What am I?

In actuality, this is a vintage plant stand.

Now it has a multitude of uses, from the kitchen and storing dishes to the bedroom holding bags, sweaters, or shoes (unless you are like Sweethomewhever and need a room for shoes), or back to the garden holding flowers as it was originally intended. This piece is so "anthropologie", it would be perfect in their store. Available at Troy Antiques for $38

Spoons and forks bent for hooks. . .

And a potting table is born!

Thanks to Bobby at Cottage and Cabin for his creative genius. Potting table available at Troy Antiques.

Indecision. . .

Sometimes it's just difficult to decide on a paint color. . . And then there are times a customer wants to match drapes. . . Case in point-a customer asked me to paint her cabinet to match the stripe drapes, therefore, the tri-colored cabinet. The white cabinet was first dry-brushed in blue (Tiffany Box blue) then dry-brushed in mustard. Delivered today, the cabinet is now back at home.
