If you yearn to create unapologetic art that makes you smile and brings joy to your home, I’ve got just the thing!


I created a special tutorial series to help you embrace your maximalist vibe. 


Fill out the form below and follow along as I create a new piece from scratch and walk through all the creative and technical steps you need to know when doing a maximalist furniture makeover:

Do you dream of making over your space and painting your own furniture but ...

  • You're not sure where to start
  • You don’t know what products to use
  • You can’t set aside the space or time
  • You worry about what people will think
  • You have little to no experience with DIY projects

I was exactly where you are 15 years ago.

Hi, I'm Tanglewood Sue, your fearless DIY guide!


When I started my DIY journey, I had one critical thing that you don't (yet)...


A total disregard for the consequences of my artistic actions and the judgements of others.


I bulldozed my way through projects, learning through trial and error, and forged my unique signature into everything I did - even when I did it wrong.


I still get it wrong by the way, only now I delight/anger way more strangers on the internet with my choices.


But I also learned incredibly useful techniques and found a mostly reliable and repeatable artistic process.


Now, I want to help make this INCREDIBLE, EXCITING transition into artistic expression so much easier for you kiddos.


Congrats! You’ve just found your tribe.

 Start and Finish Your First Furniture Makeover


Picture your home, but make it UNIQUELY yours; your colors, your style, your energy. What would it feel like to paint your doorframes, refurbish your nightstand, or reinvent your wardrobe instead of spending money on a new one?


Whatever project you have in mind, I want to not only help you get started but also finish the damn thing!


For those of you eager to get started, I made a special series that walks you through all the steps I take when embarking on a maximalist furniture makeover:

  1. Scoping out your project
  2. Selecting a piece and choosing a workspace
  3. Figure out what technique will create the look you want
  4. Choosing your colors/paints/materials
  5. Painting the damn thing
  6. Finishing touches

I know you’ll find my videos entertaining but this series is also packed with valuable lessons learned through years of trial and error from approaching everything with a ‘what if’ attitude.
