My pretty yellow buffet

So I'm excited on the reveal of my pretty yellow buffet. Trust me it's been long in coming. A wonderful friend of mine was at a garage sale and saw this beauty of a dresser and called me immediately and said "you need to come over here and get this beauty". Needless to say she didn't need to tell me twice , guess who was there in a heartbeat yup this girl!

Mr. & Mrs. Signs

I found a pair of old buffet doors at an estate sale that my husband and I went to in Oak Park, Illinois. There they were buried beneath a pile of broken furniture pieces in the garage.

I picked them up and I could feel how heavy they were.  When I saw them, I immediately envisioned what I wanted to do with them.

Are you a thrifter?

Are you a thrifter? No, for real.... Were you thrifting before it was cool to thrift?

If you drive by a thrift store and are suddenly compelled to go in.

If on your drive to work you make a thrift store pit stop because your route was planned out that way.
If you know $20 dollars can get you a whole bag full of clothes, shoes & accessories.

Are you a thrifter?

Chicago Bears inspired chalkboard

A co-worker asked if I could customize a chalkboard for a friend of her's who happened to be married to one of the players from the Chicago Bears... specifically customized for their kids. 

Looking for inspiration I took to the stores, Hobby Lobby of course. Strolling down the frame aisle, I fell head-over-heels in love with a barnyard wood picture frame.

That barnyard picture frame became my muse for my Bears inspired chalkboard.
