the unpainted desk & hemp chair
Despite what some may think, I don’t paint everything. Most of the furniture pieces I buy are in need of some help. They’re tired, worn, spotted with water rings, sporting chipped & bubbled veneer and have seen better days. Because of that, I don’t feel the slightest hesitation about painting them. Some pieces, though, are just […]
Typewriter Desk Makeover
…and there’s still more! Furniture makeover reveals, that is. I have to tell you that I have really enjoyed the frenzy of painting and upholstery as I was getting ready for Lucketts. With everything else I was working on, I didn’t have much time for it. Truth be told, I was probably a little burnt […]

Lucketts Recap 2014 Day 1 (Part 1)
Well, another Lucketts Spring Market has come and gone. I’ve made it clear to everyone that I will be chilling, watching a lot of Netflix and catching up on some things this week. I will do work if and when I want to! A sort of stay-cation. I have a lot to share about the […]
What's left at Lucketts…
Day one at Lucketts was a crazy blur! We have tons of pictures and I’ll tell you all about it, but I am totally whipped tonight, so I’ll keep this short and sweet. I had plenty of time this year to get the booth set up exactly as I wanted. When the gates were opened, […]
