Hello......today I thought I would share some before and after pictures. I'm a very visual person.....and I love seeing before and after pictures in other blogs.  It shows you how much potential there is for old unique things.

A plain wood bread box transformed into a shabby chic beauty.

Here I painted and distressed....then added lace to the insert for hanging earrings and put 5 hooks under the shelf for hanging necklaces on.

Here again was on old BROWN shelf.....but it had such lovely lines and detail.  Shabby it up and it has a new life.

This wren house painted white, distressed and added  decoupage roses cut out from wallpaper.

A plain outhouse for extra toilet paper.

Old brown suitcase painted white,distressed and decoupaged old sheet music inside.

I hope this has inspired you to transform an old treasure you might have hanging around. Enjoy and good luck with your project!

Hello

Again...it's been a while since I posted anything.  I'm keeping busy, but forget to post projects when they are finished.  Today I will share a few before and after projects.  And maybe a few things I finished.

This is a cute little table I found in the fall. To top was metal/enamel, but it had lots of rust around the edges.  So I decided to decoupage it!

Here are a few pictures on how it turned out.  I was really happy with the end result.  I'm now using it in the back of the shop for my computer table.  But it's really not big enough.  When I find a replacement, it will be for sale in the shop.

Before: A beautiful maple end table.

After:  All shabby and chic!

Above are some projects I finished, that I forgot to take before pictures of....sorry.

I hope to get more projects finished in the next few weeks.  And I will try hard to remember to take BEFORE pictures.

Until next time......Dream big!

Blessings

Hello Everyone and HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Sorry I've haven't been blogging, but I have been very busy.  I've moved my shop "Vintage Treasures" from Whippletree Junction, Duncan, BC to the town of Chemainus, BC on Vancouver Island.  I'm still getting organized. So I haven't had much time to work on projects. I think some early mornings and late nights are in order!

Here is one project I finished today.  Yahoo!

Here are some pictures of the new shop.

This is Ernie who usually visits the shop everyday along with my Mom and Dad!

Well I better get back to work.

Wishing you all a wonderful day!

Blessings
