Mad for Mod

 May 3, 2011

Don't be scurred to paint mid-century modern furniture. Sure, the style lends itself to sleekness and simplicity, but if it's warped and rocking water stains, and you just feel like painting it apple green, well ... I won't tell.

I think this makeover by Hannah is spot on. Bright and happy, but still in keeping with the streamlined feel of the original look. If she had covered it in modge-podge and scrapbook paper and screwed in big crystal knobs, I might have choked on my cereal a little bit. But this is perfecto! Check it out on her blog A Handmade Childhood.
