First to go!

This cute lil foyer table was the "first to go" at our Tag Sale this past weekend. Isn't she cute? Wow, the crowd picked us clean! Thank you to all who came and BOUGHT!! Most of our inventory was purchased on our June trip to Canton, TX at the big monthly flea market there. Great sale! We're going to do it again in October! Come see us!

Aging Beautifully


Today as DH and I are outside preparing for the upcoming Tag Sale, I noticed some of our furniture is kinda like we are , some has aged better than others! One thing that is aging beautifully right now though are my drying hydrangeas by the back door. We've "babied" these plants for the past 2 years and this year they blessed us with beautiful blooms! So I decided I'd save some. Aren't they beautiful? If you have hydrangeas, do you dry them and get to enjoy them for even longer?

It's beginning to look a lot like...


a tag sale!! Our garage is filling up for next week's sale. Our customers tell me they expect to see cute cottage painted furniture at this sale, so we're getting there! This is the kitchen table and 2 matching chairs, that I glazed over white. They are adorable and only $125 for all 3 pieces!!

I have a new friend!


Have you tried this stuff? Wow, how easy to use. As we prepare our treasures for the Summer Tag Sale, thought I'd give a little kitchen set a different look, it turned out so cute. I'll post pictures of the table and chairs finished tomorrow. If you haven't used this, next time you distress a piece of furniture and want to give it a little more pizazz, pick ya up some of this glaze at Lowe's. It's easy as pie to use, wipe on...wipe off!

Before and After




Ran across these pics of a before and after we did awhile ago, thought I would remind people of the power of paint. Can you believe the difference a coat of white paint made on this old tea cart? Night and day difference from a tired old cart to a revived and jazzy something to use now! We do alot of painting in our business, it is amazing what a coat of a paint can do! Try it the next time you think something looks old and tired. See the difference for yourself!
