A wise man once said, “Go big or go home.” Actually, that was probably just a No Fear t-shirt. Remember when No Fear was the coolest brand, like, ever? Maybe that was only at my high school … Anyway, back then I had a No Fear sweatshirt, but I thought I was so clever by unstitching the embroidery on the F, so my shirt just said ‘No ear.’ Sigh. That girl needed a hobby.
Anyway, what on earth were we talking about. Yes, going big or going home. Or, in today’s case, going bright and staying home! Check out these eye-popping makeovers that add a hearty gut-punch of color to their respective owner’s homes.
This first chartreuse lovely comes from Statia at Failure to Nap. Check out the whole story on her blog as to how she came to obtain what she calls “The Murder Dresser” and how it was formerly painted the color Ugly. It’s hilarious.

I wonder who started that. Here’s a glorious dresser set. Let’s go put it in the back yard and take a picture for posterity sake. 🙂

January 26, 2013 at 12:12 PMThanks for sharing these!! I had a good laugh over the murder dresser story. lol Love it by the way. 😉 Oh, and Amie, to answer your questions. I take pictures outside because my house is tiny and there’s no good place to take any pictures inside. Not to mention, it’s just prettier out there. 🙂 lol
