I am THRILLED to announce my newest sponsor, and a give away!! 7 Brushes, a $125 value. 1 Lucky Winner!!!!
ChalkPro Products Brushes!
Mike and Kristen Luchsinger have been painting professionally for years, but could never find the perfect paint brush. After much research, they decided to develop their own line of wax and paint brushes. I have several of their brushes, and I can’t wait to order more. These brushes are the first brushes I reach for. When it comes to painting and waxing brushes, quality makes all the difference in your end result. ChalkPro Products brushes are the best brushes I have ever tried. ChalkPro Products are giving away an entire Brush Set. You don’t want to miss this chance to get a set of these amazing brushes for FREE! After you check out the features, check out the giveaway and check out ChalkPro Products website!
Onto Le Features!
I am in the market for new Roman Shades. I am so happy Maison De Pax shared this fantastic tutorial! She used the existing mini blinds shade she had in her home. Drop cloth, and craft paint. They look like expensive custom made shades now!
I am in love with this adorable little writing desk and stool from Vintage Prairie Style. The details make the difference here. She cut up lots of book pages and decoupaged them onto the drawer front, and check out the legs on the stool! I love Julia from 551 East Furniture Designs, she took a break after having a baby, but it looks like the break only increased her talents! Check out her “Barb” piece, a tribute to Barb Blair from Knack Studios. I think Julia has a follow up post to show you how to achieve this too! Back when I used to do more custom work, I would have loved a client to ask for something like this project from A to Z creations. So FUN! She took a boring Oak Wardrobe and turned it into a one of a kind creation. This is a “Why Didn’t I Think Of That” moment! From Confessions of a Serial DIYer, she shares how EASY it is to make your own piping and add it to chairs. Love it! I can’t get enough of French Provincial Style Furniture, and Pneumatic Addict did it again. Not only can Elisha build furniture, but wow can she paint it too! I love the combination Elisha used. CeCe Caldwells Young Kansas Wheat and Simply White. And the best part? No sanding or priming. It looks gorgeous!

Nice features, Karen! Thanks for hosting! I’ve been wanting to try the CeCe Caldwell paints. I think there is a booth that sells it where I have my booth, so I need to stop by there and pick some up. The brushes look great.
I have a set of the brushes and LOVE them. I just about wore out my wax brushes so I am needing a new set. Hope I win!!!
The question for the comment said what would string art do for you. I remember learning how to do string art at Girl Guides. Wow, long time ago now. I love what you do at Redoux and have been a follower for years. What an awesome giveaway
Maybe a kittie!
thanks so much for the feature!!!! you’ve made my night!
Thanks for the party!
Roman shades is now on my list of to-do’s!! Love the giveaway opportunity, you can never have enough paint brushes!
Would love to win the brushes. Not sure about having string art–maybe my last name?
Thanks!

I need those brushes in my life! So many projects to use them on. SO MANY it ridiculous! String Art…not on my project list-yet! 😀
Thanks for the giveaway and chance to win some awesome new brushes!!
Thank you for the feature Karen! After being gone for so long it’s a HUGE boost of confidence. You made my night…thank you for your awesomeness!
Thanks for much for featuring my dresser Karen! I don’t know where you find the time to write such nice comments about all of us. Those brushes look awesome! I could definitely put them to good use!
Thanks for a chance to win such a great prize. I’m so new at painting furniture/home decor items, but the one thing that I’ve realized is the brush makes all the difference.
String art? Well, I would love a large one of the United States with the focal point on where we live.
Hi Karen – Are CeCe Caldwell paints available in Canada? Thanks for the party.

What a phenomenal giveaway!!! I love my brushes and would love to have these.
Thanks for a chance to win some wonderful new brushes!!!
You know I love ya. And your blog. Pick me ! Pick me !
I know it’s automated. But I’ll be thrilled and tickled if I can get these brushes to start on my first projects. I’m so afraid of everything that I’m scared to just get started. The right tools should help immensely.
Thanks for hosting the blog, Karen !
Love these projects!!
Hi Karen, great features, thank you so much for hosting. Have a great weekend!
Jeannie
Pick me please!!!
I desperately need a go to brush! That way I will be excited about cleaning it!
I would create sting art from spaghetti
noodles to mimic the dinosaur that we didn’t buy at the swap meet ! what would you make from string art Karen? such an interesting question…. and this giveaway is nothing to brush off lightly 🙂 wowza!!!
I would like a string art sailboat… very large one, like really really big one 🙂
Thanks for a great brush giveaway… and thanks for hosting… love your blog and the great Redoux!
Have a great weekend!
So stinkin’ happy to have been featured with such talented ladies! Thank you Karen and congrats to all the beautiful features!
Oh my gosh, LOVE that music dresser and the peacock finish on the console table and I love love love the wardrobe. Doing something like that has been on my list for quite some time now.
I would make a hanging lmap with string art/
I love your features of course but I also LOVE those brushes! I’m sitting here drooling over them as I think about my own cheap ones. Not very lucky at winning things so it must be my time! Blessings to you my funny friend, Patti@OldThingsNew
Maybe some new brushes would get me out painting while the weather is nice….
The first thing I would paint would be … hard to say. I am a dumpster diver too and have LOTS of things to paint and recreate. Believe me, the brushes would be put to good use !
I have been wanting to try these! Crossing my fingers and toes! My readers would love a review of them!
What a fantastic giveaway! I have a barn and a half FULL of projects – these brushes would certainly come in handy to help me get a few knocked out (and let my husband have a little more of his space back!) Thanks much for a chance at winning.
Hey! Do you know if they make any plugins to protect against hackers?
I’m kinda paranoid about losing everything I’ve worked hard on. Any suggestions?
Hey there, You’ve done an incredible job. I will definitely digg it and personally suggest to my friends.
I am sure they’ll be benefited from this web site.
