Welcome to the first official day of my regular routine! I’ve loved my time off but am really excited to be back painting my paintings and venturing into finishing and starting new furniture projects to take from wreck to ravishing.
This is my current project. I was going to make it extremely artistic but now I’m not sure if I want to anymore! I’m thinking I’ll change my mind and go a completely different direction.
Purchase price: $15.00
This is the lampshade I purchased in Dunedin. I loved it’s colour and lantern-like shape. I bought it the day after I visited the most kick-@$$ Chinese restaurant and was feeling inspired by the restaurants interior design. I’m considering adding some bling to this.
Purchase price $10.00
This was purchased from the dump. It looks to be part of a mid century Scandinavian design set. I love the little curves in the bars and at the front of the seat. It almost seems like sacrilege to take to it the way I want to but alas, I’m still going to do it my way.
Purchase price: $5.00
I’m not a huge fan of cane furniture but there are some pieces that I see potential in. This is one of them. Right now it has a rustic feel to it and is in need of a good spray and wipe. I’m sure it will come up a treat when I’m done.
Purchase price: $2.00
How cute is this stool?! My husband saw it first and told me he knew I’d buy it as soon as I saw it. He knows me well.
The seat is more of an olive green colour. It’s cute enough as it is but does need some TLC to bring it to it’s full potential.
Purchase price: $6.50
I looove how sexy the base of this table is. It’s REAL wood, extremely heavy. This is the project I really want to get started on BUT my rule for myself is I have to finish one thing first before I move on. So I’d better get back to it now 
Purchase price: $20.00

Wow, cool projects!! Can’t wait to see what you do with them! How exciting!! Loving the look of the drawer unit already! And that lampshade will look great with some bling I think! I’m hoping to do a few projects myself and sell them on my UH website…but first things first…getting the site up and running…projects come later!
OOo the big launch is coming soon isn’t it
Just a couple of days away now right? What a mission of a job! Exciting though huh. I’ve been working on a painting I’m doing for a fundraiser today and am seeing the end in sight so can’t wait to finish and get back to my drawers. 
Looking forward to UH’s launch!
Awesome blog post.
Ha I have the EXACT same draw as the top photo. Can’t wait to see what youo do with it.
They’re great drawers Molly! Tonnes of storage in them unlike the new stuff they sell. Hopefully I can figure out exactly what it is I’m going to do with them before the week is out hehehe. I *think* I know but I seem to keep switching between the artsy idea I’m a quarter the way through and something simple but pretty.
These are really great!
