new soaps!!!!

i just got some new soaps from THE GREAT SOAP COMPANY!

double mint
straight up patchoulli
good karma blend
coconut truffle
and bouncing baby, which comes with an adorable little washcloth!

unscented BOUNCING BABY, for the little sensitive skins...and the super cute washcloth





the wine cabinet is DONE!!!!

this has been in the works for a while...and it's now finally out on the floor! the bottom 2 drawers were in rough shape, so i took them out and decided to turn it into a wine cabinet. it will hold around 40 bottles of wine and about 10 wine glasses. the top drawer had to stay, because it had such gorgeous detail on it! i left the mirror frame in the original wood finish, to blend with the drawer.

$650

42w x 20d x 34h







lacey vintage dresser

i LOVE how this one turned out! the soft grey with the bright pop of tangerine....and the white lace on the drawer fronts! i distressed the grey on the body of the dresser and left the drawers cleanly painted in the tangerine. i added a little lacey stencil to give it a little bit of whimsy.

$275.

32w x 20d x 44h.

the knobs are on their way.....they're clear crystal!!!





the knobs are going to be similar to these....the clear crystal will give nice sparkle to the dresser

antique empire dining table

this dining table turned out AMAZING! its so gorgeous! the table opens up to 8' long....without the leaves its 48" round, and it has 6-8" leaves to put in it. when its open to the full 8', there are two little legs that drop down on either end to help support the top. the scroll feet on the base are so pretty and even have casters (that work beautifully)! i re-finished it from its sad and dull state and it looks great!

$975.































and OOOOOOHHH, it would look so beautiful with some modern, clean lined chairs like the photo below!! using a mix of vintage/antique with new modern design gives your house such an interest and eclecticism!

antique footboard hanging rack

i found this full size headboard and footboard at an auction a while ago....i've wanted to come up with another idea on how to use them...here it is!!

i LOVE how it turned out! it would be perfect for an entry rack to hang jackets...

$150




mid-century dresser...

this dresser is GORGEOUS...not just because i drool over mid-century furniture, but because the mint green color i painted it looks so perfect with the dark, rich tones of the wood...AND because of the subtle curve of the top drawers...

$350





original hardware


the subtle curve of the top drawers is so beautiful!
































this is the tone/color of the paint...a nice soft mint!
