hand painted wardrobe
I realized I had a furniture make over from Lucketts that I never shared! How in the world did that happen? Well, I’m fixing that today. This wardrobe was by far the worst piece of furniture I purchased to sell at the market. I bought it in a furniture lot that included two dressers, this […]

stainless is the new avocado?
…I remember thinking that very thing about ten years ago when the stainless steel appliances hit the mainstream and became all the rage.
