FURNITURE REHAB:

The hubs and I just started rehabing old "needy" furniture...and are having a blast.
In recent days...redecorating our own home...we would be standing out in our front yard,
painting and staining away at old furniture and garage sale finds as we couldnt justify buying all new pieces...for as many people that
would stop and ask ..." hey, is that for sale?"; I turned to Gibs and said..."Maybe this is something we should try our hand at"....and so...

WE DID! 

Pictured Above and Below:
Some fun Summer and Spring Pieces
for "THE HUMBLE BUNGALOW"
thick hand-painted wooden bowls
...to display your lemons and limes for all those
summertime drinks!
(these, as well as a larger orange bowl, will be available at our May show at Bloss House)



Both the above and below chairs were in pretty desperate need when we got our hands on them.
At the time, I didn't know that we would be turning our hobby in to possible business venture...and so, I did not take before pictures :(.....but after much sanding, reinforcing, many coats of paint.....and brand new upholstry.....our first chairs up for grabs...We are sooo PROUD of how beautiful they turned out.

We are having so much fun doing something TOGETHER...creating something beautiful out of "needy" pieces...REHABING old and giving it new life while keeping the charm and integrity with fun and whimsical MODERN  twists..ENJOYING an accomplishment...JOINTLY.
