Before & After.




AFTER

BEFORE


What an incredible transformation.  From one of the ugliest night stands I've ever seen to one of the cutest toy kitchen's ever.  Makes me want to wave a magic wand into every single thrift store and turn all the ugly old wood furniture into darling, vintage inspired things for children.  I love the fabric selection for the little curtain and I love the "S" print.  This before & after is a total reminder that people call fresh white paint, "fresh", for a good reason; white paint just freshens up anything.  Anything. These pictures, with more explanation on what went down, is on the blog, http://www.vintagesongbird.blogspot.com/.  How I ended up there while trying to locate pictures of stylish tuxedo pants for a little girl, I couldn't tell you, but I'm so glad I did.  The blog is fun to click on -- probably a little too crafty for someone as glue challenged as myself, but inspiring nonetheless.

The transformation is amazing AND it screams "opportunity"! to collect odd, ugly pieces at thrift stores and turn them into kids furniture, toys, end tables, etc. Business on the side for your creative self? with world's most creative decorator JT as a consultant????????
