New Pieces For The Store

Freshly painted Chippendale chair with a discontinued Lee Jofa fabric sample covering
the seat.
This is a great occasional chair for a desk, in a hallway, or at a dressing table.
This bed tray was found at SPCA Shop, it was black with a map of Jamaica map in the
square and marijuana leaves in the corners. I gave it a very feminine look, more in keeping
with the Sunday morning in bed tray.
I painted butterflies and hydrangeas in the corners, two of my favorite things.

This is my $10.00 yard sale chair, I found this fabric online for $5.00 a yard. I liked
the soft cool colors of the print.

Totally new look for this cute little slipper chair. Not too feminine, but still very cute.
These chairs are great in a dressing room or bedroom were they are used for putting on
those fancy shoes with all those laces and buckles.

This chair I rescued from a thrift store, it needs a little work and maybe some new
fabric, but this Queen Anne has good bones.
This chair my upholsterer rescued from a dumpster and gave to me, we used the extra
fabric from the old Duncan Phyfe sofa I recovered earlier this year.

Duncan Phyfe Sofa Before and After and a Birthday Celebration

A couple of months ago I bought an antique
Duncan Phyfe Sofa to redo.
I found a  neutral fabric in a tan and white Greek Key cotton. And had the sofa
reupholstered. see the end results.....





Isn't she a beauty?
Last Sunday my sister and I took my Mom out to Barren Ridge Vineyards
to celebrate her birthday. It was a beautiful day, we did a tasting, Mom's
husband Ted joined us and we had wine and food on the terrace.


I got into trouble for posting these pictures on Facebook with Mom's age. Oh well,
embrace life and your age. i am 53!
