Guest Bedroom Progress…

I spent some time in the guest room today, getting the space cleaned up, hanging up the lights and curtain rods, moving the furniture and hanging a few things on the wall. Here’s how it’s coming along… I’m going to make a cover for the bolster pillow, but just wrapped it in fabric for the […]
Furniture Fanatic

If you’ve spent any amount of time on my blog, you know I love furniture. I’m pretty sure it started with the $10 antique dresser I bought at a yard sale about 12 years ago. I shoved it in the backseat of my car, carried it up to our balcony apartment and refinished it. I […]
Last Week's Finds

When I get home from shopping, I like to open all of the bags and boxes and spread everything out on the dining room table. I think it has to do with feeling a sense of accomplishment. This is what I did today. It’s harder to feel that when it’s out of sight. I think […]

Unfortunately, a photo shoot is much more involved than just snapping a few pictures. I had to finish some details in the […]

As I’ve been posting this series about being a vendor at antique shows, I’ve been asked a few questions. Some of them involved pricing and negotiating, so I thought I would chat on those topics. I was a shopper at these events long before I was a vendor and that helped me with the decisions […]
photo shoot, a fever & finds

We had less than half of the trim completed in the family room and I had a photo shoot coming up, so today, Jeff and I were determined to finish it. Part of it was the deadline, but another part of it was putting ourselves out of our miserly. Having a half-finished DIY project hanging […]
