Beautiful Week.....

Wanna see my over-the-top, 2die4, drop-dead-gorgeous, piece de re'sistance....of course you do.  Ta...da........


When Dianne brought this into the shop it was love at first sight!
Didn't she do a beautiful job restoring this piece to its current loveliness.


Another project that I tackled last week was this little cabinet.
This is a corner in the bathroom that needed a little something.
I painted the cabinet paris gray and dry brushed it with white.


The shutters were $1. each and all they needed  was some paint and distressing.  They seemed like the perfect thing to add to the cabinet top.



Okay that's it. 
Get out there this week and create, make, paint, photograph, write, cook, repurpose or find something wonderful and share it with us.

~~hugs~~

Great table, Sissie! I just saw one of these, too, but it didn't look as pretty and I kind of just gave it a passing glance. Love the cabinet and shutters in your bathroom. I have a wall like that in ours and right now I have a simple stool on that wall. I love this idea though!

Linda said...

Sissie, wish I lived near your shop so I could browse and shop to my heart's content. On second thought, that wouldn't be a good idea for me at all-- I would go broke. Ha ha. That table is truly beautiful and the cabinet is not so bad itself. I like shutters a lot. Shannon

Cindy Adkins said...

Oh WOW, Sissie, I love your table and your cabinet!!! I know that this repurposing must have gotten into my brain (and heart) because I had a dream about Annie Sloan last night!! How funny is that? I knew that you are one person who could fully appreciate that! lol

P.S. I'd be over the moon over that table too if it was sitting in my livingroom!!!

Holly @ Bella Nest said...

Peggy said...

Oh my what a beautiful table! Aren't you the lucky girl? I also love your cabinet and shutters Paris Grey is one of my favorite ASCP colors. Thanks for sharing.

Lucille said...

You have such beautiful things, Sissie. I just love feasting my eyes on all the eye candy on your blog. That little table certainly is 2die4. It's marvelous. And the little bathroom cabinet is so original. I love the idea of the shutters on top and I love that gray and I agree with the blogger who said she likes the name of the paint colour. Everytime I read "create, make, paint, photograph, write, cook, repurpose," I feel so energized. Crazy, eh! But, those words of yours are so motivating!

Linda@Coastal Charm said...

Sissie,
This table is very charming and I'm lovin' that starfish lamp...is it from Homegoods?

Blessings,
Linda

{Bellamere Cottage} said...

Sissie......I swear, your blog should be called "Sissie Makes Everything Pretty".... love that little shuttered cabinet.... AND the shutters above. Just perfect.

The little end table? DIVINE.... and it's lookin' right at home in your pretty room too.

Have the test......it is totally painless. I won't lie to you about the prep......and I WAS STARVING when I left there, but the Dr. didn't find anything at all, so that was worth the suffering. GET IT DONE! :-)

Tara said...

Yep, that table is F.A.B.! It can be dangerous walking into the shop and buying from other vendors! Your shutter cabinet is great too, very beachy. I am also loving the blues and grays in your home. That's what's so wonderful about your color pallatte, it's neutral and you can change the accent pieces on a whim and a fancy!

Dorthe said...

Dear Sissie, the table is a :"I want that too " piece- :) how beautiful, and the cabinet you made, looks wonderful.
Hugs,Dorthe
