Class and Trash Makeovers!!!

One of my favorite places to find incredible stuff is

.......Class and Trash in Ashland......

Lisa and Ken and Marlin ROCK!

Here are a few things I found there yesterday:

 A couple of pleather 70's ottomans........

 Got new clothes!!....

I used the remnants of the canvas printed area rug that I recovered my stairs with.

Come on and get 'em! 

$55 each/$100/pair.

 Cute little piano stool with awesome walnut legs..

 I did this for my client, Nancy, 

to match the chair and pillows in her living room.

If it doesn't work for her, it's going in my booth.

$79.

 I love this sweet little primitive corner cabinet.

This would be awesome in a shop to display little soaps, or garden stuff.

 Especially now that it's been "gardened up."

I painted the interior in Annie Sloan Chalk Paint in Antibes Green. 

Then I drybrushed some French Linen onto the white, and edges,

 and then added a stain layer of Weathered Oak to all.

Going to the booth for $169.

 And this little bench reminds me of the ones in the Sears and Roebuck house 

I grew up in...

It was white and just fine as it was...

 But you know me....always happy to reinvent.....

I painted the back panels in three different colors,

then added layers of dry brushed paints. 

Next, I used carbon paper to

trace on "happy trails to you."

Then I handpainted...

 Next I drilled holes and added these great little snail knobs 

I bought on sale at Anthropologie last week.

(Snails...and happy trails...get it??)

Next, I might finish it off with a bench cushion.

This is going to the booth, too.

You won't see another one like it, that's for sure.

Now it's back to Shuky's chair, which started like this:

 I'm making progress, Shuky!

I love my job.
