A Work in Progress

My new friend...I love her.  I am planning on taking the very worn, moth eaten fabric off of her and replacing it.  I have a few different ideas for the fabric...possibly a tapestry, burlap w/ stenciled images, or a muslin or linen w/ printed images...decisions decisions.

Architectural Elements

Sweet little green house that we designed from old windows, spindles, a piece of dentil moulding, and a corbel.
So happy it found a good home!

One of my favorite pieces...Frenchy green dresser

Bought this piece at auction with a few minor surface flaws.  It definitely needed to be re-finished and yes I am one of those that has no problem painting vintage furniture.  I did not want to cover the original floral motif in the center so I decided to leave some of the natural wood exposed to balance the rest of it out.
