am happy to say i have put my amazon listings on hold to edit and update each and every listing there. WIll be back up and running soon~
I have been to many estate sales in my area and have found tons of new treasures to share with you~now...if only my smart phone would gain more memory i could actually use apps i would love to try such as 5miles and another i have tried but had to delete til i upgrade, instagram.
finally tried chalk paint. Thanks to The Vintage Depot in Davenport, Iowa where i invested in several jars of Heirloom Traditions Paint. Color to begin with as i have never broke down til now to try chalk paint, are Gypsy Green, gotta love that name and the color! Hillbilly Blue, and Buttermilk. No one can stop me now..
Retro Rally in Rock Island is a yearly car show and vendor booths event with live music, entertainment and fun. This year was my first attending. Even finally invested in a canopy tent. the only cold and rainy day this month, it dropped down to below 65 that day. Thank you to those who stopped and cheered me up and even bought things. My fingers were numb the entire day.
Best highlight/ was meeting The Artery gallery, Rock Island, Illinois owner and her mom. The invite stands for friday at 5. I will be there :).
this is the before picture...amazing, if you hadnt noticed you will find i have an addiction to buffets despite having a smaller 50s home and no dining room. This one is finally in the process of being painted.~
This one is still in storage. and soon It will be my next candidate with pretty colors of grey and maybe off white, look at the little ornate trim piece across the top...so cant wait to add some color and depth to this....and the rest will be a surprise...
This one has beautiful wood. all solid. no one wants it painted, yet no one wants to buy at the price i am asking. at least not in my area. look at those drawer pulls. this antique heavy and gorgeous monster of mission style or more primitive maybe...really deserves lots of polishing...not so sure painting would be good for it. i am torn...i love painting, but i love buffets just the way they are too.
