Quaint Country meets Vintage Chic

This oh so wholesome pair of besides were lost in a haze of the federation and cream colour schemes of the 90's. They had beautiful curves in all the right places and needed nothing but a freshen up and a splash of vintage colour. Yes, this is the same paper I used on an earlier work 'Adel and Evie'. The white against the mustard works so well to add instant pop and change a very farm house pair into very now vintage chic duo.

Monochromatic Retro Drawers with John Rombola

This sorry excuse for a child's set of drawers was screaming out for a makeover and I knew just the paper to do it! Recently rediscovered by a new generation of art and design lovers, John Rombola's illustration's are described as rambunctious and spirited. His eccentric eclectic style create fun and interest. Depicted here are 'Apple' 'Pinapple and other 'Miss fruit' queens in their finery. Absolutely adorable and for the young or young at heart.

Oh so sweet nest of tables!

This sweet trio were dull and drab in their origional dark stain. I saw instant potential in their delicate turned legs and with a lick of paint in fresh summer sorbet colours they are ready to use in your bedroom, living or pool house.
