this weekend's theme

~ galvanized finishes ~

Casual, industrial, rustic, and charming. Galvanized finishes add a little extra casual sparkle to any interior.


Isn't this chest of drawers a precious find? It makes such a room statement on this wall.

By Shabby Charm.




No one does galvanized quite like Becky. Her home is gorgeous anyway however her galvanized touches simply make it shine! 



And if you haven't been by Dreamy Whites yet, you best get running. Maria's photography is incredible,  capturing her charming home accents, such as this galvanized pitcher. Isn't it wonderful?


Look closely on this one. Top = galvanized switchplate. Lower handles - pipe fittings. So clever!

By Sew Many Ways

And then of course there's Jo's galvanized topped kitchen island. The metal touch is a soft and subtle way to bring in a little industrial flair.






As for me? I seem to have a thing for galvanized TUBS.


And a newly empty chicken coop with no intended purpose. YET.

Wish for more inspiration?

  1. Ha being sleep deprived pays of sometimes. I am the first galvanized linky :-)
    I could be mistaken but I don't think you ever did a palette wood linky, now did you? I added that to my list of future SNS possibilities.
    Ok I am really going to try and catch some sleep now. CU in the morning and have a wonderful weekend.

  16. This isn't related to this post; however, this video came up on my aol homepage on how to fix a stuck drawer & I thought of you. It has that Eric Stromer guy in it that use to be on Trading Spaces. He suggests wax or nylon tape (never heard of it). Here is the link.

    So sorry to see your FB status update on your kitty. Thinking you're doing the right thing getting a 2nd opinion.

    This was my first link party, it was so much fun.
    I loved seeing all of that silvery gray. I participated in your poll. All of the new categories look very interesting. I wonder which ones will make the cut... Thank-you!
