the best birthday present ...

i've been looking everywhere for a china cabinet JUST like this one , so when i found it i almost screamed!  it has the etch work and beautiful curvature at the top! my grandmother and i drove about an hour n a half in POURING rain to get this peice.. you should have seen how we wrapped it for the ride back.. either way, i had no part on making this the master piece it now is.. all credits go to gram! check out what she did! 

knobs i found at anthropology.

 fell in love stay tuned to see the matching table she is working on for me ! i can't wait to finally put my dining room together ! - bam it's vintage glam

here is a before picture of one of my dining room chairs, stayed tuned to see the outcome!

black iron to a glamorous treasure *

ok here i go!

first time blogger so give me some slack!

this piece is from my mother in law. She had no use for it so gave it to Sean and I ... and this is how i spiced it up! follow along :)

here it is ... boring

 i used my new favorite color paint, which is a light teal blue. painted just one coat then let it dry

 once it dried i got my also new favorite sand paper , its the best . i also pulled out a packet of gems i had. start slightly sanding the edges to give it an antique look , once you've got your desired amount of distressing done you can add your touch of glam! I pulled out my glue gun and placed four teardrop shaped gems on each corner... check it out !

please excuse the mirrored image!

next i decided to be a little daring, this is a rubber stamp my Gramma Kay picked out for a previous project i will post about later.. i used a stain stamp, but i suggest a light color paint if you attempt this...

i stamped each spot ! and Bam , it's vintage glam ! hope you enjoyed .. more to come !
