secretary desk

............SOLD.............

I am asking $120 for this dreamy little antique secretary desk!! Loving the mustard gold right now!

(see details at bottom of the post)

If you love it and have to have it call me at 480-298-0715 or email me at bennettjade@gmail.com

This is a beautiful little secretary desk with a glass hutch on top. It opens to a little desk with two small droors on either side. The hutch has an adjustable shelf for fun accesorries. I used beautiful missed matched knobs, two crystal ones on the top and a black and cream ceramic one on the big droor. This piece is hand painted a mustard gold and then aged with an antique tabacco colored glaze. Lightly distressed and topped with polyurethane.

It measures 26 1/2" tall to the desk height, 18"deep at the desk, 8 1/2" deep on the hutch, the hutch is 22" tall and the entire piece is 54" tall from floor to top.

The secret to our enduring brand lies in delivering an experience rather than just a collection of products and services.

fun find friday: busy bee

Before and After

I figured since I was a completely irresponsible blogger today and swam with a good friend of mine who was in town instead of snap some pics of my next fun find(next week I will show you...it is a good one) I could do a fun before and after of a custom dresser I just did for a client!

Hope you enjoy!

i·kat/ˈēkät/

Noun: Fabric made using an Indonesian decorative technique in which warp or weft threads, or both, are tie-dyed before weaving. 

My defenition: yummy yummy!

This fabric looks good with everything! It works with florals, plads, stipes, solids....you name it and it looks good with Ikat. It is a great way to add some deapth and visual interest to the style you already have going on in your home!

This little beauty was actually a discoverd by my friend Jessica. She wanted it for her house and when she got it home it didn't work!! (yay for me...sorry Jess) She found it at DI for 20 BUCKS! I fell in love the moment I saw it....didn't you?

I have to confess though, that the first time I heard of Ikat was on my all time favorite show Sarah's Summer House. She used it on pillows in two of her rooms and I couldn't believe I had lived this long with out knowing about it!

 Sarah's guest room

                          This little beauty is by all means the exact defenition of Ikat                       

uuuugggghhhhh....black and white will always make my jaw drop!

 Is Ikat the new damask??????

I think it might be for me....what do you think?

rustic dresser

                          ..........................................SOLD..........................................                    

So I finally did it....I made a boy-ish piece of furniture! I love this piece, from the shuttered door to the highly distressed wood finish. It would (as I hinted earlier) be perfect for you little boys room or it would add a fun rustic touch to any of the more feminine rooms in your house! Inside the shutter door is a two tiered shelf for lots of storage and also has 4 deep and spacious droors. It is very sturdy and well made.  It measures 19"deep, 50"wide and 32"tall. I am asking $195.00. If you are interested in this piece call me

 480-298-0715 or e-mail me at bennettjade@gmail.com. Thanks

vintage door/chalk board

.....SOLD....

So here is a darling door that I have re-finished in this fun striped pattern! The insets are painted with chalk board paint and the rest is striped with a cream and green and then glazed with a black glaze. I added the super beautiful old door knob and then topped it all with polyurethane! This would make a great and completely unexpected addition to any home decor! It is 18"wide by 79"tall and I am asking $85  for it! If you love it and want it call me at 480-298-0715 or email me at bennettjade@gmail.com

So a few weeks ago I was picking up a dresser I bought to refinish...and this little dream was just leaning up against the wall!! Well after 3 days of stalking my local goodwill (apparently they can't just let me have it? it has to go thrught the whole stocking process, I even offered the guys $20 bucks to turn around while I stole it...his loss!) I now own it and have big plans for it to rest on a buffet in my kitchen! We are moving in August so I will show you how it looks when I get it in there.
