Vintage Cupboard Re-Make




I love vintage furniture...and could not resist this piece with the hammered strap hinges. I purchased this bottom kitchen cabinet and enlisted Bobby to attach the upper portion with cubbies to add height. A distressed mustard finish with black flecks and " Ta-Dah" ...a great cupboard for a French Country Kitchen or storage for a mudroom or office.


This cupboard is now for sale at Old South Antique Mall in Dothan, Alabama.

Summertime Slips







Summertime...a great time for get-togethers and cook-outs in the garden and around the pool. A great time, too, to update worn outdoor furniture with fresh, new fabrics and paint. There are lots of websites and local fabric stores offering sales on outdoor fabrics. And, with so many designs from which to choose, you will probably find that your options are limitless. You can select companion fabrics to mix and match, or go out on a limb to create your own combination of color and pattern.



It is a lot easier to select your fabrics first, then choose your paint colors for accent pieces such as a second hand coffee table or side tables made using old windows.



These blue print cushion and pillow slipcovers detail self-cording and contrast print boxing along with zippered closures. The zippered covers allow the owner to remove these summertime slips to reveal brown cushions and pillows for fall and winter.



Call or email me to set up a consultation for discussing your outdoor space.
