A few curious finds

In my travels i sometimes come accross a few things that i simply have to have. My dear bloggie buddy Vanna over at "Delusions of Grandeur" hosts her flea market finds, some wonderful things , i might add. Inspired by her i thought ide show u all a few things that i bought this week.........First thing being these 3 beautiful tapestries.  I have a feeling that 2 of them will end up in the dining room............

The colors in this one are so striking, i think it'll be going into the patriotic guest room(another work in progress, lol).......The other 2 which are a romantic "garden scene" will be turned into pillows?....that i can move around when i get bored, each one measures about 76" by 36", big huh!

Mr. Aubusson aint got nuthin on "The Hopeless Romantic"......he he. Well enuff playin around , i gotta get back to work, I just finished painting the dining room table and im working on distressing it.......

Im very pleased with the way its coming along thus far...u can see the matching chair transformation here. Its so hot out, but gotta get back to work......so dont forget if ur working outside drink plenty of water, and dont forget its AlWAYS cooler on the tile.....LOL

Im in love wit dis table................

Ok, i confess, the headboard isnt ALL ive been up to. Inbetween staples ive managed to finish painting the new coffee table. OMG(said in my best "valleygirl" voice), im so happy with it, i think im in love, of course no offense to Mr. Romantic, lol. Ive declared this "My Last Coffee table". I dont know about anyone else, but when i paint a piece, especially one this intricate, i bond with the piece, with each stroke of my brush the table and i become one............Alright, i know that sounded weird, lol, but i think yall know what i mean. Enjoy the pics and be sure to let me know what cha think............toodles, Bonnie

You can see the table in its "before" state  here. But why would ya wanna? It looks sooooo much better now, lol!

There's no place like home

Ive been so busy with a special project, i will soon be posting it for all of u to see... Meanwhile, please join me at Courtney's. I thought ide link with a few pics of my own feathered nest and the ones that share it with me. Also linking up for another newbie party. See u there.

Stinky just loves Rachel Ashwell....................

I had these slipcovers made from a retired simply shabby chic pattern that i bought off ebay. Actually "Stinky" isnt allowed on the sofa, i guess he didnt get the memo though, lol. No, really, ive given up tryin to keep our stinky beagle off the sofa, thank goodness for slipcovers!
