It did not take me very long before I had a vision about what I wanted done with them.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My first thought was to take them to a professional. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Dad knew that I would want them painted white (he lives in the same house - you can't miss it) He decided right away that he might tackle the project himself. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
OK Dad, have a go.</div>

He started by taking apart the upholstery, every deeply embedded staple, one at a time. It must have taken him 2 months. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then it was time to paint. By now he could take them outside as the weather had improved. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Funny thing, at the same time we had begun our project, my friend <a href="http://4theloveofwood.blogspot.ca/2013/06/how-to-upholster-open-chair-back-step-i.html" target="_blank">Kristy</a> had a tutorial on her blog. It sure helped us out even though we did not follow all the directions exactly.</div>

First of all, Dad used spray paint, Heirloom White. I think that some day I will send him to a class so he can learn to use Chalk paint. I think he would love it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Next, he covered them with a canvas drop cloth. The staple gun would not go into the hard wood, so he used carpet tacks and nailed one about every half inch or so. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Finally, using a glue gun, he glued the trim into place. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now I am sure I have left out some steps, and definitely not been able to explain how hard he worked on these. They may not be perfect, but my Dad made them, and for that I am extremely blessed.</div>

I had a little idea to make a storage box from an old sewing machine drawer. I bought one early in the summer, and I wanted to paint it in Chalk paint. I have a small sample size, but not the special brushes and wax. So I asked a very talented and kind friend if she would have the time to help me out. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Kristy from <a href="http://4theloveofwood.blogspot.ca/" target="_blank">4TheLoveofWood</a> does fabulous work. She is incredibly talented.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The drawer came back (hand delivered by George) just as I had imagined it.</div>

This is what it looks like painted. Beautiful. I glued on crystal drawer pulls for little feet. Actually, that is the only part that I did on 'my' project.</div>

I gave it to my Dad so he would have a place for his mail. He keeps it on top of his dresser in the living room. It keeps things looking a little organized.</div>

These are the last of my summer photos from outside. I heard the local farmer's market has baby white pumpkins ready. I am looking forward to decorating for fall, though not the typical rain that we always get.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
This candle stand was the last purchase I made with my Christmas gift money. Yes, that's right, I said Christmas. I savour every dollar I get and make it stretch as long as I can. The candle is an LED candle from Pier 1. It has a timer and get this, it is remote controlled. Ha Ha. I love it. Cant' get any easier than that. Made out of wax, they look so real, and are safe to burn. I love that the most.</div>

Two of the decorative dangles I bought on Etsy. They are made from vintage silver cutlery and crystals. I love re-invented vintage things.</div>

I have added a twin ruffled bed skirt to the loveseat, that way I can store a few things under there and no one notices. Except Dad's cat.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The canopy over the loveseat I bought at the Deja Vu Vintage Fair. I have no idea what it is supposed to be, but I liked it floating over the seat. It is built like an umbrella, it folds up and closes when not in use. It is made from lace but is large and rectangular. Any ideas out there?</div>

My daughter decided to recycle a burlap bag one day. She hunted through my thrift store fabrics, lace, and doilies. She hand stitched them to the bag one layer at a time until she ended up with a really nice project. So creative. All this loveliness was made from recycled items.</div>

This is what the bag looked like before. It was the bag she received when she purchased some items from an aromatherapy shop. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I haven't decided what to do with my new bag. But for now it sits in my bedroom so I can admire the love and care she put into it. That suites me just fine.</div>

One thing my BFF's love to do is have tea parties. This one was in honour of our 10th Anniversary of being a group. We have so many great memories of things we have done over the years. It was wonderful to sit on the patio and reminisce about them.</div>

My dear friends held a birthday party for me last month. Many of them gifted me with $$$$ which I saved for the Deja Vu Vintage Market. The market was fabulous. I wanted to share some of my goodies. There are still a few more, but I will wait until they are in their new places before I take the photo.</div>

The cookie jar is not new, neither is the hand painted picture. I bought the picture last winter at my friend's craft sale. I just haven't found the right spot for it yet. I almost gave it away this summer. I was hoping that someday when we can replace our kitchen cabinets that it will find a permanent place to be hung.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So, I am thinking that the next post I will start to have some Christmas to show you. I went to my first Christmas craft fair this season. Also, alot of the stores have tempting decor out.</div>

