Meet Jennifer from The Magic Brush, a wife, mother, and artist:
I began to stalk Jennifer several months ago after I saw her work online and fell absolutely in love with her faux finishes. This girl ROCKS and she shows us all her secrets! Walls, dressers, tables, whatever...trust me, after checking out this blog, you will find yourself scanning dumpsters for junk so you can get your "magic brush" on!
Just look at some of these A.Maz.Ing. projects:
In addition to sharing her latest projects, she will teach you how to
Makeover a Chandelier in 30 Minutes
How to Create Textured Stencils
Or, How to Paint a Ceiling Medallion
And on top of all that, the girl has time to run marathons! I love the bit of inspiration she wrote on her hand:
Jennifer has an amazing prize for us today - A custom painted Antique Framed Chalkboard similar to the chalkboard frame she painted for her own kitchen. The one up for grabs today is created from an antique picture frame she rescued just for you:

I LOVE that tree in the corner! Awesome! I can't wait until we have a house to do that to. We thought we'd found one last weekend...but then we discovered about 40K worth of plumbing and foundation work it needed...so we're passing on that one. Unfortunately it's the ONLY house in town for sale...so we'll be renting until something decent opens up.
ReplyDeletecool party, am going to look around! Lezlee
ReplyDeleteJennifer,
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting. I'm late, but I'm here.

Hey Jennifer, I just blogged about me being over here! Thanks so much for the great writeup!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the Magic Brush - she has talent that I only can dream about.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite Jennifer post is when she fessed up to painting her beautiful chalkboard John Deer Green - it secretly made me happy cause doesn't it feel good to know that even with all of that talent she still has oops. Not nice of me, but just glad to see that even the pros screw it up every now and then!
Love love Jennifer! She is always so refreshing and real! I would have to say my fave post is of her daughters room. I only have boys so I just love looking at all that girly stuff! Now off to see if I have a tutorial to share....gotta have that frame!:)
ReplyDeleteJust linked up!
ReplyDeleteJust added your Tuesday party button to my side bar! I think that covers it all!:)
ReplyDeleteI like the post about Momma has a new Chandy! New to reading the blogs and am enjoying learning many things. I can't wait to try my hand at painting furniture. I am just a little scared that the results won't be what I am looking for, but ah, that is right it is paint and can be repainted. Soon I will try paint and glaze. Thank you for sharing!

I love the cabinet that she made her husband husbnad dumpster dive for. Wish I could find a cabinet like that!
ReplyDeleteI like the chandelier makeover post, because I just got a gorgeous $20 chandelier of my own to make over!
ReplyDeleteOh wow!!! I just love her!!! I am one of her biggest fans. Her creative gifts combined with her beautiful love of being a mom and wife are such a blessing and proof that you can be a great mom and wife and artist at the same time!!! Thanks for hosting her giveaway!!! I am getting ready to do a creative project with my young teen daughter and will link up with your Tuesdays party but had to leave a comment!!! Great job featuring her blog! And now I get to know you too!!! My first visit here! Awesome blog!!
ReplyDeleteI think that frame is SO beautiful! Wow. And she is giving it away. Get out of the city.
ReplyDeleteOne thing I like about her blog is that she is easy to understand and she makes everything seem simple.
Jennifer is someone that is so real and I love that! She has such talent and creativity and her blog is a favorite.
ReplyDeleteI think my favorite post is about the turquoise cabinet ~ turned out exceptionally well.
I would LOVE to win! Thanks for the opportunity.

My fav blog post is the one about her half marathon experience.

The Magic Brush is a cool site. I laughed when she said that of course she offers advertising because the kids need to go to college. Don't we all face that!
ReplyDeleteThere are so many great posts. How am I supposed to choose? But, I like the old end table you turned into a beautiful black one. I have that exact one in my basement waiting to have something done with it so this post inspired me to do something about it.
ReplyDeleteI loved her post on the tissue paper ceiling finish. So inspiring! Hope I win! Kate_murphy(at)cox(dot)net
ReplyDeleteI love your blog! Thanks so much for stopping by mine today to check out my cheap wall art! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm running right over to check the Magic Brush out right now! I know I'll be overwhelmed!!
ReplyDeleteOkay, that's not an easy thing to do! My favorite Magic Brush post????? The woman is awesome. What she can do with an itty bitty shaving cream brush (think that's what it was). That brings me to one of her latest posts, the chandelier. FANTASTIC! LOVE IT! Now PLEASE come to my house and do this for me. LOL
ReplyDeleteFantastic chalkboard. PERFECT for my studio!!!
Smiles~

Can't pick a favorite post of hers as they are always great! I have stalked her since I saw her on your site awhile back. I do love her goofed up chalkboard b/c it offers me hope that mistakes happen even with the pros! And can be fixed again!
ReplyDeleteI have to pick one post??? They are all wonderful. I am pregnant and on bedrest so I visit her site often and re-read the whole thing. I guess my favorite is her tissue paper tutorial.
ReplyDeleteI look forward to having the baby no more bedrest I can start painting again!
