@ curiouslycuriousgeorgette:
So cute! Snoopy has a good home now.

When we bought our house we dug what we thought were stepping stones that had been grown over with grass...they turned out to be sink cutouts from pieces of granite. Odd.

The only other 'exciting' thing I've found in my backyard is a bunch of rotting apples that some enterprising squirrel forgot about. :)

LOVE chartreuse. I have been using it in spaces since I was 15! At that time I paired it with periwinkle and white, but now I'm doing chartreuse with hits of gray and other greens. <3

Gorgeous! If I had a cabin of my own, I'd want it to have qualities like this one. Thank you for sharing.

@omnombiscuits FTW!

I've always loved colour, but I'm a person that does neutrals for furniture. BUT, I am also in love with gray right now. We've just painted over the nasty pink-fleshy beige that the previous owners painted in EVERY ROOM (except the bathroom, which is the most boring and passive pale blue) with a light stone gray and hits of bold greens--lime and a fabulous colour by BM: Bonsai.

The dresser is beautiful! Good on you for seeing the beauty despite the missing drawer and worn finish. I, personally, don't care for shabby chic and would have loved to see it painted a solid bright colour (or that glossy black someone else suggested), but nonetheless...you did great!
