store photos and some furniture makeovers...

Well it's been 10 months since opening Shabby French & Vintage and it's been quite an experience. I'm still in the process of learning. Learning about sales and marketing, learning about my customers, learning to take each day as it comes. Does one ever really stop learning? I don't think so. Always trying to improve and try different things. One thing I know for sure ... I have to stay true to myself and my style.

I purchased these French Provincial wall hangings which are backed in a French linen.. they are 2die4!

I've also been doing up a few pieces of furniture...

The above side table was a reddish timber so I painted it ASCP Louise Blue and then added gold highlights. 

I absolutely love the detail on this half circle console table painted in Old White.

This was just a pine cabinet painted in bright pink and purple.. a lot more country now.

What a difference a bit of paint can make. I'm working on 2 dressing table at the moment.. one will be shabby white and the other not quite sure yet.

So till next time..

take care, Maryann xx
