October 18th Sale

Wondering when/where you can see and buy my custom furniture? We will be at the GrandDaddys annual fall yard sale in Burlington on October 18th at 7:00 am!


There will be freebies, business cards, and tons of furniture! My husband will also have a large amount of vintage toys and video games, along with normal yard sale type items. I look forward to seeing you there.

Raleigh Flea Market!

We had a great time at the Raleigh flea Market back in July (I can't believe it's been that long!).

Our fun adventure started very early on Saturday, we struggled to pack everything in the SUV and my dad's trailer. We even had to leave stuff behind because we just didn't have enough room! Arriving at the flea market was so exciting! We found our spot and got to work on setting up. Sadly many of my furniture pieces were scratched and rubbed on the very bumpy trailer and got set to the back for me to fix later. (Thankfully everything could be repaired) We got help from some of our flea market neighbors to unpack the bigger furniture (Thank You!) and started selling almost the second we had everything out of the truck.



My husband had a lot of luck with his vintage toys and video games selling at first, but in no time my pieces were finding new homes!

We got to meet so many wonderful people, and wished that we had went ahead and printed business cards to have ready for the sale. Next time we will be ready.

And I'm so excited these pieces all found new homes along with tons of vintage books, decorative items, a vintage set of green luggage, lacy curtains, and so much more I can;t even remember.


We will be heading out again soon for our fall sale! Will be updating with more information soon.

Dark Blue Chair SOLD

I got so busy with getting things ready for our first sale that I didn't get the chance to post about any of the furniture I was getting ready. Hopefully I'll be able to update about all of my finished pieces very soon.

This chair came into my collection from my mother. She was at one of our favorite furniture stores and sent me a picture of a set of three chairs. This yellow one was in the background and I immediately sent her a text back about it. She sent back that she know I would like that one too!



I loved the details on the chair and the very sturdy design. It was older and the vinyl seat only added the age, even though it was still in really good condition.



I custom mixed the chalk pain to my liking and took a few nights to get good coverage on every little nook and cranny. It got a good coat of wax to seal it afterwards and then it was time to pick a fabric!


I love the squares! Very cute and modern and gives the whole chair a face lift!


 The details look really good with the dark blue color, I felt like the design looks so much better dark, and was a huge improvement over the faded yellow.


Sadly this chair is no longer for sale. It sold at my flea market sale to a wonderful lady who loved it! So happy it has a great home now.
