Which one do YOU like best?
Here is a scalloped shelf or cornice that my friend Tina gave me. I just gave it a fresh coat of creamy paint.
This old folding wood chair also got a coat of paint, along with that little vintage table to the left of the pic.
I painted this chest white and then stenciled it....happy with the results. It's a pretty big size chest for sure! Will hold a lot of blankets or your favorite things. Great storage piece.
I found these little gold beauties, hit them with some paint, and thought leaving the gold rims looked prettier this way.
This was my most difficult piece to paint. Glad it's finally done. :)
Lastly, I want to show you two things I picked up for the sale that I decided I couldn't part with. They will just have to stay in my home for awhile before I set them free. This little jar is just well...SWEET. It's lettered in black and reads "Sweets" around the jar. Adorable.
I picked this desk up at an auction a few weeks ago.
Look at the detail
The drawer pulls are to die for
And look at those shabby chippy legs! I think I will use this for my computer desk in my little hallway office. Perhaps I'll sell the one I'm using now.
Well, if it's not too late, I'll hook up with Kathleen over at Faded Charm for White Wednesday. Hope you all have beautiful dreams tonight.
Blessings and Hugs,
Karen

Hi Karen,
It was so great to meet you today!! I just love your blog and will now follow you. Thanks so much for already taking time to visit mine. I am still swooning over my purchases from you today. The shutter is looking amazing against my living room wall, and the wicker basket is so pretty in my dining room. I'll be posting pics of our meeting as well. Thank you so much!

Hello Karen,
I can't stop thinking about how wonderful your white tent event was. It was so special to meet you, and now I've been perusing your blog. I can't get over how incredible your treasures are - I especially loved those glitter ornaments you made at Christmas time. You have such the talent! And I must tell you how many comments I've received on my blog about that shutter I got from you. Everyone LOVES it! I will try to do it justice in my home, it is truly beautiful. And I love walking through my dining room and seeing that cute wicker basket I got from you holding my linens.
I MUST return to your store sooner than later! And it would be great if you and Sandi could make the trip up to Todd Farm Flea Market some day this spring.
Take care (and I look forward to seeing your post of the event - ooh la la!),
Susan
