I was looking through the links from last week and I had the urge to look for French chairs and Empire dressers on craigslist.  I surfed around and found a pretty Empire dresser for a good price about an hour away.  I was asking my husband about the distance for pickup and he leaned into me and said, “Let’s just focus on one thing at a time.”  I’m feeling the itch to paint some furniture, and I’ll get to for some of my tutorials, but I do need to work through those before I can work on getting pieces ready for the Lucketts Antique Market. Anyway, here are some pieces that caught my eye from last week… I think this table by Tiffany of The Crafty Woman is so pretty and clever.  It’s actually pieces of wood cut in a herringbone pattern and stained.  Tedious work, but an awesome result.

Good evening, everyone!  It’s time for another round up of some of the best furniture on the blogs.   I hope you enjoy my favorites from last week and the links for this week. Diane from In My Own Style created this home center with an old card catalog, a shelf, some bun feet and a homemade chalk paint recipe.  I think it looks brilliant and super functional.  I love the hardware! Angie from Knick of Time shows clever ways to use parts from broken chairs.  This one was my favorite… Kim from Savvy Southern Style is my kind of girl…she’ll paint a piece and paint it again and have no hesitation painting it again.  The result is this mixed-medium table that harmoniously displays ASCP, MMSMP and some gilding wax.  I think the result is beautiful. Here are the rules for our furniture get-together… 1.) Your post has to be about furniture.

Hello again all of my furniture-loving friends.  It’s been nice to get back into the swing of things after the hub-bub of the holidays.  It seems like an eternity since I painted my last piece of furniture and I’m getting the itch.  I did start on a small table yesterday, but it’s more of an experiment than a piece I’m really working on.  I do have some pieces to paint around my house and I’ll probably start on some of those in the next week or two.  Until then, I’m living through your furniture makeovers.  (Thanks for that!)  Here were a few of my favorites from last week… This high chair by Allison of The Golden Sycamore made me smile.  It’s just pretty, sweet and slightly whimsical with its dipped legs.  I love everything about it.
