Coasters are Cute

Picked these up at Hanley Wood. They come in silver, gold and copper. Cute, but not sure how practical. Set of four: $21.

Reupholster underway

I love this loveseat, it has great gold detailing. (bad picture, bad pillows - ignore) But this little loveseat is not feelin' the love from that fabric! It needs a pick me up from a more modern fabric to give it a polished, sophisticated look.

Here are a few of my ideas... Fabric sample colors: avacado, wasabi, pale gold or onyx and ivory design

Hot Child in the City.

Antique shopping on a hot Thursday afternoon turned up some great finds. I love when something catches your eye in an array of clutter and junk and you know it was meant for you -- its like finding a diamond n' the rough. Here are a few diamonds I found along Hildebrand today. (I haggled, fyi Mom!) The lamp shade that came with the lamp was torn and yellow - so I spruced it up to give it a more modern look with a black shade with gold inner lining and added the spacer and 1940s amber head on top - vwah la.
