FOR SALE!

Etsy is really a great resource.  Since I opened my store (Vintage Styled Home) in January, I've had the opportunity to sell some of my vintage pieces, but since it's now completely empty and I'm preparing to list a few new items, I figured it would only be fair to offer you all first pick at some of my stash!  If you're interested in any of them items you see, email me for shipping details (unless otherwise noted)!

Up To My Eyeballs . . .

I'm up to  my eyeballs in projects around here, yet I'm taking on another monumental one--I'm headed back to school for Interior Design!  It's something I've been thinking about for awhile, and I recently found a program that's a perfect fit for my needs and desires.  I'd like to think it was meant to be, because I found the program on the last day to apply at about 11 pm and barely submitted my application in time.  I'm excited to be back in school because while I've completed my BA, it was in a subject I was interested in, but not passionate about.  I'm eager to get back in the classroom and share what I'm learning.  I hope you'll continue to follow along--great things are coming, plus I have a fabulous giveaway planned when I reach my 100th follower milestone!  

And as for the list of projects I ned to tackle around my house?? Here's a peak at some of the things that are on my list . . .

 


 Finish these pieces that I now REALLY need for my office. Don't be afraid, they'll both be fabulous!



 Repaint this headboard, and start tackling these BNE's (best nightstands ever) for my in-progress bedroom makeover.

List the many fabulous items I've been finding for sale on Vintage Styled Home, my Etsy shop.

Decide if this is going in my bedroom, or going on the market. Either way, I need to get going and get it finished!

This reading qualifies as a project because I can't put these magazines up (and get organized!) until I've read them.  Yes, some of them are old, but most of the old ones have come from thrift stores and have fabulous features that I'd like to revisit.  I have a huge stack and now it's starting to feel like a chore, so I need to get it done.

Am I the only one with a never ending list of projects???

Before and After (plus a feature!!)

If you missed seeing it before, check out my kitchen renovation featured at Better After.  Matter of fact, even if you've seen it before, go look again because there are tons of great before and and afters all over this blog!  Thanks for the feature, Lindsey!  If you'd like to see more photos of my kitchen "upgrade", click here. 
I have a double feature of "Before and After" today!
 Remember that scary owl lamp I bought a few weeks ago?


Well I'm done!







I love gloss, and this lamp definitely has it!  For those of you who have commented and/or emailed, the lamp will be headed to my Etsy shop, so feel free to make it yours!  I'll be adding new items to the store before the end of the week, and I'll post here as soon as they're up.  Walk, don't run to Vintage Styled Home!
And now for my coffee table . . .   
Here's the before shot (you can find the rest of the story here).


Check the big reveal!









I love the way it turned out, and it's now available for purchase!  If you'd love to take this table home and live in the Metro Atlanta area, please send me an email for more details.
Hope you love them both as much as I do . .  .

I HAVE AN ETSY STORE!!!

Remember that big surprise that I promised was coming last week? Well I'm a bit late (due to technical difficulties) but it's finally here--the grand opening of my Etsy store, Vintage Styled Home! I am super excited!!!!


As you know, I'm constantly scouting Atlanta (and beyond) for pieces full of character and history, and since I find so much fabulous stuff and can't keep it all for myself, it only made sense that I open up a store and make my items available to the wider public. I've found so many beautiful things lately and have been dying to share them with you! Take a look at some things I'm featuring in the store . . .





I have many great pieces in the store and would love it if you'd stop by and take a look. If something strikes your fancy, feel free to grab it before it's gone! I also have additional pieces that will be listed this weekend, so check back often. When you visit the store, please come back and let me know what you think! I value your opinion and hope you'll love this stuff as much as I do!! Thank you for your support!


Also, a big thank you to Miss Mustard Seed who featured my refinished coffee table on her site yesterday. I'm honored!
