Wow, it’s been a busy summer! I’ve had some home projects I’ve been working on and between that and my love of trail running and hiking I’ve hardly had time for furniture projects. I feel like once the weather warms up here in the Midwest, I have to get outdoors and enjoy every minute of … More Rosie – A vintage cabinet
I found this vintage dresser on Marketplace for $65. I love the claw feet! It’s a solid wood dresser and the drawers still work great. It had some damaged spots and the only original hardware is the round metal knobs on the top row of drawers. The pulls on the lower drawers were missing and … More Luna – A Vintage Dresser
This coastal cutie caught my attention on Marketplace and I just had to have it! It was stained so bad from cigarette smoke it looked like it was yellow. Even scrubbing with vinegar and baking soda didn’t remove it! It reeked of smoke as well. What do you think of Sunshine now??? After scrubbing each … More Sunshine – A Coastal hutch
I was purchasing another piece of furniture from a seller on Marketplace when I spied this chest of drawers among several other items they had for sale. I thought it looked like something you’d see in a castle on the HBO series Game of Thrones. Kahl Drogo, played by Jason Mamoa, is a warlord in … More Khal Drogo – The Medieval Chest
Ariel was one of two tables I bought at a yard sale earlier this year. I thought $10 was a bargain for a vintage, solid wood table with drawers. Other than some minor … More Ariel – The Vintage Side Table
Eloise was quite a project but I had a lot of fun changing up her look! When we loaded her up in the truck to bring her home we had to remove the wood finial on the top to get the tailgate closed. After I got her home I decided I like … More Eloise – A vintage secretary desk
This maple vanity was one of five pieces of furniture I scored when a realtor friend of mine was clearing out a house and offered them to me. The label on the back shows it was made by Showers Brothers Furniture Co., Bloomington, Indiana. It was sold and shipped to Connie and Don Ray of … More Sherry – A Vintage Vanity
“You are and you will always be the most beautiful season of my life“ This cedar chest belonged to my Great Aunt Jessie and was handed down to me many years ago upon her passing. It still has the key that fits in the lock and the original wooden wheels. I decided a while … More Jessie – The Antique Cedar Chest
Sad Sammie was a freebie from a family member and at first glance, this poor old hope chest looked pretty hopeless! I love the carved detailed border around the lid but I’m not so fond of the “evil eye” applique on the front. There was a huge gash on the right corner of the lid. … More Sammie – The Vintage Cedar Chest
My friend Barb always finds the greatest “smalls” for me. She picked up this little table at a sale somewhere for $12! That orangish stain though… 🤢 Sometimes when I see a piece of furniture I know right away what I want to do with it and other times, like with this one, I have … More Miss “B” – The Little drop leaf table
