You’ve Got Mail
For some weird reason I love these old tole painted pieces. Whether it’s a hamper, waste bin, a tray, or one of these little…what are these, exactly? Anyone know? Whatever it is, it looked dark and depressing in this state. I pick it up at a thrift store for a couple of bucks. I sprayed […]
The Dresser, the Rack, and the Wardrobe (and more)
I have some new finds to share with all of you. Before getting sick, I stopped into one of my favorite thrift stores. I rarely walk out of there disappointed and that day was no exception. Some of you might see the vision that I have for these, but the rest of you may need […]
Slipcovered Chair Reveal!
