~sO sHaBbY DeLiCiOuS!~ Pink rose Chintz!

Sunday, March 7, 2010

Oh My!  It is so hard to believe that we are only 9 weeks away from the Brimfield Antique Show!  Winter has seemed so long and dark, but the Spring season will soon be upon us and time will start to fly by again!  We have been hard at work, filling orders for custom pieces of furniture and also digging up new ideas to keep us excited for the season to come.  We are excited to announce that we have started to offer a line of vintage, newly upholstered furniture.  This will be a new venture for us, we hope that our customers will be as excited as we are!  Here are a couple of new offerings we have currently and will be adding more as time goes on.  It has been so much fun finding pieces that we think our customers will love!
Such pretty pink rose chintz, pink check and green toile!
We have painted the wood a creamy white and lightly distressed it...
Roses and Stripes in pink and green with a touch of pink chenille...how charming!
Notice the pretty French cane sides, truly one-of-a-kind!

Drop in and take a peek!

A Vintage Beauty, before and after!

Sunday, October 18, 2009

We have had many questions as to whether our furniture is new or vintage, many customers that visit us at the Brimfield antique show walk into our booth and insist that our furniture is in too good shape to be vintage!  We assure them that it is, it's the hours of labor and care that we put into each piece that makes it so beautiful when it is finished.  We are proud to provide our customers with vintage furniture that will be usable for years to come.  A before and after picture may help to visualize the transformation! 

Many of the pieces we refinish have had hard lives, we can often be found "talking" to each piece, letting it know that we are going to make it beautiful once again for it's next life!  We carefully repair each piece, making it sound and ready to go for the next few decades!  It is a good feeling knowing that we are "rescuing" a piece that may have ended up tossed in some dark cellar or basement, never again finding it's rightful place among cherished loved pieces.  After about 15 hours of labor, our before bed ends up looking like this:

If you choose a piece of furniture from us, you can be assured that it has been hand painted and repaired to perfection, fit for your Romantic Home, or for your little Princess!

Brimfield Antique Show! What a fun time!

Monday, October 5, 2009


Ah! what fun we had!  The show was Sept 8-13.  As usual, we set our booth up at Brimfield Mass Antique show hoping that the week would bring us good weather and lots of great customers.  The show did not disappoint us except for one day of terrible weather!  You certainly know you have serious customers when they come trudging out in rain and cold!  They found us with down jackets on, wrapped up in blankets so we could stay warm!  Even though the temperature was around 60 degrees, sitting outside chills you to the bone. Burrrrr!  We were so happy to see so many familiar faces, and really, really happy when past customers would stop by to tell us how much they love their furniture.  Knowing that all our hard work is appreciated so much makes our hard work so worth while.  We can always tell how successful we have been at meeting new customers when our lollipop bowl empties out, it is a good gauge of how many people pass through to shop!  We will be getting ready for our show schedule next year, our next show will be in May.  It seems
so far away, but it does come fast amongst the daily orders and customer requests! 
The show dates for 2010 are: May 11-16 • July 13-18 • Sept 7-12 .  Check out the Brimfiled Exhange web site to plan your spring trip to visit us!
