Nashville Flea Market

Image
I spent the day at the Nashville Flea Market with my second main man, my son, Keith. I am excited to show you what we picked up... Great old Bingo Cards with a great added touch of old fabric This little wooden box is going to be used outside this summer holding plates and napkins Love this old wood...I'm thinking chalkboard paint or maybe something neat mod podged on it Neat black shutter and an old sugar bag And this little thing was my favorite.  Not exactly sure where it will reside, but I do have something on my mind...I'll share that with you when it takes its place Oh, how I wish...I loved these chairs, but they had to stay at the flea market.  This big orange fridge did not come home with me either, but my daughter would have been thrilled if it could have And, now I have to show you two sweet sweet people I met at the flea market and one of the main reasons I wanted to go today.  I found out about this neat lady on her blog,  Nostalgia Gal , and couldn't wait to me

Eddie Ross Sold My Chairs!

Image
Last weekend Hubby and I went to the Richmond Home Show.   Eddie Ross  was doing a presentation on using color in your home. I saw Eddie In November when he did a show for Richmond Magazine and he did such a great job I was excited to see him again. We both really enjoyed his presentation and his philosophy that you don't have to spend a fortune to have a beautiful home.   On Twitter Eddie mentioned his visit to Richmond and West End Antique Mall, where I happen to be a dealer. He posted a photo of two chairs in my space that he liked. OMG, The Eddie Ross likes my taste!  A couple of days later a lady saw the chairs on Twitter and came into West End Mall and bought them.  Thank you Eddie for helping with this sale and when you are back in Richmond I owe you lunch!  SOLD

Wedding Coaster

Image
I know we have all been there and done that, but I did one more. I love the mod podged coasters and have made several different ones, but I have found my favorite and wanted to show you. I took one of my wedding napkins that I had saved for now almost 20 years and turned it into a wonderful keepsake. After a little mod podge and just a little effort, I had this... I love this and, of course, we all know how easy they are to make. Do you have a wedding napkin, baby shower or another keepsake napkin or piece of paper?  Try it for an awesome way to preserve a memory.  I'm thinkin we could even take a little love note from our hubbies and use that.  I am linking this easy little project up over at Finding Fabulous  and The Shabby Nest  and Funky Junk Interiors

Closet Cleanup

Image
Most of my closets are in fairly good condition in my home.  (notice that I used the word fairly)  I do have one closet, however, that was Terrible with a capital T.  I mean like tornado, hurricane terrible.  Yesterday I decided that something had to change.  This closet is in our playroom/school room/craft room/pool table room.  Can you tell this is a very multi purpose room?  And as for the crafting and pool table part...I have layed a big sheet over the pool table and it doubles as my crafting table.  It is used way more for crafting than for pool so it works well for me. This little closet holds lots of school related things, games, dress up clothes and much much more.  All of it is mostly my seven year olds stuff.  Can you say TOO MUCH STUFF with me real loud so she can hear you? You will cringe when you see the before...Are you ready? I know...you don't have to say it. That is dress up clothes, my friends, and they were everywhere. I know, it's awful!!! Are you wondering
