mixed marriages do work....

Does anyone dislike maple furniture as much as I do?
Maybe because that's all we had growing up...
Maybe because it just looks orange....
But it is still very good wood.

This is a consignment piece I have had in the Shoppe
FOREVER.
The owner told me to do whatever I wanted to it to sell it.
And that was all I needed to hear :)


Not only was it married with a considerably older mirror,
But it was painted the palest shade of pink.....


Distressed, adorned with roses..                        
 And a quick coat of dark brown wax...

 One of my very, very dear flight attendant friends also dropped by
Today with several of her handmade tutus for Tatsey....
(Hmmmmm, I like the way that sounds....tutus for tatsey :)
Sounds like a song.
Anyway

I just had to keep one in the Shoppe to remind me of Penny,
So it went on the lamp shade on the newly painted dresser.

 Thanks for stopping by today,
You know I love it when you come.

I am joining Beverly at How Sweet the Sound for
her infamous Pink Saturday
