Pink Saturday

at by

Hello, everyone – Happy Pink Saturday! As always, please stop by and visit our hostess, Beverly, for a list of everyone participating.

Today I am sharing a chair that I won on eBay. It’s for my dollhouse. It’s pink, of course!

This is how it looked when I received it. Cute, but since I am going for a shabby country chic look, I have a change in mind.

I just had to ‘shabbify’ this sweet chair – there, that’s better!


Here it is with the coffee table I previously transformed. This is such fun – and much faster than painting the adult-sized furniture in my house!

Have a wonderful Saturday!

  1. It’s so pretty, and your dollhouse is just coming along beautifully. Gosh, at first I thought it was a full sized chair! I do like the white legs to match the sweet table. Very nice. I have just finished reading every post..what a pleasure.

    XOSue

  2. Happy Pink Saturday Claudia Sweetie…
    Oh my gosh I love the chair shabbified. Love the coffee table too. How much fun you must be having working on this doll house. Makes me want to play also.

    Thank you for sharing sweetie. I so love it when you do. Have a beautiful Saturday. Hope you are doing something fun.

    Country hugs sweetie and so much love, Sherry

  3. Claudia ~ Cute chair! I like your shabby way better. It is much cozier. Can’t wait to see your dollhouse when it is finished. Have a wonderful Pink Saturday!

  6. Oh wow, that is terrific! I thought it was a regular chair, at first. I would love to have one just like that for my home. Don’t I wish I could create and decorate with the speed it takes to do miniatures!
    Happy Pink Saturday!

  15. Claudia I thought it was a life size chair – – -but it’s teeny weeny! How cute is that. The dollhouse is starting to fill up. I’m excited to see what it will look like on the inside with those tiny furniture when it’s all finished!

  17. Claudia, you are gonna laugh at me, but I thought that was a full size chair instead of a doll chair and loved it for you, too! LOL! It looks adorable, and the white makes the fabric pop. Love the table, too. Your doll house is going to be adorable. Love it much and want to move in!

    Happy Pink Saturday…

    XO,

  20. What a wonderful Pink Saturday post! I just ♥ the fact that each of us shares such a variety of items – that’s one reason why this event is never boring. Always something fun, new, lovely or interesting around the corner.

    That chair is precious! Would LOVE to have a doll house to play with!

    Thanks for sharing a part of yourself today☺ Cold, gloomy day today but, as always, bright and sunny on the Pink Saturday blogs.

    ♫Wishing you sunshine and happiness this weekend!♫

  21. Love the chair; the color is fantastic! And that cottage white little table is adorable! What fun to have a doll house again! Thanks so much for sharing and have a Happy PINK Saturday!

    (I didn’t look to see if my friend Doreen is a follower, but you might enjoy seeing her miniature house and projects. She’s been at it a while and has all sorts of happenings in her house. Her blog: doreensminiatures@blogspot.com.)

  22. That chair is so wonderful for your doll house. I can tell you are having lots of fun with your doll house.

    I will toss some kisses out for you while I am in Santa Barbara.

    Have a fun weeken….

  23. Hi Claudia!

    Can I live in your doll house? I can wear the crocheted doll dress Jan at JKWart sent me for xmas!

    That sure is a cute chair…wish I had a life-sized one!

    HPS!!!!!

    love, kelee

  25. How fun to see the chair next to the doll house…at first I thought it was a big chair! And the coffee table…both just right and shabbied up perfectly! I’m enjoying your doll house and it’s restoration just as if I was there in person. I’ve had a great BlogginBirthday Party and today is the Finale…come by for some Texas Chocolate Cake.

  28. Just saw your post about your board, love the sheet music idea. I think you could sell these!!!! Also saw your post on Nella, just beautiful.

