the bergere chairs & design ramblings
Well, the bergere chairs are finally done! They were some of my earlier upholstery subjects. I was still at the stage when I would take apart a chair and then I would wonder what in the world I was thinking and how I was going to get it all back together. At the time, these […]
furniture feature friday | favorites & link party
Well, it looks like everyone is in the full furniture refinishing swing of things with warmer weather and sunnier skies. I know it has helped a lot with my motivation in my own home and yard and as I’ve been getting ready for my biggest event of the year. I’ve been up to my elbows […]

a sea of furniture & 500+ pieces of ironstone
Some of you have noticed and commented that I have been sharing a lot of furniture pieces that I’m going to be taking to Lucketts and you’re right.
