My sister Cathy and I continue to be blessed in so many ways through our work here at Shizzle Design. The best part of what we do are the friends we meet and the fun we have along the way.
We want everyone to feel at home while they’re here while giving them the confidence and knowledge they’ll need to create beautiful finishes on just about anything once they get back home.
The awesome people we’ve met at our last few workshops and the fabulous pieces they created are no exception. We had a blast, as we always do, and were blown away watching the “before’s” transform into one-of-a-kind pieces of art. Enjoy as you scroll through these awesome Shizzle Style makeovers! Sit back. Relax. This post is LOADED with tons of inspirational pictures from our last workshops.

This looks more like Dollar Bill than Beach Glass, but I think she actually used Beach Glass on this table.
