Shabby Chic Love

Marilyn had curves and so do my two finds of the week!

The french demilune console table is one curved beauty.  Just listed on Etsy, it is true shabby chic love!  This piece was so much fun to paint.  I did it in a cream wash and then sanded it back to reveal the lovely stenciling underneath.  I also happen to love the legs :)

Lovely Lines

The absolute, without doubt, funnest thing in the WORLD, is finding that hidden gem buried amidst junk at a yardsale or thrift store.  I just grin from ear to ear when I see something that will transform into a beautiful piece for the home. 

Another love of mine is perusing the blog world, pinterest, and magazines for design inspiration.  I love all design.  Sometimes, when I see a really beautiful picture, I actually get teary eyed!  I love beautiful things and wanted to share a few of my favorites.  You can see the lovely lines that I look for and imagine my joy at finding them and bringing their beauty back to life.
