{ What's going on in the Workshop }

 It's only 16 days 'til Spring and I AM READY.
I've been channeling warmer weather through this coastal theme I've got
going on in the basement workshop.
So I thought I'd let you in with a little sneak peek at what
I've been creating.

We'll start with this dresser in Eulalie's Sky, by MMS Milk paint.
I feel like the buyer is required to have a beach house.
It's. Just. So. Perfect.


I'm tempted to keep this distress white and black buffet for myself, 
drop a sink in it and completely overhaul my master bath.


This locker is PERFECT next to an outside shower.
I think I'll add something to the front of it.
Maybe a number, maybe a stencil.
I don't know. Stay tuned for this one.


This is a cutie.


I'm struggling a little with this one.
I'm already on a third color.
Maybe a gray body and keep the drawers white.


3 little end tables perfect for next to a sofa or a bed.
The 2 tables on the bottom can be pulled together to create a mini coffee table
when company arrives.
A great size for a beach cottage.


I've been creating some recycled wood frames from left over scraps.
How cute is that baby?




 
 More frame scraps.


These lamp shades are painted with chalkboard paint.
So you can add messages to them.
I'll add some pom pom trim before I send them off for sale.


All of these items will be set up soon at 

See something you like?
Give them a shout.

{ Are you ready for the beach? }

Okay, I'm over Winter and planning for the Summer.
If you're from the East Coast, you'll be heading to Stone Harbor, Avalon, Cape May, and all parts of eastern New Jersey as soon as Memorial Day hits.
If you're lucky enough to have your own place there, you'll probably be cleaning up and refreshing your summer cottage too.

Well, lucky for you, I'm doing all the hard work for you.
I am currently filling my garage with furniture perfect for your beach house.
I've been using Annie Sloan chalk paint, Provence being my current fav.


And, Miss Mustard Seed Milk Paint,
Kitchen Scale and French Enamel are this weeks fav there.
So many options
But of course I have my favorites!
Right now I'm loving all blues, greens, and grays.


Which is fitting, because I took my "Color Personality" test from BHG and found out
that "this" is my palette...


Want to know your color personality?
take this test...

I started a board on Pinterest for some Summertime
furniture inspiration - 


I love all these colors.
They are fresh, clean, and add just the right amount of color
for a beach house.

So, I've got lots of furniture coming your way.
You can find my goodies for sale at
