Before and After Furniture Ideas

I like before and after shots, so I plan on creating before and after shots with C on the furniture for our new place when we get married in June. We're not sure on where we'll be yet, but we are DIY prepared for when it happens! We would like to create black furniture through the tutorial here. It seems easy enough. After snooping around on a few blogs here are some of our ideas for our future place (hopefully it won't take a few years to do this because I need everything to match and look like a magazine or else I might lose it). So, if you see any furniture for free that we could use, or anything that you'd like to donate that you aren't using...then we'll paint it and use it in our future house! :) The plan is then to add fun little knobs and such.

Before and After Door 

- one large drawing instead of these little drawings

- paint our door number on the door

Before and After Kitchen

- cabinets painted black with stainless steel everything else

Before and After Barstools

- paint all chairs black

Why black? Well black goes with everything and C and I love popping colors, so we'll add colorful pillows and such to everything.

Dressers

End Tables

Before and After Chairs

(rocking chairs for a few years in the future and reading)

Turn a chair into a swing

And yes, I created the before and after pictures by compiling them together into one picture via photoscape, but I did not take these pictures. I just typed in before and after furniture into images.google.com.