  29. Perfect!! I love the white better than the dark. Not many women back east do the shabby look though, I’m finding. Good for you, chick….
    xoxo,
    Connie

  40. Claudia, what a precious shabby pink chair. I’d love to see photos of rooms in your doll house. Please do share sometime. Thanks for stopping by to visit and leaving a comment. Always appreciate both. Happy Pink Saturday! ~ Sarah

  42. Phew My computer finally works! I got to visit a few of my favorites and going to try more! I glanced fast at the chair and thought wow that is beautiful how much is shipping?? lol Then read it all I love dollhouses. That will be a perfect addition to your home Happy Pink Saturday. Grace xoxox

  45. Nice redo. Don’t you wish all our projects were as quick.
    Thanks for coming by and enduring my knock, knock jokes today.
    Happy Weekend Blessings ;-)

  48. Ok…so when can Jalina Rose and I come and play “dolly house” with you? I thought this year as flea markets and things start up I would look for furniture and “treasures” to fill a dollhouse for Jalina Rose! What fun and I love your shabby re=do! Happy PS

  50. I love watching you decorate and redo the doll house. It is so much fun. You did an excellent job on that chair! :-) Happy Pink Saturday!

  51. Hi, Claudia,
    Such a sweet little chair for your dollhouse! Congratulations on winning it! I loved playing with dollhouses when I was a young girl (still do, for that matter!!). Happy Pink Saturday, dear friend, and enjoy your weekend! Vicki

  52. Love how you shabbied up that chair & table. Is the doll house totaly finished or are you still working on it a lot with a long way to go? I bet it is COLD up there where you live. No wonder you need wonderful projects to help pass the winter away. Happy Pink Saturday! Charlene

  53. OK i’m yelling “honey i’ve been shrunk” just so i can fit into your shabby little chair with that sweet coffee table. oh my goodness too cute.

  55. You have done a great job with your chair and table. They will make any doll house complete and one someone should enjoy.

  56. Happy Pink Saturday !!! I have enjoyed visiting your blog and viewing your lovely photos – the chair is wonderful. Please a wonderful new week.

  58. I was thrilled to see your dollhouse chair (and that you shabbified it!).
    How cool is that?!
    I too build dollhouses. I have two now. I never thought of doing one shabby!
    I am looking forward to seeing more of your shabby chic house.

  59. Oh how fun! I am going to have to find a doll house. I could decorate it the way I like and not worry about what anyone else thinks! Isn’t it funny how a little white paint makes so much difference!
    Happy Pink Weekend Claudia!

  62. Hi Claudia – now it’s Sunday, but I want to wish you a happy Pink Saturday. Your doll-house-chair is lovely and I like it’s new white legs (much better!!!)! This week I am not participating but showing a little bit of our nice small district capital Baden near Vienna. Perhaps you like the old houses there? Hugs, Traude

  63. Hi Claudia, gee that is a darling chair..and I agree, much easier to shabby up a miniature! looks like it was a great buy and now goes great with the shabbified coffee table. Is that a word..Don’t know but it is now!
    Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful week ahead…

  69. Hi Claudia – I’m doing my pink saturday visits on Monady – a little late but I can relax a bit today while visiting.

    I like your ‘shabbified’ chair ;)

    …. wishing you a Happy (belated) Pink Saturday – have a fabulous week.
    Thank you for visiting – it’s great having you pop in.

    ciao for now,
    Elena :)

  72. I love what you’ve done to your furniture! I can’t wait to see how you put it all together in your doll house. Seems like it would make you feel like a little kid again – only better! I’m late getting around to the Pink Sat. posts. Hope yours was great!

    Blessings,
    Tricia

  73. Love you pink shabbied-up chair! :) At first I thought you’d bought an adult sized chair off e-bay! THEN I reread and caught the word “dollhouse”! :)

    I LOVE what you did with that office chair! I need to do that to a couple of really ugly ones I use in my work room….I bought them at the Salvation Army years ago. I love them cuz they’re really old and have real metal bases, BUT the upholstery is very bad!

    I hope your Pink Sat was great and your week even better! L, Dana
