I'm Just a Gold Digger!

No, I'm not that kind of gold digger!

But I am sure that the checkout people at the thrift shops and antique malls that I frequent think I must be!  Just look at the latest loot that I brought home!

 Wow, that's alot of gold!  I was super excited to discover all of these solid wood frames the other day.  I actually liked them in their golden state, but I just had to give them a makeover (of course!).

I was also thrilled to find two matching vintage syroco wall pockets, at two separate thrift shops!  Score!  I've not yet painted the wall pockets, but I'll be sure to show you the finished product.  Anyway, I'm not painting them my usual Heirloom White (shock, gasp!), but a color that is totally new for me!!! (I  know, you will be on the edges of your seats just waiting for the big reveal, right?!)

 Ok, so here are my transformed frames and mirror, in all their shabbilisciousness!

 The details of these frames are just amazing, and I think their new paint job and distressing really highlight all of the wonderful details.  They are even prettier in person, as the photos just don't do them justice.

 I've added this collection to my Etsy shop, if you want to take a peek.  Pottery Barn style without the PB price tag!!!!!

 The frame below is one of my favorites.  Actually there are two in the collection just like this.  They were made in Mexico, and feature heavily carved details, and even faux "worm holes"!  I've been having so much fun creating frame and wall decor collections.  This is actually the second one that I've put together for my shop this week!

I've got a bit of exciting news!  I finally have a booth at a local antique mall, that I'd been trying to get into for awhile!  Yippee!  This is my first time having a booth, and I went in today to set up (hubby helped out with the heavy lifting!).  The mall had a long waiting list of people who wanted a spot, and the owners liked me and my work, so they invited me to come aboard!  I'm beyond thrilled!  I'll go early next week to add more treasures, and take some pictures of my space to share with you all!

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
