Window shopping! Shine up them shoes, and take a walk downtown!
(For exercise only of course) and while you're down there, turn your head for some fancy new windows!
New Year, and FINALLY new window display. Our long glassy stretch along Charlotte Street was looking how we've been feeling during this first half of January... Empty and haggard from the holidays-
We're brushing it all away, and new displays have arrived!
All bright freshly painted furniture, vintage finds, and local maker pieces 🖤

You can now see each one of these items in our front window, each with their own QR code to order. They're also up online

Best of, and there's a lot of 'best' this year- Despite what this year has brought, we're still here, strong, with an amazing team we love so much, and amazing local support.
We can't do this without you, we'll all get through this together. I know it's almost eye rolling to hear that at this point, but wholly, it's been a friggen year for us... for all businesses, for families, for everyone-

2021 is going to be a whole new year, but only of we all decide it's going to be.
Let's make it amazing 🖤

Those gold handles 💛
This afternoon threw some pretty dull lighting my way for photos, yet this piece still shines~
It went to its forever home tonight after spending the holidays on our front window. I missed taking photos of the cute black and white polkadot drawer liners on the inside, guess we'll just have to do another one 🖤

Midnight Blue by @fusionmineralpaint is my favorit

Midnight Blue by @fusionmineralpaint is my favorite timeless blue. It's moody, deep, and pairs with brass flawlessly.

This pair of side tables are up on the website and available. Brass footers, sliding drawers for storage, and shiny original pulls make this set just... oh..so...~
And check out that stunning tapestry by @wildhoneyboho ! (Swipe to see full piece) With is gorgeous textures, it's a must have piece to add textiles to your space 🖤

New Pieces have made their way onto the website, and tomorrow we'll be doing some LIVE videos!
I've never really done them before as I'm better face to face with people, not staring down a camera, but times are a changing!
I'm going to go through some of our 'new' vintage hauls I've been pulling up from downstairs! Everything I've been holding onto, pieces I love oh so much, things I found over the years that I said I would never sell... Haha! We all know how that goes for me-
So it's all coming upstairs! Which is music to our team, as I know they are tired of hauling it all down there! 😅
Did you know that under our store is 2500 SQF of dry open storage space???
Well... Not so much space as stored vintage everything!
And when I say stored, I definitely mean boxes and STACKS of hoarded goodness!
So yeah, this week the store is going to be a MESS and I'm going to be going through it ALL online~

The full set of vintage Vilas chairs are up on the website with additional photos. 🖤

Happy Holidays everyone❄️ We're here for one

Happy Holidays everyone❄️
We're here for one more day today from 10-2pm~
Snag some last minute gifts from some amazing makers and artists!

As previously posted the last week via Insta stories, our plans were* to be closed until January 4th to give our team some much needed and deserved time off, while still offering online orders with curbside pickup and delivery.
With news of the 28 day shutdown, we're fully prepared and stocked up to continue with our plans.
We're still here for paint + supplies, so your half finished projects can be completed! We've got you covered 💕

We'll be pretty active on stories, plus adding new YouTube videos. Sharing new DIY kits, which we have plenty of in-store right now, and how to videos to go with them!

Classic Midnight Blue + Cappuccino SFO for the win

Classic Midnight Blue + Cappuccino SFO for the win on this console piece. 🖤
We have A LOT of new pieces, and products this week!
Including this piece- Although it sold within minutes of hitting the floor, it was still a fun piece to finish. Sad, tired wood revived, and vintage legs added to lift this lady up. Modern brass for a bit of shine~

We're all hands on deck finishing all custom pieces before the holidays, stocking shelves, and getting some pretty cool products + DIY kits sorted for this week!

Friday night feels + films with this vintage bookcase refinished with Coal Black 🖤
Our team has been working hard each day to put new pieces on the floor and finish everyone's custom pieces before the holidays.
This has been no easy task, and it's most satisfying when a piece comes together so nicely~
Saturday our doors open 11-4pm with a new Fusion Mineral Paint restock, and a WHOLE lotta new vintage goodness 🌿
