This is real and so exciting to me, my booth at Doc Holiday’s Emporium is doing so well. I started down stairs in a tiny little booth, moved up stairs in a bigger booth and then back down stairs in a big booth. It was doing well in all in all the spaces but the move back down stairs seems to be just right. We are seeing record sales and my back stash of completed projects is gone. So I...

I’ve blogged about the chairs turned to benches. I’ve blogged about the two beautiful accent chairs that will set at the end of the table. What about the table? Well it’s done and last night we all sat around it at their new home and had our first meal. It turned out amazing. From the 90’s style to shabby chic and updated I couldn’t have ask for it to turn out any better!! The table was beautiful before I started...

I’m not you really can do this project and not destroy you fabric. I bought this chair at an auction and it was a bit tattered. It had a few worn spots on the fabric but it was so pretty. The dark wood was just...

I often troll the online garage sales for cheap items to redo. Sometimes I’m lucky and sometimes not so much. I’ve been trying to find a telephone table like from the 50″s. They are the cutest things and have so much potential to be recycled into something more usable today. On our way back from Waco and weekend travels I came across just such telephone table for next to nothing. The lady had already refurbished it by painting it teal...

My trip to Waco was successful. I enjoyed every minute of it and I learned a lot. Being quiet and hearing what I needed to hear has lightened my heart. I feel a renewed sense of purpose this morning!! I got to Waco later than I thought Traffic was bad but I tried not to let it get to me. I arrived at the Silo’s and things were hoping. I wanted to run from place to place so I didn’t...

I am a creative with a vintage soul and a happy heart. Just as I set out with a new purpose to restore my life 5 years ago, I try to find the beauty in beaten up and forgotten pieces for the home.
