This week we redid our studio space, upstairs. We found a small old dresser at a thrift store in Michigan last time we were there.  We used that for one side of the desk.  For the other side, we used some old metal legs we found. They are the the perfect color of rust.  A green patina look, that only comes with age.  Stripping the dresser down from it’s original white color turned out to be a lot harder than we imagined.  It was a great learning experience.  The light color wood that turned up after the paint was stripped away, we covered up with a darker stain.  Dan and I worked really hard on making it perfect.  I love the way it turned out.

We also added lots of new items to the shop.  Head over and check it out. Especially if you love dollhouse furniture.

While Stevie was out of town at Camp Mighty, I decided to put the final touches on our window display for our first 2nd Friday appearance. I was able to get my hands on some old growth wood from a local shop, Rebuilding Exchange, and built a custom barn door.
