A Little White Table

I'm still on vacation but taking a break from skiing today.  I want to share one of my latest projects with you.  I built this little white table using scrap wood, moulding and railing balusters for the legs.  I have so much fun building these little tables because each one is unique and I never quite know how it is going to turn out while I'm building it.  Here she is all finished and styled in my entry way.  Let me just mention here that what you don't see is the other four little tables I have scattered about my entry way and living room waiting to be sold or photographed.  I do have a tiny little problem with separation anxiety when I have to take these to the antique mall or shop I sell at to be sold so sometimes they start to pile up!

Here's a close up of the legs that I made out of railing balusters.

That's all I have for now.  Have a great day!

Getting Attached and Separation Anxiety

I am a self proclaimed borderline hoarder.  Well, minus the flat dead cats, rotting year old pumpkins and garbage.  With this being true it makes my new interest of restyling furniture kind of interesting.  I now get to justify the things that I buy and the things I won't get rid of because I'm going to "re-do" them and "sell" them.  (I use the word "sell" very loosely because when I finish something and it turns out really cute I have a hard time parting with it and taking it to my antique booth.)  I also have been collecting so very many pieces of furniture, antiques, primitives, etc.  Most recently it was this chair that I really wanted to keep.

I did, grudgingly, load it in my  Jeep and bring it over to my booth.  It hasn't sold yet, though, hmmm..............

I do feel that I am getting a little better at giving things up.  I am finding that there is always another one right around the corner.  

Here is a photo of some cute little nightstands I just finished and brought over to my booth on friday.  These were a bit hard to part with as well.  

Good night for now!

Show and Tell

It's funny, when I was a child I would get so excited for show and tell and make sure I had the perfect item to bring, however, when it was time and the teacher asked, "Who has something for show and tell?", I would never raise my hand.  I got cold feet.

I kind of feel the same way when it comes to posting photos of my work on Facebook or on my blogs.  Because of this, I tend to put off posting and go for months sometimes with no posts.  

I am going to be more fearless.  I love to get the feedback and validation that my stuff is "good enough".  So here are some photos of recent work.

Comments are much appreciated and enjoyed!  Have a great weekend!
