"My snow white dining table"






I have this table for i think its been 6 months.. its just i was lazy to do it i need some inspiration or some motivation..finally i started to read some more blogs of wonderful creative people in the world and they cheer me up so today Im going to work on it.. I finished the painting and set it up outside in my back porch and do some little arrangement as I've been inspired.. stay up late last night reading and checking out the blogs :) and it really helps...Thank u for motivating me to finish my table :)
here's the pics.. I'm still trying to figure out how to upload like they do..:)there site so.. pretty:)...

I have 4 chairs for these table but I am so so wrong when i mess with it they are very sturdy so i only do the 2 chairs..and re upholstered them with burlap ..

Antique Wardrobe closet






I bought This at a garage sale close to my office during our lunch break me and Jodie went to go for a ride and brows the garage sales ,and I found wardrobe when i first saw it i really want it but Jodie said that i can't fix it ..it looks like there's no more life left :) .
But my mind is wondering ,what can i do to it.. so i end up buying it.. i bought 3 pieces of antique "junk looking furniture" and the next day took it home.. and here some pics. of it..

It's Been A while




Its Been a while since i visit and check my blog,I was so busy doing stuff and now just think of it..well,I got some good new and some bad news...but the best thing is if tough times comes on our way we have somebody that always with us no matter what.That would be our Lord , Family and ofcourse my loving Hubby..sometimes i get mad but i guess it' s just a part of it. The Bad news is we had to closed our office and after working for almost a year and half surely I missed dressing up and going to work everyday.But they say when the door close another door will be open so..we kinda hang on to that and just pray, I'm back to being home all the time and my baby back to work finally after 11 months of vacation lol :) .That's y Im kind of busy and not even visiting here..But the good news is I have full time now to do my furniture thing,I have a lot of stuff made and refinish I will attached some new photo's ,which i really love doing it. I wish I will have a store one day:)

Yard Sale Fanatic



Hi, I've been gone for a long time from this page i cant go back and check it everyday co'z i forgot my password and was just busy with different kind of stuff.
To start with, I am still working in my office but there's another thing that makes me busy. There is an antique shop close to my office where i can go to .during my lunch break. me and my office friend call it a JUNK store.It is a cute and nice store to walk they have booth's in there different stuff.. i love the place and people or the owner are friendly too.. Guess what , I never been to a yard sale before co'z we don"t have that in my country but my friend Jodie she introduce me to the word "yard sale" I love it! first yard sale was close to our office we went there during lunch break
and i bought this glass table for $10 and i am so happy :)
That's how I started to love yard sale stuff:)

And getting back to what keeps me more busy, I visit the antique shop 2 or 3 times a week and guess what???? now i have my own booth :) surprising ! before my birthday i had a wish.. and I want to have a small business where i can make a little money. I save up my first month rent so i can start my own booth.I was sleepless for a week thinking where am i gonna get my stuff to put it in my booth???
and there u go .. i went search for yard sale in my county and go.. problem is i don't drive so i have somebody that drive for me to go to the yard sale .and so far my booth is doing great . I've there for 5 months now .I will post some pics. later with my booth . where i decorate it and make it pretty.. I'm loving it:)
This is how my booth look like 3 months ago.I sold almost everything and make a little money plus i enjoyed it. I have a lot of improvement so far , now i do refinished antiques furniture i am doing it my self.sometimes im doing it right sometime i messed it up:) but I'm just learning..I will have a folder of the furniture i sold and furniture's that i refinished soon.
I guess that's all for now.. I'm sure i will be back tomorrow.:)have a great day everyone.
