Last night Mark picked this lovely piece up for me. I wasted no time getting started on it. I painted it last night, and finished it this morning.
Last week the girls and I went up to my brother-in-law's family cottage for the week. It was a wonderful, relaxing week, and it was so nice to get away from the daily grind. We left poor Marko behind to go to work, and with a garage full of pieces to be sold. He landed up selling 6 pieces, so I came home to an empty garage, a blank canvas just begging to be filled with gorgeous antique painted furniture.
hi i am Jen's husband Mark. this is my first blog post ever. i will warn you i am not a writer on Friday June 21th Jen and i will be celabarting our fifth wedding anniversary.
This week was full of one thing: hard work. Next week we are going to a cottage with my family for a week, which I am SO looking forward to. It will be nice to relax and just get away from home and the business and the busyness of life.
This piece is quite a bit different from any other antique pieces I've done. I believe the style is referred to as a "Duncan" style. It is a classic piece, more or less, not so much shabby chic.
On this beautiful Monday of all Monday's, I refinished an antique sideboard. This one is a different style from my usual norm, however it is still just so lovely I had to share it.
