th Prima! I especially love bringing pieces back to life...old and new. Each item is one of a kind and UPcycling is a great way to create something "new" and not have my customers have to pay the "new" price. To me "recycling" is a wonderful way to keep those special pieces enjoyed for many more years to come! Thanks for visiting!

A sweet set of botanical decoupaged frames! I picked these two sweet frames up from a second hand store. Perfect for the little Vintage Botanicals decoupage by Three Yellow Goats! Wonderful little sizes that fit perfectly into little projects as these. I chose from a nice selection of the botanicals and did a reverse decoupage onto the glass plating. I repainted the plastic moulded frames using Dixie Belle's Bonding Boss as a primer then went in with their "Drop Cloth" chalk mineral paint finished with a soft earthy green with hints of white. Treated to clear wax and dark wax for a protective finish. A sweet size, with each frame measures 50cm X 24cm (they appear larger in the first picture). A perfect accompaniment to any room in your home with its summertime flair! $75 for the pair.

A vintage mirror upcycle! I've given this lovely and large mirror a fresh new look using Redesign with Prima's Alice in Wonderland fiber decoupage paper "Dreamlike Trails". The wood frame is livened up from its dull brown with fresh coats of Fusion's Coal Black mineral paint mixed with Mint by Michelle's "Riverbank Green". A sweet little bowtie mould at the top finishes it off! Treated to clear coat for protection with a little gold gilding wax along the edges. Two hangers on the back. Measures 38" tall by 23" across.

Oh boy! If you saw what this table looked like before! Not a fancy or expensive table by any means but I loved the curvy legs, sweet little drawers... and did she ever shine up!! A good cleaning and a couple coats Coal black was a good place to begin! I then added in one of the new decoupage papers from Michelle's Three Yellow Goats "Ecalyptus and Ember"...so pretty!! I took WoodUBend's #1418 mould and separated it then curved the portion I wanted to use right around the legs. One of Prima's moulds was used to add a little more beauty to the sides. Treated to Redesign with Prima's "Sparks" Chest of Gold on the edge and scrolls for a beautiful finish! Topped off with new handles also repainted using Chest of Gold with a final finish of Dixie Belle's clear coat and Fusion's Ultra Guard poly on top.
A beautiful addition to pretty up any room in your home!

Measures 31 1/2 " long X 19" wide X 30" tall.

Having some fun finishing up a vintage, orphaned dresser mirror . How cute is this follow?!!! Finished up with a mix of black and cast iron mineral paint, then dark wax. The mirror is decoupaged with one of Prima's fiber paper from the "Bunny Meadows Farm" collection with an additional raised "Raining in Paris" stencil by Posh Chalk. A little blending of colors, gold gilding wax and voila! A sweet piece to prop up anywhere in your home!

Restyled, Vintage Metal Tool Box/Garden Box!~Roses & Florals!
Another vintage metal toolbox makeover! This one is finished using Fusion's new chalk mineral paint line in Birch with a hint of yellow mixed in. Finished in gorgeous floral transfers and script! Treated to Dixie Belle's clear coat in flat. The inside is painted in the same and also comes with a removable tray, which I've cleaned but not repainted, being just moulded plastic and likely going to hold an assortment of tools and things, I didn't bother. A pretty box to hold personal tools and whatnot!
Measures 19" X 6" wide and 6.5" in height.
