{ Vintage Painted Furniture }

I've been doing lots of furniture painting this summer.
But, I notice I have only been sharing pictures of the pieces on instagram.
Shame on me.
So, I'll make up for that by posting this gorgie gorge vintage white table.
It's super smooth thanks to tons of sanding.
And here's my Vanna White fill in (and her side-kick Shleppy) to show it to you.










and another token kid/dog pic to make you smile.



I'll be shipping this off to my booth at Serendipity soon.
But, if you are dying to take it right out of my driveway you are welcome to.
I am located in the suburbs of Philadelphia.
email me is your interested.   Denise @ PaintedHome@gmail.com

I'll also have a booth at the Chestnut Hill Location of Clover 
market on Oct. 27th with more great vintage finds.

{Hiding your internet router }


This project is one of my favorite up-cycling projects!
So easy and so necessary! 



I removed most of the pages from one of the vintage books I had laying around.


...sat the router inside the book sideways...

{ PA 100 Mile Yard Sale }


I have always wanted to go to the Longest Yard Sale, also known as the 127 corridor sale. But the dates never worked for me. That sale travels from Michigan all the way south to Alabama. Some day I'll get to that sale.
In the mean time I found out that there is a 100 mile yard sale in my home state of Pennsylvania.
This...was doable!
I whipped out the map and figured out our route.
I found a cutie little campground called Woodlands Campground and reserved a cabin for the weekend.


I was dying to find some vintage treasures at the sale and was happy to see the vintage playground at the campground to get the ball rollin'.





The sale begins on a Friday (some on Thursday) , so I headed out to hit some sales right after our 4 hour drive to the cabin on Friday.

I didn't purchased everything you see here, but they made such great photos, I had to show you them.




















I'll be posting projects I made with all these treasure soon...
