I am bringing it back! #Wallpaper #BuyStock

Jul 16, 2014 - 0 comments

Well, I am making the wallpaper go away and then I am going to bring it back..in a very Darcy Pearl way. Both guest houses on the property are head to toe covered in horrible wallpaper. Even the light switches.

We Found the House... #BudaHouse #OldHouse

Jul 09, 2014 - 0 comments
We found our house...it's in Buda, Texas.  Built in 1928...with all its cuteness and charm.  But then we found a different house.  One that didn't any work at all. One that had a new pipes, floors, A/C, PAINT on the walls. We were 2 hours too short in putting in our offer. Really God said, "Nope, I have a house for you and it's in Buda! " And then he said,buda1

Part 3, The Customer Who Had It All #antiques #interiordecorating

If you missed part 1 and part 2, you can go there really quick and catch up!! Vada's dining room is not apart of the main living area, so it provided a good opportunity to change the wall color. She wanted the space to feel open with cool, fresh colors. We choose Clear to See PX-0697 from Behr. The dining room chairs are from a local design shop. Kasey recovered the seats with fabric from Cowgirls and Lace, painted and distressed them.  With my snazzy wheelin' & dealin', we got a kitchen table and 6 chairs for a great price. Wheelin' & dealin' is simply asking. You would be amazing how much money you can save by just asking...and having me there! The table that came with this set of chairs was not the style we were looking for so you know what we did, SOLD IT! The two chairs on the ends are from Restoration Hardware...again, on a super duper great sale!!  Sometimes staying in your budget is not the most important but getting exactly what you want is.....when you can do both. Jackpot! The dining room table is from Pottery Barn Outlet. It was a display and had scratches on the top and it was perfect. We wanted a table that was worn and had character.  Added an enamel antique white paint to the legs to match the chairs and the room was coming together.  Side note:  that enamel paint will burn your nose hairs and make you see Elvis...open the windows for sure.  We had Vada's dog bouncing off the walls.  The shorter antique buffet serves as a great display for her grandfather's cash register and other knick knacks he passed along to her. The wall above the buffet is waiting for Vada's vintage rolling pin collection.  A project she wants to do on her own time. Gotta love it when your customer gets inspired and takes ownership. The wall art is very special too.  It was hand made by Jo Momma's Junk  who has booth at the Wimberley Market Days with us. The colors are amazing and Vada loves to have scriptures displayed in her house. On to part 4 .....

1980's TV console transformed #tvconsole #reuse

Feb 27, 2014 - 0 comments
Imagine a Saturday morning as a kid watching cartoons in the middle of the living room floor. Many of you will remember watching on one of these. 20140226-212512.jpg When a sweet lady offered this outdated TV set to me, I immediately thought of the one I had pinned on Pinterest. YES! I started by gutting and ripping out all the parts to what used to be a working TV when it was placed in my possession. A moment of silence while a few of you yell at me... Ok back to the destruction. Here are a few pictures of some of the guts that got ripped out. 20140226-214854.jpg 20140226-214904.jpg Then the painting began! I painted two coats on by hand then three coats of spray paint. Ahhh I love white paint on almost anything, clean, crisp and timeless!!! 20140226-215131.jpg Shelves were added and then the newest paint color I am obsessed with (Fish Pond by Behr), burlap and a new knob. Voila here's the final piece. Come see her, I've named her Jennifer because it was the most popular girls name in 1984 at Wimberley this weekend! Booth 189. $175 20140226-215850.jpg 20140226-215903.jpg 20140226-215915.jpg 20140226-215953.jpg 20140226-220023.jpg 20140226-220034.jpg 20140226-220040.jpg
