Some Super cool wall hangings that were made from Vintage sconces that I spray-painted in a glossy bright red. I fastened them to some cabinet doors that I got from my friend Clemente over at Texas Crown & Millwork.. I love to get his Trash!  Then did all the hand-painted details in Lipstick colors of Red & Pink.
The striped hanging at the top was also a cabinet door from him that I painted with chalkboard paint & added the hooks & crystal knobs for a neat message board that kids can hang towels on or can hang your accessories.

Color-Matched to the Victoria's Secret Gift Box.
Gotta LOVE that!! xoxo

The original small metal pulls were dull & boring with no character.  I found these vintage-look knobs which enhance the small drawers perfectly.  I gently sanded around all the curved details to highlight the beauty of all the wonderful scroll work.


I wanted to keep the inside drawers of the piece its original aged patina.  I thoroughly cleaned them & sealed in its age which was a nice finishing touch to give them a subtle shine and clean feel.
When I picked up this desk it had some stuff rattling around in the drawers.  I opened the bottom drawer to find someones personal items.. boxes of old wax matches from ITALY, and old typewriter eraser with brush, old stamps, keys, several old rulers & old, old negatives of christmas pictures with tree & children!

With a nice Sable Brush I trimmed the edges in an Old White & gently sanded to let the blue come through. 
I rubbed in a wonderful French Wax all over the piece which richened the pale dusty blue & gave the paint more dimension along with protecting the Vintage Finish.



Imagine all the old-fashioned Letter writing that went on at this desk!

Don't let this cute little table fool you with it being to dang pretty & dainty because it is SOLID.. HEAVY!!
It's gotta be made of solid Maple. They knew how to make things back them and didn't skimp on quality.

A soft French Pink coats the entire piece with harlequin print painted on each side & front in an old-cream.

A wonder Vintage-Look knob was added. Again, using the same hazey-aged ones I discovered.
When I found this piece it had no hardware so this look is the perfect addition.  Drawer insides are painted a soft cream with a pretty stenciled chandelier.

A Professional French-Wax was hand-rubbed into the entire piece to further give it a beautiful aged-patina & to protect the paint finish.

I didn't know how I was going to make-over this piece until I found beautiful Vintage-Looking Paper at the local hobby store. It has a wonderful aged appearance with browned distressed edges along with fading & yellowing that comes with age.  I loved the pretty floral scroll design of the paper as well.

Three separate pieces across each drawer front added much character & the illusion of more little drawers.  I carefully glued each in place and pressed out any bubbling.  After completely dry I added a layer of varnish to protect the paper and seal down the edges.

This beauty was completely cleaned up & needed paint inside & out for a thorough makeover. Drawers were painted on all sides including underneath & back.
The "Love" stenciling was appropriate on the inside drawers of this piece because it needed alot of it for it's restoration. 

The soft pink paint was gently distressed & sealed with a tinted French Wax to collect in the crackles to further highlight it's age and protect its wonderful French Finish.

6 wonderful knobs adorn this Vintage beauty. 
They have a Hazey-Aged Glass look & are a perfect addition since it did not come with any hardware at all!
