I am a lover of everything old and the history behind it. When I see it I only envision what it could be. I use chalk, chalk & clay and milk paints to transform a tired, dreary antique into a “one of a kind” beauty! Like my page on Facebook to see what I am doing from day to day. Each piece has been carefully designed for todays modern home. If you are eclectic, then you will love my collection.

Forgot about Doinique
Dominique is my favorite piece and I totally forgot about her. She has 5 drawers, solid walnut by American Drew. Painted ASCP Graphite and old white with large white rose knobs. I love the graphite finish on this piece. Some of the original finish shows through on the top and it looks amazing. More fabulous pieces coming soon!!!
New in town!!
I found the most amazing pair of vintage French provincial night tables this week. For the first time in years I decided to go to an Estate tag sale. I was in heaven…….without a lot of money. I could have gone crazy buying all the amazing French provincial furniture. It’s going to be extremely hard to let go of these tables. I have never seen another one like these. I will take a few photo’s tonight and give you a sneak peak later. The same for the desk I just finished a few weeks ago. I have searched the internet trying to find a desk like the one I found and I have yet to find one. I love it when I have a truly have a one and only “One of a kind” piece of furniture. It makes it all the more wonderful for me. Since this desk is painted in Antoinette pink and old white, I will name her Marie Antoinette. Met Aussie, a three drawer mahogany 1940’s dresser with a french poem written down her front and wallpaper inside her drawers and Constance, a 1930’s solid mahogany 4 drawer dresser with french script written on the top center. I finally got them to Southern Estates Antiques last Sunday, so they are ready for you to give them a new home.
