Custom Logo Design Giveaway! {Enter Today}

Yeah, I know this is my birthday week, but I couldn't resist giving something away to a lucky reader!!

 Do you have a business/shop/blog that needs a logo?

Here's your chance to win one for free!!

And not just ANY logo...a custom one, just for YOU.

How? Easy! Just enter the giveaway below and cross your fingers :)

As a primarily self-taught designer, I love helping others brand their shops and businesses. My shop has blossomed this past year and I like to think it's because I take a very personal approach to working with people. Customers need to know who you are, not just what you sell.

A logo can do just that!

 

The winner of this awesome giveaway will get to work with me as I create a custom logo just for them! Every logo is unique and original. I NEVER duplicate the final designs. Every person is different, therefore, every business is different. You won't get a cookie-cutter design that's just manufactured over and over for different customers. 

The winner will receive the logo as two files:

PNG (transparent background/watermark, like the first photo of the post)

JPEG (white background, like the second photo of the post)

Also, the service includes unlimited samples and revisions, so you WILL get something you love.
 This is a $50 value, folks!

As always:

To have ONE entry, you MUST be a follower of this blog. Click "Join this site" on the right toolbar-----> 

Good luck ya'll!!

DIY Revamped Nursery Dresser

Okay ya'll, remember at the beginning of the month when I shared this post about the new paint in the nursery and this teaser pic of the revamped dresser:

It's not a HUGE change that you can really tell in photos, I guess...I mean I didn't go from white to lime green damask or mod podge the entire thing in gold fabric...but trust me, sometimes all something needs is a little refresher, not a huge facelift...

Here's how my awesome vintage dresser looked before:

Not too shabby, right?

Confession time; I LOVE this dresser! It was a freebie from an old boss who is an interior designer. When I got my first apartment five years ago, I was helping her clean the studio basement (talk about an artist/designer's dream! Vintage furniture, luscious fabric scraps and then some...oh yeah.)

when she spotted the dresser and says "Hey, if you want this, you can take it for free."

"Uh, what? DUH!!"

I said in my mind, when in actuality I tried to put a cool face and eased a simple "Sure..."

This baby was mine! I painted it white and spray-painted the original hardware silver.

BUTTTTTTT....cut to now, and the dresser just needed a little TLC and some color to match my baby boy's room. See the paint chipping and white fading? That's not cute...or safe.

  First thing's first, I took all the drawers out and unscrewed the hardware.

 See the nice pile of silver knobs? I can't part with them...they are originals, people!!

Such sweet detailing, and they remind me of mini door knockers hehe

Anyways...

I laid out the drawers to be painted. The original piece only had the paint done halfway...so I stuck with it. Eh, why work harder if they didn't? Right? Psh...

I used the same paint that I used on the trim...it's not a bright white, but it's called "Frost" from Behr. Totally the perfect shade of white if you are not wanting stark-hospital-room white...you know what I mean!

**Note: I'm a pregnant goober and "thought" I took a photo of me actually spray-painting the hardware a candy red color...fail. So I'll just take you to the after look, where you'll see them anyways**

TA-DA!! Ahhh what a refreshing look!

Instead of chipped/faded white, we now have a new fresh "Frost" white and instead of drab silver hardware, we're poppin' with some red ones, yo. Fo' realz...

I'm DYING to show you all the cool tutorials and stuffs I'm making for my lil' man's nursery. I'm trying to give you a little at a time as to not blow your brains out with my awesome makeover skillz (you're welcome btw) ;)

So that is all until next time...let's move on to why you are really here, shall we?

 THE NEARLY GROWN PHOTOGRAPHY WINNER!!

**drum roll pleazzzeee...and thank you...**
