*Bursts through door stumbling and breathing heavily.
I’m here! Sorry for the radio silence for the last little bit. Things hit fever pitch while I was wrapping a bunch of stuff and every time I sat down to write I just couldn’t find the words. You know other than “Hey guys!” (I can always find those words.)
So what’s up? I missed you man!
One of the big projects that I’ve been working on the last month is a season for The Design Network. Do you know how hard it is to get ready (as in dressed, showered, hair and makeup that frequently?! Oh my gosh. It was torturous.) You can pop over and check out the promo reel for the show, it turned out so cute, I cant wait for you guys to see the projects!
I found this super basic campaign dresser at the thrift store for $35. I am painting it (and giving you guys a full tutorial on how to paint laminate!) for Sherwin-Williams National Painting week that is coming up.
All last week I was in Salt Lake for SNAP! It’s a conference for creative bloggers and so so much fun. My girl Brooke and I took 60 fabulous ladies on a thrifting tour through Salt Lake. We only had 2 hours so we cut right to the chase and hit up George’s Architectural Salvage and Euro Treasures Antiques. If you promise not to laugh you can click on this SUPER old post/video that I did about Euro Treasures in 2011.
Oh my gosh I can’t believe I just voluntarily resurfaced that post.
I walked away from George’s with this retro spun aluminum sconce, it might need a little cleaning…
At Euro Treasures (if you’ve never been you are SO missing out, you’ve got to go and experience the magic) I scored 2 vintage Kilim and a small Native American rug. I think that the darker red is going to go in my entryway and I am planning on turning the small one into a pillow.
Basically I scored big time.
All in all, I’m glad to be back to normal life for a bit! Missed you guys!
That is an entire year of good luck scoring those beautiful rugs!
Your new loft definitely wants those
um. YES major kilim score! dang! and OMGosh laughing, regarding how hard it is to get ‘ready’ on a regular basis. it’s hard being beautiful, at least regularly! lol. thanks for the fun read . . . and the cool promo reel. i think you got’the’life?!
Omg, that white, black, gold and fuchsia rug. I’m dying, its so cute…
How much were the rugs?
I like the dresser the way it is now. However, I cant’ wait to see what you do with it!
Love the rugs! And it looks like some of the other gals found some goodies 🙂
That small colorful kilim is EVERYTHING. Can’t wait to learn more about the The Design Network project!
I’m weighing the pros and cons of buying my first plane ticket just to check this Euro Treasures place out.
Had an amazing time with everyone at the stores!!! My Typewriter is looking AWESOME and it’s such a beautiful color, I’m amazed someone didn’t pick it up before me!
I am in love with that middle rug!!!!
