...Fabulous New Items Listed For "Pick Your Paint"

Here are a few more items I am adding to the "Pick Your Paint" page.  The first was found on one of my shopping trips.  It was one of those days that I REALLY did not need to purchase anymore furniture but absolutely could NOT pass it up!!  I hid it in my car til after my husband went to bed so he wouldn't know(yes, I do that often).  This would be the most perfect set for a little girls room! 




I can see it painted a pretty pale pink and trimmed in a antique white or maybe a sweet lavender.  It would look classic painted all in white.  Who am I kidding, this would look perfect in so many colors!




For the nightstand only sold

For the bed frame only sold

For the set sold




This is an antique vanity that a friend so graciously gave me when she was cleaning out her house.  Her Grandmother used to use it.  She has beautiful curvy legs and fabulous carved detail.  I love these kind of pieces that can be so versatile.  This could be used as a vanity, writing desk, next to a bed.  I am picturing it a grey with new hardware.




The vanity sold


Let me know if you see anything that catches your eye.  Don't forget to let me know if you have something specific your looking for.

Thanks!

A Sweet Reproduction Vanity

This afternoon I am delivering a charming vanity.  It was an inexpensive reproduction with lots of really pretty detail.  Painting it just added more class to the already classy piece!  




I added a little fun to the inside drawer!




 It is painted in Old White ASCP.  I am not sure you can go wrong with this color.  I LOVE it more everytime I use it!!




Total cuteness in my book!




These are two custom made bronze sconces.  Very beautiful detail and I am sure it took some talented person hours to make these.  However, my client didn't like the color anymore.  So...we changed that!




This was my first time using Annie's paint on iron.  They turned out perfectly weathered!
I used Old White, Paris Grey and dark wax. 


I will be adding more pieces to the "Pick Your Paint" page later in the week so check back soon!

Enjoy your day!

Meet Alexis

I finished up another piece that is heading to the store later today.  I found her at Goodwill and couldn't go home without her. 

This is what she looked like when I first saw her.




I am not usually drawn to this style of furniture.  But something about her made me excited to try something new! 



Meet Alexis!  She is having a little trouble being seen against my walls because they are almost the same color as she is.  But we couldn't move her far because she is solid.  She is painted a putty color and trimmed in a celedon green with fun colorful knobs.


 
She is distressed in all the right places.  The finish came out just perfect!  She is solid, with dovetailed drawers and in good working condition. 



And just look at those chunky feet!

Dimensions are 51'Hx35'Wx19'D

update -SOLD

Heading to the store within the next 24 hours.  Let me know if you want her and I can bring her to you instead!

Have a great weekend everyone!!
