Kate is a lawyer turned mommy turned DIY blogger at CentsacionalGirl who is “on a quest for diamond style on a dime (…) one do-it-yourself project at a time”. Her blog is packed with fabulous budget savvy DIY projects such as this one: transforming her buttermilk yellow kitchen.

Julie from Shelter always manages to post such tasteful makeovers. Check out the before and after of this lovely vintage Chippendale chair. I love the colour choice, a trendy turquoise - Pantone colour of the year 2010 - just fabulous, don’t you agree?

DYI does not have to be difficult or complicated. I have found a fine example of an easy makeover performed on a couple of Ikea Träby units put together to create a credenza. Tyler Goodro from Plastolux is the man behind the simple and easy makeover, check out the original post here.
