Upcycled


                        Here are some of the Upcycling projects
                        I will be working on over the next few weeks.
Vintage Dressing Table, comes with a beautiful large vintage mirror. The dressing table itself is in need of a complete make over as there are a few marks and scratches that are to be expected with a Piece of furniture that has been  used over many years, small imperfections - but that's why we love them.
 

   Upcycling furniture gives you an
   alternative to the mundane produced
   pieces while adding a special touch
   to your home.

   Elegant, Rustic, Shabbychic haven't 
   decided yet!  keep it neutral or go for
   the more elaborate design? 

Living room furniture Antique chairs

 I'm all for embracing the new
but isn't great that we can give some
older pieces of furniture a new lease
of life!
 I would like to share a brief 
 chair history with you. 
 I found this charming little sketch 
 book circa: 1937.

 

  The chairs below are from the Victorian
  and Regency era and are all designs
  we can still use today I know I do.
  The Windsor chairs are one of the most 
  Robust and typically victorian with the 
  bulbous turned legs and double-cross
  stretcher stamp.
  The Windsor chairs were generally used
in the kitchens and often painted in dark green or black!
Very purposeful.
  The simple fan back Windsor usually
  had flat seats and were usually made
   with elm or beech wood, these design
  variants have been with us ever since.

Quote of the week:

Poem: 
 
"To  see a world in a grain of 
 sand  And heaven in a wild  flower,
 Hold infinity in the palm of your
  hand and eternity in an hour"
