Five Star Frou-Frou #47...

Paint an old dresser with a mirror black and add glass knobs for an old Hollywood look and feel in our master bedroom! @GrandmasHousDIY 
 
Hi everyone and welcome to Five Star Frou-Frou, where we share all sorts of froth and prettiness. I hope you'll enjoy this weeks features!
 
This week I've chosen a few glam projects. I fancy a bit of glamour in my life and these all really appeal to my sense of drama and style!
 
First off, is Tarah's fabulous dresser makeover. How refreshing to see something glossy and black and fabulous. I do love the French Provincial look, but something about this striking piece really caught my eye. Thanks Tarah!

Next I chose Tammy's Vintage Desk Accessories.
 
Again, the stark palette, is soothing and yet stylish at the same time. 
 
Finally, Dawn used a favourite standby of mine, a bit o' metallic gold, to glam up an old umbrella stand. Love it!

In my imagination, this linkup is like a weekly gathering of friends, swishing around in stylish dresses and frou-frou. We all love to entertain graciously, live elegantly, dress beautifully, and gift generously, no matter our budget.

Like any regular gathering, we like to make sure we acknowledge newcomers, say hi to old friends, and share our most engaging news. Please do this...it's lovely for us all to have a new friend stop by.
 
Some gentle rules...

1. Please follow A Tray of Bliss. I am here, on Facebook and Pinterest (as Mimi's Tray of Bliss). I now have a closed group on Facebook with the same name, and we share lovely ways of living elegantly, so send a request to join and you're in!

2. Please visit new friends, revisit old ones, and leave comments to show your appreciation of their work. We all love that. Everyone works hard on their projects and writing, and if this is a party, then you need to mingle!

3. I'd also love it if you'd link back to A Tray of Bliss somewhere on your page. That helps the linkup to grow. The more beautiful bloggers we have linking, the more comments and visits for all of us. Thankyou!

The collection has closed. Let other people know about it through twitter.
