| Chocolate tree....shabby chic mantle :) |
 |
| Upside down tree with HUGE twine and strap bow. |
 |
| Mixing the glass and silver with the casual bow topper. |
 |
| Barn tree with BIG aluminum "ribbon" |
 |
| Rusty hoe and copper |
 |
| Vintage ornament tree in tub with burlap |
 |
| Simple.... easy. |
 |
| Movie tree ! |
 |
| 35mm garland :) |
 |
| Creating the "store front" with the porch rails and suspended windows |
 |
| Future kitchen corner |
 |
| Free and cheap stuff worked perfect for my "walls" |
 |
| View from the outside corner |
 |
| View from an inside corner, window and screen suspended |
 |
| Filling up the kitchen corner |
 |
| Open for now.... more windows, doors, and ladders next week :) |
 |
| Peeling veneer.... I have a plan :) |
 |
| Weathered wood attached over the old top |
 |
| White paint, then a little shabby technique |
 |
| Character lines.... blue and yellow |
 |
| Paint was lightly dragged over the dried wood finish, then sanded on the edges. |
 |
| Machine was removed, top was screwed down. Just add a lamp and your pretty collections :) |
 |
| 2 oak drawers flipped upside down. Legs attached on the sides to create a table for planting, or serving food/beverages. |
 |
| A shabby window was attached to the back for interest. A hook allows for a sign, or a hanging pot. |
 |
| Similar idea as before... this sturdy drawer had great advertising on the side. |
 |
| Picket fence parts were added as table legs. |
 |
| Just a whimsical thought. This pot was jacked up on the side, so I screwed an old belt around the top. |
 |
| Add burlap, dirt and it's ready for a plant ;) |
 |
| Oak architechural piece was added to fill a space... |
 |
| Door bling... very unique lock |
 |
| Shabby chic all-around... |
 |
| Full or queen. Pale spring green paint :) |
 |
| The drawers were missing and the top was in bad shape. |
 |
| An old cabinet door with the hardware still attached made a GREAT new top. |
 |
| And another matching door with the hinges made a great new front. This is permanently attached. |
 |
| The paint revealed some embossed lettering in the door that went un-noticed. The screen material was added for fun :) |
 |
| Ready for the porch! |
 |
| Acrylic chandelier prisms and rusty gear nuts |
 |
| It looks just like a planter basket.... it's actually an industrial light cage cover. Perfect :) |
 |
| Mix in the prisms and twist the wire around for some curly interest. |
 |
| Prisms are going to be great sun-catchers! |
 |
| Add a few more at the top for the finish! |
