New Business

Hi, I bet you all have been wondering where I have been. Well, for the past two weeks I have been concentrating on scavenging for old pieces of furniture and remodeling them. I didn't think I would do this, but the opportunity presented it self and I went for it. I do find it difficult at times to manage everything, but I am determined to make this work. I manage my time and give a little to housework, kids, hubby, cooking, cleaning, working out, painting, picking and myself. Not necessarily in that order. I do want to share with you the work I have been doing and the products I used. I also plan on explaining how to use these products.

Anyway, here is a piece I have been working on and wanted to share with you. About two weeks ago I found this lovely Bombay foyer table and I just love the way it looks and I was able to buy it for cheap. Here is the before:


I went with Annie Sloan Old White and clear wax. I just love how it turned out. What do you think?




Do you remember back in April 24, 2012 I wrote a post on chairs I planned on redoing? Well, I am redoing them now. LOL, click here to see a before. This is just one chair, I have three more to go, but what do you think of this chair?


I wanted this child's rocker to be for a boy or girl. I spray painted it pure white and than I sealed it. I love how it turned out too. I have a foot stool, ottoman, and some frames to share with you in a couple of days. I'll keep posting on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I appreciate you coming along with me on this new adventure. Thank you so much for stopping by and I LOVE your Sweet comments.

Hugs,

Vanessa

  6. I've been browsing online more than 2 hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours. It is pretty worth enough for me. In my view, if all site owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the web will be a lot more useful than ever before.

  7. Hmm it seems like your website ate my first comment (it
    was extremely long) so I guess I'll just sum it up what I had written and say, I'm thoroughly enjoying your blog.
    I too am an aspiring blog writer but I'm still new to everything. Do you have any suggestions for newbie blog writers? I'd definitely appreciate it.
