Art Deco Anyone?

My husband found this Art Deco buffet that was feeling pretty lonely covered up by other pieces of furniture and lacking its original beautiful sheen. So we loaded it up, completely sanded it down (by we, I mean he- my husband), and decided to give it a fresh coat of stain and also some indigo blue paint. At first we left it that way, but then decided it needed some distressing (something I usually don't do). It seemed like the distressing joined the sleek paint and natural wood together. I almost forgot to mention, the original wood hardware is still in amazing condition, not to mention super cool! So here it is. Tons of character, curves, and yes- storage too. You could use it for a buffet or even as a dresser because there are after all drawers and cabinets below. You can find this gem on my etsy shop.

My hubby found me some fantastic chairs today & then thought I should sell them! Silly, silly man! Glad he has an eye for things that make my heart skip a beat. Here they are, what do you think- keep or list on my shop?

Furniture Here, Furniture There, Furniture Everywhere

Well, let's see...our home computer was down, school started, so did multiple sports for our boys, and then of course we have been busy restyling lots of furniture. Honestly, too many pieces to list, but I wanted to share several of the most recent. Here they are, hope you enjoy!
