And more vintage finds and projects for the next sale on June 13th!

See hours and map and directions on the May 14th post!
This all wood storage bench has just a few rubbed spots where the poppy red-orange peeks through.
And what a sweet vanity! Redone in my now "famous" 5 step process, dressed with $12 each crystal "vine" hardware from Anthropologie, and the drawers are lined with ivory burlap!

What a wonderful old chest. The back says "Dull Ash". The veneer on the sides was too far gone to repair, so Glen painted them satin black.

We cleaned this bed up and upholstered the headboard in burlap. Sooo French, the style, Yes?

My savings has been depleted by love!

Here a few recent pieces I picked up to stage a vacant rental....



It's no secret I love Rustic, Primitive, Vintage and French furniture and things.
Therefore, I need to become more serious regarding regular income, as my monetary "cushion" has dwindled. This is due to repeated forays to thrift shops and barn and estate sales.
(My fascination with CraigsList is also not helping.)

I'm looking for work in Inside Sales and Customer Service so I can be an "Antique Dealer" on weekends.


If you know a business in need, please send them my resume:
