Transformation Tuesday: How to Distress Painted Furniture

I use my Restoration Hardware style books in my decor all the time! You can get the tutorial by searching tea stained books on chiccalifornia.com Yes, tea! #vintagestyle #falldecor #decor #restorationhardware #farmhousestyle #interiordesign

I still have so many boxes to unpack and so much stuff to put away from our move. But I did accomplish this little vignette which is about the only little spot in my house that feels put together today. #decor #farmhousestyle #vintagestyle #falldecor

I must admit I have been a real Debbie Downer when it comes to all these posts I am seeing welcoming the fall season (especially the ones posted at the end of July-I mean give me a break!) I'm a summer girl! Then I went to Target yesterday and found these pumpkins in the Dollar Spot. Now I think I could get into this fall thing!! @target #september #fall #falldecor #pumpkins #chevron #gold #glitter

This little girl is so bummed that her basketball hoop is packed up. #boredbordercollie #nationaldogday #dogsofinstagram #dogs

The moving crew is here and packing everything up while this guy doesn't seem bothered at all. #beaudontcare #moving #allmyprettystuffisinboxes

Trying to come up with creative dishes to make using up the contents of my fridge. Believe it or not I only needed to get lettuce and blue cheese to make this Cobb salad. The rest was in my fridge. #salad #food #lunch

I've been putting off sharing this all summer but it's really happening. The movers come next week to pack us up for our new adventures in Vancouver Washington. Watch out Washington here comes Chic California! #moving #denial #goodbyebayarea #hellovancouver #neednewfriends

The sunglasses are to hide the bags under my eyes. #upallnight #partyanimal

Staying cool under the palms at the water park today but I'm thinking I might have to take a trip down the lazy river soon! #waterpark #California #summer #summerfun
