Let's Talk Vintage #96: Shop Updates & New Arrivals

Welcome to "Let's Talk Vintage!"

 

Each week, bloggers who love vintage

gather together and share their latest

junkin' hauls, projects, collections,

finds listed  for sale, and more.  

 

Today I'm sharing a couple of my most

recent projects and some shop updates.

 

 

I love how this dresser turned out.

 

 

 

Since there are multiple uses now for dressers, I decided to chalk paint this horizontal style piece in white and gray. I gave it a glamorous look by silver leafing all of the drawer pulls.

 

 

Then the top was given a special look with this stencil.

Now it is ready to be given a new home...

as a dresser, buffet, or baby a baby

changing table.

 

 

I still had some Annie Sloan paint left

so I decided this nightstand would be perfect

for a soft pink and cream. Lovely for a baby's

room or for a vintage style girl's room.

 

 

I painted the drawer pull in a shabby metallic, not completely covered, but just enough to look vintage.

 

 

The feet on this piece were not very

noticeable until I highlighted

areas in cream. Looks like icing

on a cake!

 

 

The hubby worked on this old kitchen

table and turned it from drab to fab!

I asked him to add the red "graphic"

trim on the table top. It really made it pop! 

 

 

I gave new life to a small half-moon

style side table and found this awesome

hand crafted basket by "Harry & David."

It was perfect for a box of silk flowers

I had picked up at a yard sale.

I love its new look!

(The table has already sold.)

 

 

I added this pretty mirror... love the

rich color of the frame.

 

 

And we added this beautiful Italian marble

coffee table for filler... such gorgeous lines.

 

 

So now we have a pretty nice

repertoire in the shop.

 

August has been a little on the slow side...

but since I am still managing my Etsy shops,

I have plenty to do!

 

Now let's get to this week's features:

 

 

The French Hutch shared her beautiful

gift of peaches and a homemade ice cream

recipe that is no doubt, pretty sweet!

 

 

and Heidi of My Sweet Cottage

shared her wonderful, three season 

greenhouse. She grows a treasure 

trove of beautiful things in there!

 

 

and Sandi of Old New Green Redo

shared her latest finds and this

antique pitcher is gorgeous.

Thanks so much for sharing it with us!
