Introductions
Hello! I hope you all had a great weekend, and are fresh and ready for a new week! My husband is actually off work today, so we are headed to Asheville for a play day in the mountains. I am excited about a day away to shop, explore, and eat somewhere new and tasty. I hope to do some furniture buying as well......shhhh don't tell the hubs!
While we are talking about furniture, I finished this little beauty last week. This was my last custom job for a while, and I know I said that before but my client "K" talked to me about this piece way before the cut off deadline, and so I squeezed her in when she was ready.
This piece may look a little familiar to you all since she was created after a serious falling in love with "jewel", and I dare say that you will see the resemblance! {wink!} I personally believe that you can never go wrong with this color, and was happy to create some turquoise goodness again.

Have a great day today peeps!

Today I would like to introduce you to my latest! This piece is a really cool little sewing cabinet. So cool, that I used it in not one... but two photo shoots in its "un-painted" state! I have to admit I was a teensy bit nervous about this transformation, and I really wanted to nail it....get it right....hit a home run....you get the picture. You may wonder why this piece is different since I should feel that same pressure with my own pieces.... and I do....but they don't have the sentiment involved.
You see, my client brought this to me from Charlotte, and it is a piece that belonged to her grandmother ...so it is extra special. Miss A loves the piece for its sentimental value, but it did not fit her aesthetic or the memory of her grandmother's spunky personality! Miss A knew exactly what she wanted, and upon perusing my paint samples and details....picked out her color and the paper for the drawer fronts easy peasy. The knobs were a little bit trickier, but she found these at Anthropologie and then shipped them to me. They are perfection, and really finish the piece off nicely.
I am super excited about how this little one turned out, and can't wait to present it to Miss A on Friday!
Good times!....and speaking of good times....I am working on a super fun piece that will hopefully be in the etsy shop by the end of the week.....woot!
Enjoy the day today!
