Multitalented Painter Painter and avid do-it-yourselfer Kristen Fountain Davis turned her 850-square-foot Atlanta condo into a showcase for her painting skills and her ability to turn trash into treasure.



Little Living Room, chic Kristen managed to present her modest 10-by-12-foot living room a high-energy, sophisticated look by sticking together with flea markets for staple pieces, then upgrading them with color. The walls have been painted a dark blue tone from Benjamin Moore known as Black Horizon. "I really like using dark colors to make backdrops for my pieces," she says. "The canary yellow bamboo chair and the set of turquoise end tables really pop against the blue. Additionally, the navy blue leaves my abstract art seem even better!"



Put the Scheme When deciding on a color scheme for the condo's living space the hardwood flooring store . Kristen chosen to pull the same hues of orange and yellow from an original abstract painting. For contrast, she set it all against navy blue walls, noting: "Everything looks so crisp contrary to the navy, especially my white couch. Even though it only cost $25, it looks like a million bucks up against the blue"



Experimental Art Along with painting furniture, walls and canvases, Kristen often experiments with unique materials and applications to make one-of-a-kind works of art. "The 20-by-20-inch framed bit along the sofa wall is really a play on texture," she states. "I blended a very simple piece of white burlap with a small remnant from a busted piece of art. By adding 4-inch thick matte, it instantly turned disparate materials to a sharp, abstract statement."



Turquoise End Tables Kristen scored a set of mid-century contemporary end tables out of a garage sale for $10, sanded them down, and painted them a high-gloss colour from Sherwin-Williams known as Aquarium. The hardware has been taken from another piece and spray-painted gold. "Gold is my favorite accent colour for turquoise; it appears really rich and glamorous," the builder states. For a hint of texture, Kristen coated the open floor part that's just below the drawer with grasscloth wallpaper.



Cool Canary Chair Kristen's usage of canary yellow spray paint gave a brand-new life to a 50 bamboo lounge chair she purchased in a sidewalk sale. To make the piece extra comfortable, she invested $100 in new upholstery made from gray and white wrought cloth.



Clear Coffee Table Space was limited in Kristen's living room. To provide the illusion that the place was slightly bigger, she opted for a clear acrylic coffee table. "You can see right through it almost like it is not there," she states. "If I'd have gone with a solid dining table, it might have taken up a fantastic number of visual space."



Media Center In order to make a functional media center on a budget, Kristen customized two IKEA bookcases with crown molding and charcoal grey paint, then sandwiched a piece of plywood between them as a TV stand. The open storage notion also enables her to showcase her books, vintage magazines and favored objects.



Hand-Painted Pattern Even though the wall supporting Kristen's media centre looks like wallpaper, it is really a custom, hand-painted layout. "When coming up with ideas for new designs, I really like to experiment in my own walls," she says. "This black and white trellis pattern was motivated by an area rug that I fell in love with. It was very fun to make and I'm hoping one of my customers will request me to personalize it for their houses." Unable to choose the ideal color of dark grey, Kristen blended her own to create the ideal hue. "If you have different colours in your home, consider mixing them together to get a one-of-a-kind, customized hue," she states. "It's easy to do and it's free."



Faux Built-In Bookcase To get a built-in appearance, Kristen attached crown molding to the top of readymade bookcases. "Something important to remember if you are doing this job yourself is to make sure and fill the space between each piece of trimming wood filler before painting," she says. "It will give you a far more finished look in the end."



Hidden Components In order to keep wires and components hidden from view, Kristen produced a customized skirt out of burlap.



Brilliant Burlap She used hot glue to include grosgrain ribbon, creating a Greek key-like pattern.



Dining Nook Since Kristen likes to watch TV during dinner, then it was important she squeeze a dining space to the living space. "I only had about four feet of width to slip in dining furniture," she explains. "Finding a desk to fit the room perfectly was hopeless. By purchasing two separate flea market tables one with the ideal top and another with the ideal foundation -- it enabled me to combine the two and create something custom." To create a uniform look, Kristin spray-painted the newly constructed pieces with a high gloss white.



Eye-Catching Trim To get a Hollywood Regency signature, Kristen painted the inset detail of her contractor-grade front door shameful, noting, "It provides a really nice picture punch to an otherwise dull door"



Baroque Mirror Turned Chalkboard Kristen gave new function to some baroque mirror she picked up from a flea market. She removed the framework and spray-painted it turquoise, then replaced the mirror with a sheet of wood painted with chalkboard paint.



Prettified Curtain Panels When dressing the chimney, Kristen needed something light, natural and airy. She customized ready-made, white linen drapery panels with Greek primary trim she attached with hot glue.



Discount Dining Chairs The dark blue background of Kristen's living room partitions allowed her to utilize a wide array of bold colors as accents. Eager to operate orange to the mix, she used a Laurie Smith graphic print fabric in pumpkin and white to re-cover a set of modern dining seats. Kristen found the seats for $10 at an antique shop and bought the cloth on clearance. "The whole bolt was less than $10; however, only 1 yard was sufficient to cover both seats," she states. "My friends almost do not believe me when I tell them the chairs cost less than $15."



Graphic Pair A abstract diptych in black and white canvas adds a dose of graphic layout into Kristen's otherwise muted and serene bedroom.



Bold Little Lamps Two of Kristen's favorite colors to use on canvas and for decorative wall applications are blue and orange. To put both to use in her bedroom, then she picked up a set of ginger jar lamps from a thrift store for $6, and then updated them with orange spray paint noting: "I love the comparison. It's daring but still really soothing."



Budget Headboard Determined to keep her bedroom decorating budget under $500, Kristen decided to create her own headboard from scratch. "I had a piece of plywood cut to size in the home improvement store, then I used my very own jigsaw to create the scalloping. Since batting and foam can be extremely expensive, I used a foam egg crate mattress pad to find the same effect. Rather than fabric, I utilized a sand-colored twin bed sheet," she clarifies. "People find it difficult to think my headboard price less than $100."



Custom Bed Skirt Kristen produced a custom bed skirt based on a basic white version she bought from IKEA, then customized it with orange cotton duck fabric. She states, "After placing my mattress onto risers, it had been too high for regular bed skirts to fit properly. Updating the bed skirt was easy. All I did was cut down fabric to a four-inch band, then attach it to the bottom of the bed skirt with hot glue"
