What inspired your latest home project~and a $100 giveaway!

Recently, I was given the opportunity participate in Crystal Light's Liquid Living Vibrantly Campaign.  I was asked to explore Crystal Light Liquid's flavor options and sample Crystal Light Liquid while searching for inspiration for a project that would bring flavor and vibrancy to my life.  My thoughts immediately went to sipping Crystal Light Liquid poolside with the kids this summer.

 In addition to my family, things that bring vibrancy to my life are a passion for home design and the hunt for a great find.  Funny how inspiration works: That very same day as I was unpacking backpacks, I was struck by a fantastic one-of-a-kind original painting by my son, Cameron. The colors were a "vibrant" combination of turquoise and red.  That art was my inspiration for this project, I immediately pictured a summertime home decor vignette inspired by his amazing art...




Of course, the piece would need a unique frame from one of my local thrift shops.
Cameron's art, a summertime decor vignette and a thrifting adventure, my "living vibrantly" project fell right into place.

Here it is…




Here's a behind the scenes look at how it came together...
Since Cam's art was the center of my project, I asked him to join me on the frame hunt.  Thrifting with Cam was a blast.  He found certain items particularly amusing…  
   



  He determined it was only fair that he got paybacks if I was going to photograph him popping tags.  So, here I am giving him the official we-found-the-perfect-frame thumbs up.




 Cam's original painting was a bit large, so we stopped at the office supply store and asked them to reduce the size to fit inside our frame. 




I removed the painting from our thrift store frame, spray painted it glossy black and inserted Cam's art, covered by a piece of pre-cut plexi glass. 




Using the art as my color road map, I created a vibrant summertime vignette in our living room bookcase.



  
I scored bright turquoise and red serving pieces in the clearance section of a discount home store.   




We are enjoying the new pop of color in the living room.  It has us excited for summertime entertaining.




What I love most is that Cameron's art is the center of this project.





Thank you, Crystal Light Liquid and Blogher for giving me the opportunity to sample the new Crystal Light Liquid and create a project that involved my three passions: my family, home design and a deal hunt.  My interpretation of "living vibrantly.

What inspired your most recent home decor project?

  1. One of our spare bedrooms had a leaking window. Turned out this was a blessing in disguise as it gave us an opportunity to gut that room, put insulation (which had never been done) and turn it into the coastal room that I had been dreaming of. There's a bigger closet now, and great shelves with a desk that is perfect for our grandchildren.

  2. We just installed board and batten in our office, and I am now looking forward to decorating it. I just purchased an old secretary and am picking out a fun paint color for it. Thanks for the chance to win!

  3. What inspired my recent home improvement project? A whirlpool commercial entitled "Teen Jeans". Love, love, love the crystal door knobs in the commercial, so I bought one off of eBay and installed in on a bedroom closet door.

  5. The inspiration for my project has been the bold black and white you use in your home. In particular, the striped curtains you replaced in one of The Yellow Cape Cod posts. I am anxiously awaiting a new sofa and love seat to arrive in a few weeks. My colors will be black & white, tan, and a pop of red. I've been preparing by purchasing new lamps, searching for the perfect black & white fabric to repurpose a side chair. I've found some matching storage baskets and I've spray painted them black. I have yet to repaint my living room. This is a big project for me and I'll have this summer to complete it. Oh, and I'm on a yard sale hunt for a coffee table to repurpose. I'll paint it black and use the storage baskets underneath. So much to do!! :)

    The best part of this project, however is that I'm able to gift my old furniture to someone in need. This person doesn't have any furniture. As soon as my new sofa and loveseat arrive she will be getting a sofa, chair & 1/2 and matching ottoman!

  6. We just painted our house-except for the dining room, so it's time for that room. I've been putting it off because I'd like to change it into more of a family room/reading area and I'm not sure how to do it. I moved some furniture around yesterday so that's the start!

  22. Seeing all of the chalkboard posts of various bloggers made me try my hand at chalkboard painting the glass of two large picture frames. I had also seen where one family had taken a large collage picture frame and placed pictures of family and friends in it that they pray for. So after the chalkboard paint was dry I hung them next to the collage picture frame in the hallway where we enter our home so that we can see our friends and family as well as special notes, reminders, inspirational quotes, or Bible verses. Happiness!!!

  25. I found an old four poster redwood bed on a FB buy/sell/trade site and was inspired by a picture I saw online of a bed painted with chalk paint. Found the paint (duck egg blue) and I'm now in the process of painting the bed and redecorating my 6 year old daughter's room around the bed. I can't wait to post pictures after I'm done.

  28. I redecorated our front entry based on a bug. Yes, an insect. I found a glass beetle (originally a Christmas ornament). It is a shimmering lime green & copper color. So I painted an accent wall chocolate brown, the other walls khaki, and I use lime green. off-white, and copper accents. I don't have a blog so I can't show you pictures, but it is my new favorite room. All because of a bug...

  48. The inspiration for my latest design update came from the fact that we live on my husband's family farm where cattle still graze. I am adding a white cowhide rug to my husband's man cave in the basement to set off the charcoal leather furniture and antique chest/coffee table.

  49. We are remodeling the kitchen. My kitchen cabinets have the corner "turn table" units; these are not the most efficient storage cabinets. I stored my pots and their lids on the top part of the turn table and the casserole pans on the bottom part of one of these cabinets. Sounds strange but over the years some of the lids somehow fell off them and ended up beneath the cabinet. They were impossible to retrieve until the cabinet was totally removed. The loss of 3 lids and my "whining" and frustration with the cabinet finally triggered our decision to remodel the kitchen. (My kitchen has other issues also so this renovation is going to be greatly appreciated.)

  50. I was trying to coordinate our living room and kitchen together. We had gray walls in the kitchen with white cabinets and then green couches. I want new couches but can't afford them right now. So when I found throw pillows that were green, gray, yellow and a reddish orange, I knew that was the perfect colors to tie the rooms together. So I found a couple accessories in yellow and red and it was perfect!

  65. My most recent home project was putting together a tall chrome shelving unit to hold my pantry goods, instead of having them in bags and boxes. My sister has the same shelves and wanted me to remember to put the lip of the shelf down, since she had to take it apart and make it the right way. The shelves reside in a back hallway alcove and have inspired me to tackle another room for organizing. My next project is framing a bright fabric to use as a picture on my wall.

  146. We had so much damage to our kitchen because of Hurricane Katrina we were in the final stages of putting it all together. I decided that it was time for a brand new look instead of the old one. I saw a beautiful red and yellow kitchen on HGTV one day and fell in love with it. I had never done such bold colors before so decided to give it a try. It is the most beautiful kitchen I have ever had!

  150. Several years ago I bought three white box shelves and a bunch of black frames from IKEA. I printed out a bunch of colored photos from a trip to Paris. The project just wasn't coming together and the frames went back in a closet. Last month when we got back from another trip to Paris, I got a new inspiration. I reprinted my photos in black and white and suddenly it came together. We hung the shelves, arranged the different sized frames and added a small globe and an old silver cream. The wall was finally complete.
