the last auction i went to was a great success!! found lots of cool pieces. i was really excited to get started on them, i sort of had an idea of what i'd do to each of them. the first one i started was a smaller empire scroll chest. it was pretty rough...the veneer was chipping and it was DIRTY! i've had these fantastic orange/cream/gold knobs and have been waiting to use them on the right piece...this was it! the look amazing with the pale grey paint....
its 35w x 20d x 29h. $200

| here it is 'before'......beautiful lines... |
 |
| after!! i love how it turned out! the pale grey was perfect! |
 |
| and the very cool knobs!!! |
and i was also able to finish one of the french deco chairs!!! i decided to do the rocker first. i went online to search for some fabric that was in the deco style, but with a modern twist to it. i found this amazing cream/teal/black fabric. it looks 1930's but with a modern aire to it. gorgeous on the chair!!
$140