Last White Wednesday I showed you how I decorated the right side of the armoir bookcases. Today I will add the left side.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The pillow on the side chair was from <a href="http://raggygirlvintage.blogspot.ca/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #ea9999;">Tracey</span></a>. Tracey has an <a href="http://raggygirlvintage.blogspot.ca/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #ea9999;">Etsy shop</span></a> as well as tables set up at several Vintage Fairs. We are always bumping into each other.<br />

Today I thought I would share with you how I decorated my new bookcases that Dad made for me. I figured I had better do that now because after September 1st I want to start decorating for fall.</div>

This is all on the right side of the armoir.</div>

First photo above is some of my recent finds at one of the many Vintage Markets that I was able to attend this past year. I have the vintage flash card and a wooden letter P. Get it?</div>

I loved this creamer that I found for a song (actually I can't sing) at a thrift store. The baby roses are silk from an Etsy Vendor in France. One of my no-so-thought-out purchases in the early morning before coffee.</div>

What I liked about them is that they light up. Tiny little LED's in the centre of each rose. I don't know what I was thinking that morning.</div>

I always have to have a bird cage. The magazine holders I tried to improve on Ikea wooden ones. No matter how I tried, I was never really happy with them. I like my cardboard covered with wallpaper ones better.</div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: medium;"></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: medium;">Here we

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: medium;"></span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: medium;">1. I love all kinds of crafts and have probably tried most of them at one time or another. Right now my favorites are scrapbooking and vintage collage making.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: medium;"></span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: medium;">2. My favorite colour is WHITE. Is there any other? lol</span></span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: medium;">3. I don't read books very often, but I am a magazine fanatic. Some of my favorites are Romantic Homes, Somerset Life, and Jeanne d' Arc Living. I will usually pick up any special issue about vintage or flea market decor.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: medium;"></span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: medium;">4. I don't much care for tea, however I love collecting anything with a tea theme. Teacups, teapots, linens, silver etc.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: medium;"></span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: medium;">5. I am a recent Pinterest addict.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: medium;"></span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: medium;">6. Thrift store shopping is probably my most fun thing to do. I have also had the blessing of attending several vintage markets this summer. Love them, too!</span></span><br />

This is one of the spring projects that my Dad built for me this year. It is so great to have him living with us - he will build anything I ask him to. The armoir in the centre was a Craig's list find. He converted it from a computer desk into office storage. We sold the old Ikea bookcases that looked out of place in my colour scheme, but then I missed looking at all my pretty things that used to sit on them for display. I have to have my 'things' you know.</div>

So, Elinor from <a href="http://thepassionatehome.com/" target="_blank">The Passionate Home</a> suggested that we just add some small cases on either side of the armoir. Of course I could not find anything in the right size pre-made. So that was when I asked Dad if he would make them for me. Of course, how could he say 'no'.</div>

I love how we used beadboad as the backing, and all the trim to make it look finished. Even all the edges have trim on them. </div>

Now I need to take some photos of them filled up. I thought I had already done that. I guess that is for next time.</div>

I was a wee bit surprised (shocked) to find this on my bed. I should have known something was up when the house was so quiet one afternoon. My daughter's puppy, I believe, was to blame.</div>

I know it's been a R-E-A-L-L-Y long time since you have all had a post from me. This afternoon is quiet and the housework is done (is it really ever always done?) so I thought I should catch up on some of the things that I have been doing around the cottage.</div>

The first thing I noticed is that Blogger is totally all changed! So I have to figure things out again. This may take some time, so I will keep my posts simple.</div>

I met a fellow blogger and ARTISTE EXTRAORDINARE quite by accident one afternoon while my DH and I were taking a drive in a different township. My eagle eyes spotted a "Craft Sale" sign and I shouted - follow that sign! We did, and we eventually came to a home where several crafts people had set up a small sale. Of course I had to see what they had. I saw a few of Kristy's goodies, notably the signs that she makes. I fell in love. I took her business card and sent her an email asking if she would consider making a custom one for me. She agreed and here is the resulting treasure.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Kristy has an amazing talent and the wood seems to inspire her. She loves a good challenge, too.</div>
