 at Hobby Lobby. Great choice, eh?
Thankfully, she included some close-up shots so you can see the details. It’s just a fantastic job, and I’m SO thankful she shared it with us!
Alicia is building (done building?) a house, so maybe we can convince her to share more of it with us. Peer pressure at its finest, right? Please go visit and tell her how awesome she is! 🙂

That IS worth building a room around! The size alone is wonderful, plus how perfectly it fit the space. Divine intervention for sure! The wall color, lamps, knobs, everything is perfect!
