Finally, Fall is on the way!!!

I am so happy when fall finally gets to Maryland. We have had the hottest and worst summer ever here! Its been a challenge sanding, painting and loading the trailer.

We're working with cooler colors now which is always fun.

We just went to the shop on Thursday and have sold a couple of dressers so it time to paint some more!  I never have a hard time finding vintage stuff, rather it finds me!

I found a new rug for one side of the barn, I hope to one day make some much needed changes in there. We're so busy that there's never enough time to do a "good cleaning" and re decorating in there.

I have been finding some cool industrial things as well. I have a couple of things I'm working on like a great farm table on wheels that I'm putting a zinc top on, work benches and kitchen islands.

Its Been A Busy Summer!

I have been so busy this summer, with the killer heat its been hard to get any work done but I have been keeping the shop full! The antique white set in the back sold in 4 days! It was awesome, built in 1946, 5 matching pieces, solid mahogany.

Here's a better picture, 2 nightstands, chest on chest, dresser and vanity/desk.

Lots of my favorite aqua for the last days of summer. We're getting ready to start with darker fall colors, I can't wait for fall!!!

I'm done with the wrought iron and garden stuff too, tired of wire brushing and spraying with rustoleum!

Front of the shop. Its pretty full too!

New Summer Projects and Some Great Finds!

I can't believe its summer already! I'm getting ready for a garage/tag sale at the Vintage Barn. Our back yard, garage, tents & new carport are overflowing!!! I have too many projects and will never complete most of them. I have faced the fact that I'm a pack rat {of vintage furniture & junk}!! I need to make room for some new stuff. We had a great sale at the shop last month so now it should be smooth sailing right?

I took these at the shop last week. It was so empty after the big sale so I had fun filling it up again!

More chairs for the many tables I have.

Cute small bed for a customer, not sure what color to paint it though!

Love this little concrete statue. I'll have to paint it with some chalk paint, don't like gold!

New shop pictures

I've been so busy I haven't had time to even take pictures of all the great stuff I've been finding at yard sales, estate sales an at work! The weather has been pretty good for painting outside so I am just trying to keep up with all the projects I have accumulated!
