I was in "crafty mood" this morning and this is what I did.

I picked up this birdcage in thrift shop last week for a $2.00


And here's the AFTER picture





And here's my plain aqua lamp


Added some fabric rose and vintage pearl. Viola!


Hope you all like it. :)

Been absent so much lately. Nothing exciting to blog about. But I could tell you about how I’ve been working on our furniture business. We weren’t expecting to get sales so quickly, so we're very happy. I just wanted to post a project that I did. I bought this Balinese sideboard last year. We're using this as "tv unit". I've been wanting to paint it but I never get a chance.

So here's it is...


The sideboard was painted white, then distressed.




Does anyone know someone that can make me a website (with flash)? At an affordable price? If you do please don't hesitate to email me on ma1n5t@hotmail.com

Hi everyone! Been a long time since I updated my blog. I've been busy catching up with all the house chores that I have not been able to complete due to visitors and other leisure activities. Just wanted to post this gorgeous sideboard that I have painted two weeks ago. I love this piece! My plan was to lightly scratch some small areas to create a slight rustic look but I decided to let my husband work out what he wanted to do with it. This is how it turned in the end and we are both very happy with the outcome, that now we are so attached to this item that we feel unsure about selling it.








Isn't it gorgeous? Hope you all like it!

Hi everyone? Hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Just wanted to show off my latest finished project. Remember my blog post last week about my big haul of antiques? Well, I managed to finished one yesterday. I painted this gorgeous dining set white then I sanded the corners for that rustic look.


Here's the picture of the table and the ladder chairs I posted last week.

Hey Everyone, just posting some pictures of bookcase/hutch that I've painted last week. I painted it dark grey instead of white. I sanded it a little bit for that rustic look.

Hi everyone, really sorry for lack of post I've been very busy with lots of stuff. My furniture are getting popular on Ebay. I've sold so many furnitures these past few weeks. That's why I've been away because I have to finish painting my other furnitures. I've been running out of stock so I have to keep with the demanding orders.


Just posting some pictures of the side table that I bought last week. I was shopping around the local thrift/op shop when I found this gorgeous piece.

Before




After


I think the table came up really lovely and instead of painting the top I have left it natural. It has a beautiful leather finish with really nice details. I was actually going to sell this but decided to keep it for myself.

Just wanted to say thank you as well for those who left me sweet comments. Sorry if I havent been able to drop by to your blog but I promise I will come and visit you. Hope you all have a wonderful night.
