Found this desk abandoned, lonely and in need of much repair. With the help of my handy husband it is looking lovey and ready for a home.
I painted it white and distressed it to show a little of the line details



This little dresser was a listing from a listing on Craiglist. A nice "grandpa-like" man was downsizing his house and was getting rid of a lot of furniture. I made out with a truck load of great finds. I did love the blue color of the dresser but it had too much damage to keep it "as is." So once again my handy husband fix all of her problems and I painted it white and added some new handles and she is just as cute as can be!

Just finished this Memo Board today.

I found the poor lil' thing in a junk pile alone and wanting to be loved!!
It was a lovely shade of brown...imagine 1980's! After a little sanding, painting and some embellishments I think it is perfect for anyone's kitchen or office!

Found this cabinet on during neighborhood junk days. I sanded, primed, painted & distressed it and now it fits perfectly in our house. I painted the inside cabinet turquoise but forgot to take a picture of it, I just need to add handles to the drawers but I am trying to find some old garden faucet handles to use for that!

Doug & Barb (owners of the restaurant I work at & my friends) told me they had an old window from their house that they are remodeling and was wondering if I wanted it. Of course, I wanted it...it was old and best of all FREE!
When they brought it to me my heart skipped a beat and my mind was spinning with all sort of idea's. I came home that night and walked around the house (very quietly trying to not wake up the kids and husband) until I figure out the best idea.

So here it is... I bought the letters at Joann's and painted them white and the edges orange. The window is left as-is.


Thanks Doug and Barb, I will always have a "Good Night" sleep
with that above my bed!
