Have you all gotten your Christmas shopping and planning done? I only have a few more gifts to purchase and I'll be set. I still can't believe how fast this year has flown by.
I'm so excited to show you guys my new night stand...well, actually Mr. T's new night stand! I found it at the local art shop a friend of mine owns ( I find lots of great finds @ Union County Arts). It's not a new idea, but one that I have loved for some time and just never got around to making. Thankful that someone local loved this same idea! You guys know how a to do list grows.....but sometimes never gets done, I know I can't be the only one.
First, I'll show you the new night stand since I'm super happy about it.
I love old windows no matter how they look, I love the history, the imperfections, and all the versatile uses they have. I created a "vintage wedding window" that holds (6) 8x10's of my wedding, and hung it on my side of the bed. That window made this table even more perfect!
Here's the desk I used before, I snagged it up for $5 @ Goodwill 50% off about a year ago, and repainted it white. It was terribly painted in a lilac and black combo....Yuck! This desk has made its appearance around the house in a few spots. I decided to part ways with it and give it to my brother, who needed a night stand himself. FYI- the crochet basket is from UCA as well, see...told you there are great finds there!
I decked it out with some pretty vintage finds.
Do you guys have any ideas on what I could place on display? I thought maybe
old family photos...or old local landmark photos.
Hope you all have a great weekend! My forecast has lots and lots of rain here!
