latest furniture haul
First of all, thank you so much for the amazing feedback on our latest video project! Just like the “yellow dress and the dresser” video, it literally popped in my head and then happened so organically. I am very much someone who does their best work out of inspiration, not on demand! I imagine most […]
prove yourself wrong
I have some things to share tonight, but I’m going to do something I don’t usually (or ever) do. I’m going to ask you to watch this video first and then read the post. The reason is that I’m going to talk about the video and I don’t want you to read all about it […]
second landscape dresser reveal
Tha second hand-painted landscape dresser is finished! And, would you believe that it’s sold already! Someone came to pick it up Saturday morning. Sometimes I like to enjoy my pieces for a while, but I was really glad this one was scooped up right away. The buyer loved it when it was just a chalked […]
second landscape dresser | part three

That’s just the truth. Even though I felt inspired to do more landscape painting, I was really intimidated […]
second landscape dresser | part one
Do you remember our first landscape dresser? In case you don’t (or perhaps you missed it or you’re just joining us), here is a refresher… It was a collaboration between Kriste and I. After working on it, along with the murals and other hand painted landscape elements we used in our booth for the Lucketts […]
antique haul | 6.27.16
Last week, I acquired a few fun things. One of my “pickers” brought me a load of ironstone (plus I brought in some pieces from my house) and I found some goodies at a local antique shop. Here’s a video showing everything… This is the small blue & white pitcher I mentioned in the video… […]
