Vintage Kids Desk Redo
Over the summer we found an old kids desk for $2 at a garage sale. Jeremy might have thought I was crazy, but I knew this baby had potential.
Before:
I sanded her down, and painted a few coats of this lovely grey. Then roughed it up with some distressing. The finishing touch was the adorable new yellow knobs! Here is how she turned out:
Adorable, no?
I’m pretty proud of this little baby and hope that someone else loves it and wants to give it a new home too! 🙂
Simple Table Setting For Two
We have been keeping busy around here. Mostly working on wedding projects, and although I would love to show you some of them, I am making myself wait until after the big day. So, here is a tid bit of the fun around here, a table setting just for the two of us. Jeremy even helped me think of the fun center piece! 🙂
What do you think? Simple, fun, and totally us. lol. Hope you are all having a nice early spring!

Adorable Little Chair
Behold the new addition to the shop (or soon to be):
Isn’t he cute?? I’m not sure if I will remodel this little guy or sell as is. Any suggestions? I was thinking black paint and new cushion. But then again, I love the wood and the teal vinyl. Hmmm… Let me know if you have any interest in this oh-so-cute MCM chair (refinished or not) and I will keep you all updated on what I do with it!
I did end up leaving the chair as is after a good cleaning, and a girl immediately fell in love with it and snatched it up!Â
**SOLD**
Mini Chair Love
I came across this little lucite chair and table on Ebay (thinking it was life-sized). Did your Barbies have neat furniture like this? I think mine are jealous!
Â
Way cool vintage chair, even in a mini size, but I’d take the life-size set! 🙂
Mid Century Coffee Table
I have a gorgeous Mid Century Modern Coffee Table to add to the shop! The table is low and long, and gorgeous wood. The triangle pattern in the center is neat and the legs are that great MCM shape. The table is in great vintage condition but for one small mark in the top. It is refinish-able and would be perfect! Let me know if you are interested! 🙂

Chair Love Sale
This week I thought I would feature a chair that is going in the shop! This robins egg blue shell chair is marked “Krueger Metal Products Green Bay, Wisconsin” on the bottom. Isn’t it just so cute?
Typewriter Table Detailed
Sorry, I forgot to upload new pictures yesterday. But, today you get to see a lot of progress from the weekend! Here is the typewriter table that I showed you before. It is now finished and detailed!Â
Once I finished the second coat of white spray paint I arranged cardboard scrap-booking stencils in the placement I liked. I traced and filled the stencils with a paint pen. These little guys work great! I have used it on a couple of projects now and it always does the trick. I think it is super cute and ready to be used!
Little Bit Of Chair Love
I found this cute chair the other day on Design*Sponge in Jack and Lulu’s home sneak peak. The curvy lines on this chair match the bech seat I was loving the other day! The picture isn’t directly of the chair, but it’s right in front of the mirror here:
Â
I want it for my bedroom! 🙂
Chandelier For The Porch
Here it is. This is the fancy project I completely with the ugly, little, pink basket.Â
Here is the before picture:
Here is what I made:
I took a 75cent basket from the Salvation Army and spray painted it black. I hung crystals and beads on it and added a length of chain. I added some mini candles in jars and viola! We now have a chandelier above the ice cream table on the porch! I found this idea on Apartment Therapy and think its super cute. What do you think?
