4. It all looks so wonderful ~ hope you have a chance to get a little breather. 🙂

5. These are all simply gorgeous! I can only dream about being half as awesome as you with my painting! I hope you sell them all!

6. WOWZERS! It all looks so amazing. I especially LOVE the twin bed with matching piece with the Gold Leaf Detail. And the 1st pic of the French Buffet? Oh, you are going to be so succesful! See, you must come from really good stock to get all that gorgeous work done with your "team".

   The last photo looks like me! Complete with the black paint on my arm. I painted a piano black today and didn't notice the paint until I was driving kids to church youth activities!

   Your "beauty" pics will be when the show is going on. Thanks for sharing all the fun. -K

7. Marian that's what I look like too nearly every day (but only for about 2 hours while the little ones are at school). All your hard work will definitely pay off.

8. I love the Graphite one!!

9. Everything looks fantastic! Wish I lived nearby, so I could see it all up close.

10. Nothing short of amazing as usual. Im dying to see a pic of the pavilion and your spaces with all your treasures.

11. Every piece is beautiful. You are going to knock their socks off at Lucketts.

12. Man, you are really trying to torture us people who live too far away to come, ay? Haha. But seriously, everything looks so beautiful! Your booth will be sold out in minutes !!!

13. I love the Graphite one too!

14. OH I love them all. If you run out of room to store all the pretty things you are getting done there is always room at my house. 🙂

15. Dear Miss Mustard Seed,
    Just in case you didn't know it… You ARE amazing! You GO Girl! Don't worry about all of us seeing pretty pictures. Let all of us just send you and your team kudos! I'm positive you'll be quite successful!
    Best Wishes!

16. You have made some amazing finds, and they have all turned out beautifully! I can't decide which one I like best, but that french bed is awfully gorgeous!

17. Amazing as always. What floors me is how clean and dust-free your work space always looks…my areas always seem to get so dirty/dusty!! Have a great productive week!

    p.s. I purchased a paint sprayer that you so kindly recommended to me. First attempt…not too bad! But of course I somehow managed to paint my new paint sprayer, the air hose AND my garden hose when I was ready to give it a first rinse when done. haha…guess it has to get broken in sooner or later!

18. Looks like an amazingly successful day! I'm feeling a bit embarrassed that I didn't finish my teeny tiny antique table today! lol

19. It was enough just to see what you have been working on this week. Thank you.

20. You have been a busy lady! You're very talented though and I love all these pieces, especially the blue and white buffet!

21. Marian….
    Before you load it all up…you need to "sign" your pieces! You are so well known and everyone loves your talented approach to finding character in each piece! Can you use your new stamp and at least stamp your logo on the back of each piece…I think it's high time! 🙂

    Good Luck this weekend…as I said before..for me…598 miles would get me there….just not this weekend…wish it were after school got out for the summer! Maybe I'll take a summer drive up that way!

    Again, Blessings for a most successful weekend!

22. Oh…BTW….what did Mom and Dad think of the chalk paint? Did they like it? 🙂

23. Look at you so hard at work!! Your painted pieces are really pretty!! I agree with the above poster that you need to sign your pieces.

24. Good idea about signing your pieces, how exciting. They are beautiful. Love the gold leaf detail. Wish I could be there at Lucketts and meet you.

25. Wow you've really done some incredible work! I'm sure it will pay off for you. Hope you get the chance to R&R; afterwards though.

26. Looks like you're about all set! 🙂

27. It's official. You ARE wonder woman! My favorite piece is the dresser in Paris gray with glass knobs. Good luck this weekend. I have no doubt that all your hard work will pay off. You deserve a break!

28. those are incredible beautiful pieces!

29. Hello Marian,
    I stopped by your space on my way to NY last Sat. Everything looked just as lovely as on your blog. Good luck with this weekend. Maybe a few showers on Friday, but Sat and Sun will be sunny and in the 80's!!

    I hope you come home to an empty and lonely looking workspace on Sunday evening.(aka.. everything sells)

    your friend,
    Janet xox

30. Everything looks fabulous!! Love the grey painted dresser…gorgeous!!

31. They turned out gorgeous!!!!

32. You got your mustard and your seeds flying all over!!;) Good luck this weekend. I predict a sell out!

33. They're all beautiful and you are wonder women. Can't wait to see all the pictures from the Lucketts Antique Market.Have a great show!!!

34. Gorgeous pieces! Would love for you to do a post about pricing, and all the knobs at Abodent are sold here at Anthropologie, but they don't list them on-line – in the stores they have tons! Good luck, I'm sure you'll come home empty handed! Wish I lived closer! xo

35. This is so exciting!!! I LOVE it ALL!

36. All of the pieces look amazing, but they always do. Keep it coming!! You are inspiring me. I had mentioned before that I am going to use the chalk paint and I am on track to do that this week. That is part of a complete overhaul I am doing on my back porch, inspired by you of course. Please look at the linen and feedsack daybed linens I just finished. The pillows remind me of the pillow on your header. http://cedarhillranch.blogspot.com/2011/05/dreamy-daybed-redo-with-feedsacks-and.html
    Will send a link when I do the paint!!

37. pure awesome-ness … you're like the energizer bunny … 🙂

45. So, so gorgeous. Your work is beautiful!

46. Who needs pretty staging? We're all just delighted to see your mustardizing, however it's presented. Those beds are SPECTACULAR!!! A previous poster said she'd like to see a post about how you price your treasures for |Luckett's…I second that! I won't wish you good luck at all because I know you'll be sold out before the end of the weekend!!

47. I love each one! I'm sure we'd all love a gold leaf tutorial someday! 🙂 When you have time to breathe that is… XOXO

48. Dressers, and beds, and tables, oh my! (trying to channel my inner Dorothy 🙂 Beautiful work as always, thank you so much for sharing it and continuing to be an inspiration. I agree with those who said you should sign your work, you are an artist!

49. Marian, you and your work never fail to amaze me! I agree with Martha, you should find a way to sign your makeovers.

    Fantastic work!
