Gorgeous Vintage Floral Easel

Do you  love cream, white, and all shades in between?  Well, it's no secret that I do! Today I wanted to share with you one of my latest discoveries, that I am super excited about!

 I was thrilled to discover this vintage floral and faux bamboo Syroco easel the other day.  But, it didn't look this pretty when I found it at a garage sale!  Oh, no!  I'll show you a before shot a bit later.

 First off, I am always on the prowl for Syroco anything, and had never come across anything like this in all of my treasure hunting.  I nearly jumped up and down with excitement when I found it!  Of course, I had to give it a much needed makeover with the addition of my favorite shade of creamy white paint!  Just look at all of the gorgeous details!  Love!

 I think it's almost too pretty to cover up!  The great thing about this piece, which I didn't realize til I got her home, was that she can be also used as a wall shelf! 

 Also while out thrifting, I found this beautiful pink, oh so shabby chic picture frame.  Isn't it romantic?  The best part was, I didn't have to do a thing to it!  It was already perfectly distressed, so all I did was add a sheet of my vintage sheet music to it.

 This beautiful red rose came from our garden, and I thought it looked so pretty as part of my vignette.  I've placed it in one of my favorite little green vases.  If you look closely, you will see that there is a beautiful and dainty etched design on the vase.  I've had this since I was a little girl, when I received a bouquet in it, while I was recuperating in the hospital after having my tonsils removed (I guess that means the vase could be considered "vintage", yikes!).

 I think it looks lovely on the fleur de lis tray that I made, too!

 Ok, here is the easel "before".  So much better with the addition of creamy, dreamy white paint, don't you think?

 And here is one last look at my little romantic vignette!

Have a great day!  I'm linking up with Kathleen over at Faded Charm for White Wednesday.  Be sure to pay a visit!
