Paris Chic

Tons of pictures coming up. I purchased this board from a Antique dealer. I loved the size and handle. I painted it with 3 coats of white pain, and then I found these appliques. I thought they would go hand in hand. I fell in love with this stencil and there you have it - a perfect Shabby Chic Parisian sign.
I found these cute appliques at Goodwill, and I thought "These are just what I am looking for!"
Love the black and white theme

Buttons I added to the sign.
A close up of the button.


My dog Payton. He gets tired of watching me work in my den.
My Misty girl, always at my side. I just love her.

This is a vintage vanity. It was in rough shape with lipstick all over it. It really took a beating. Someone told me it could be from the 30's. Below is the new coat of paint. It's heading to Countryside Antiques this weekend.



This is a vintage dresser I picked up to go into Countryside also. Quite Shabby Chic. I don't think it will be there long.
A gentleman was throwing out this twin bed. Do you know how many customers come into Ally's Attic looking for twin beds? It will get a new look for some young girl or boy.
This is a pine end table that I found at a sale. It also took alot of abuse. Dings and holes and deep scratches. A little bit of putty and love and it is just like new. Pictures to follow in next blog.

I found this club chair at Countryside Antiques. It was calling my name! It already has a new coat of paint and a new cushion. Maybe some burlap to boot.
A brown vintage tricycle. All metal. Not very comfortable to ride but sure cute to look at. It is also headed to Countryside.
Two columns I will use as displays at my new booth. These are truly shabby.

As I was scavenging in a corner of cute little signs I found this plain white one. I painted it cream and added the finial.
This tile won't last long.
Love the color of this pillow
Sticking with my Parisian theme, I amped it up a bit.
LOVE IT!!!!!!!
