I’ve been slowly chipping away at our master bedroom. I’ve settled on a room of neutrals – creams, golds, with bits of blue. I really love how soothing it is and hope that I stick with my plan before changing course. When the seasons change, so does my decor strategy. Does anybody else do this?
Over the weekend I finished a project that has been on the to-do list for a while.
We have a mini-chandelier in the master bedroom. It used to be bronze and I painted it white. White was OK for a while, but it was too cold. Yesterday I gave it the gold Rub ‘n Buff treatment.
I usually apply Rubb ‘n Buff with my fingers, but the little crevices needed something more. So I used an art paintbrush to get into those spots.
The gold gave the room a little more warmth which was exactly what I was hoping for.
That’s what I did yesterday. What about you?
Looks great Rene!
Beautiful! Definitely warms it up like you wanted!
Yesterday, I went through a few boxes of old momentos- stuff my mom saved from school, old letters, cards and diaries, etc. It's quite entertaining but I'm looking forward to trashing most of it. 🙂
it looks GORGEOUS! so much more glamorous!
Love the gold accents! Did you stencil your drapes?
Hi Katie. I purchased them this way. Here is the post "How to add pinch pleats to store bought curtains". http://cottageandvine.blogspot.com/2012/10/how-to-add-pinch-pleats-to-store-bought.html

Gorgeous! Makes me want to break out the rub n' buff for a chandy I have in the basement right now…may use the patina color! Take care, Caroline
Perfect amount of warmth and a great idea Rene!
What a difference! I love the way it looks. You're right- it adds that special warmth. Great job! 🙂
The Rub-n-Buff really warms it up and shows off the shape so well. Such a great little product!
The chandelier is beautiful with it's warmth and bling!! Don't you just love the Rub 'n Buff?
Have a great week!

So pretty! I have a white chandelier, also, I think this may be the idea I've been looking for. This is the first I've heard of Rub n Buff, though. Is the color just called gold? Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful home and ideas!
