Finders Keepers...
Another fantastic weekend of estate sale shopping with my partner in crime Marla! After waiting close to an hour in the rain we made our way into the sale and found some FAB finds...
First off this beautiful hand painted asian screen which I hung in my stairway.
Got this for $65.00!!!
Pair of yellow chinoiserie vases for $35!!!
Perfect pop of yellow to tie in my Great Grandmother's (Nonnie's) leather chairs!
And now the DEAL of the weekend, got this settee for $100, major staining so needs to re-upholstered but who cares!!!
Sad the fabric can not be saved because I really love it but the frame is AMAZING!!!
Thinking it would look perfect in this striped fabric I spied on Designer's Attic this morning...

Makeover Magic...
My friend Marla and author of Keeping Up With Stella waned to perk up her built-in's in her living room. When Marla first moved in she just threw some photos and knick knacks in them and did not have time to arrange them the way she wanted to. So together we set out to "Zhush" (aka to primp or fluff) them up!
Not bad but too many mismatched pictures and the groupings did not work well together.
Here are some befores...

Bookcase 2

The After's...

In order to make them look super FAB, Marla switched out her photos to black and white, bought some new frames, took a trip to HomeGoods, shopped Etsy and hunted through house sales!
She also found an amazing gold damask wallpaper from Graham and Brown, which she and her Dad hung on the back of the bookshelves!

Good job Marla, they look AMAZING!!!
