Spools and Spindles

 Whenever we go tour unfinished stash in the stalls of the horse barn, we see a sea of chairs. 

 They're just so darn cute and utilitarian and easy to move and we love to come up with different colors for them. The above one is a very nice light blue. Let us know if you want a cute blue chair.

 If you're feeling a bit bolder with your color these days, try this coral duo. Can't you just see these brightening up a corner of a room in your house on these dark winter days to come? Cheer up with coral!

 Or go totally curvy with this charming little table and chair. Love those curves on the table and the spindly legs on the chair. Nice details.


 Krista finished off the chair with a vintage type fabric. These would look so cute in a little girl's room!

 For a boy's room, we have this retro little number. Finished in a light blue with a teal accent background. I love the handle that came with it. 

But what makes this piece special is this antique map. I found this large map book from the 20's at a yard sale years ago and am now using for crafts and furniture. If this doesn't sell, I'm keeping' it! One of my fave pieces.

 This is a most unusual piece. When we bought it we thought it was a bedside table. But when looking at it, it is asymmetrical at the top. It's really the right hand part of a 3-piece vanity. We don't have the middle or the left pieces, but it can stand alone. Just use as a side table and it's good to go. Love the spool legs. 

 See?! Isn't it great?!

This was such a blah end table. We jazzed it up with a two-tone in a grayish blue base with a silvery grey draw. We've heard so much about Oil Rubbed Bronze or ORB if you're in the know, that we had to use it on the handles. 

Jury is out, and we like it! It's a black/brown/grey and is perfect for this Colonial type number. This is what we've actually completed, but there's plenty more that is real close...just a screw here or a touch up there, so stay tuned.
