Shabby White Bench Makeover Story!

Before~ 

This darling bench is so sweet and primitive but was left with a sad spotty paint job.

After~

With a fresh coat of sparkling new semi gloss white paint it is a spring time must have ready to be displayed inside or out!

The perfect size to move around and make seasonal displays with once again so tempting to keep, however this cute little shabby bench will be headed to Main Street flea market today to replace a shabby sewing table I sold!

Treasure Hunting Tuesday!

Wow! I was out and about today and it was literally coming up roses! Scored some Romantic Homes magazines for .50 cents along with rose plates, faux cake and much more!

I found some super deals I will share with you, my favorite being a baby picture from  1912 of Baby Roy.

I adore this hand painted plate with roses and the tiny rose salt and pepper shakers~

  Darling white vintage iron chair with a rose print fabric I have two of these and I need to find a permanent home for them.... I am stalling taking these down to my flea market booths, they are just so pretty!

I found this sweet hand made pillow at Fall Creek Farm. The Roses on the side are handmade with ribbon, so sweet!

Check back for more treasures and home makeovers!

~Shabby Green Cabinet Makeover!~

This is part of the before picture, originally this cabinet was a light wood with ugly black imprints from the original store display.

Before picture with white primer.

This is the after picture after two coats of shabby green paint I then sanded the edges and finished it off with a dark wood stain to give it an aged look and to protect the finish! Delightful!

This is the darling after picture! Normally, I would have shabbied it white, but I am feeling the springy green. This could be decorated a million ways, dressed up or down, I just love the Its a wonderful life sign, got it for a mere .25 cents at a tag sale this weekend. 

This darling shabby table will be for sale for $32.50 in Cadwell's Flea Market in downtown Branson.

Hope you enjoyed this fun little makeover, stay tuned for my next project!

Flea Market Treasures

Darling Shabby Hoosier Cabinet

I love this sweet Shabby Hoosier Cabinet, it is probably my biggest splurge and I still got it $100 less than the asking price. It has its original flour sifter, enamel top  and bread rack. So sweet in my kitchen.

This cabinet is for sale~ Darling old hoosier with chopping block and wonderful deep drawers and stenciled cabinet windows!

My pretty cabinet with lots of delicate rose dishes. The lamp I found this weekend and the birdcage was a great deal from a friend which I then painted white! 

 

Sweet little Shabby Birdhouse found at the Fall Creek Farm Flea Market! I cannot tell you how much fun I have shopping for pretty decorative items! Please stay tuned I am painting my kitchen cabinets white!

Darling Vintage mirrors!

2 sweet vintage wedding veils~

Just some of the darling found treasures for the week~ I will bring them to the booth on Friday!

Oh my it has been a wonderful day! I volunteered at my son's school in the morning and totally made over my little booth in the afternoon! I marked a ton of stuff down so I can shop for new goodies! I have to support the habit. I cannot tell you the luck I have had in thrifting... some truly wonderful finds, I will share them soon! I am becoming so taken with vintage wedding apparel~A romantic at heart!

Pink laundry room!

Above is my darling new laundry room! Below is the lackluster before picture.

My new Laundry motivation! Keeping it looking pretty!

I am so so so excited about my new Pretty in Pink Laundry room! I spend so much time doing laundry I might as well enjoy it! Well, this is motivating me to stay on top of the big bad laundry pile! I painted the walls a soft pink called Kanuck I used this vintage shelf to cover the hot water heater. My once messy sock basket is concealed in a darling rose embellished hat box. Of course it would not be shabby without some pretty crushed roses and a dangling planter chandelier! What fun this was... next up my kitchen! Well, I hope you enjoy this little eye candy treat!

Huge praise for such a beautiful day! The sun is shining the birds are singing and my toddler is about to be sleeping! Well, I stocked my flea market booths today and now it is time for a little play with paint! Of course I am thinking pink! Who would guess? Anyway, I have taken before pictures of my very plain and boring laundry room... stay tuned for some after pics! Ta Ta for now!
