Quite Simply...Beautiful Things Link Party



Weekly Link Party
Quite Simply...Beautiful Things

Our Features this week:

Shades Of Blue Interiors created this amazing wardrobe using French Linen and Old White.  Your heavy sanding and "Miss Mustard Seed" hand painted touches are perfection!  

White Lace Cottage shares a bit of whimsy with one mismatched chair, love that.  A combination of Old White and Old Ochre with a cottage shabby chic fabric found at a thrift store is absolutely wonderful!


It's time to Link Up this week!

1.  Feel free to share all your beautiful things!

Our features this week:

Your dresser turned out just beautiful.  The stained top and distressed base is a lovely combination!  I also enjoyed your pictures of Gruene, we were there back in 2007 for my brothers wedding.  Such a quaint little place, enjoyed the Gristmill too!




An old school desk for only $11 and look at the results!  Miss Mustard Seed in Tricycle with Holiday inspired words.  Nice job and thank you for Linking Up!

Miss Mustard Seed is in the House...

...Shades Of Amber House!

We are absolutely thrilled Marian came to visit and teach us how it's done.


 Marian gives expert advise during her Milk Paint Workshop .


Have you ever wondered if Marian mixes her paint by hand or uses a mixer?


The burning question is answered, By Hand!

She typically does not let it sit, she gets right to the task at hand and starts painting!


Marian shows us how she takes off the loose paint.





Up close, the aged look we want. 



She is so well prepared & organized with great visuals of the pieces she has completed. 


Once class was over Marian signed her books and visited with those that attended class.

If you are in the area, please stop by for a book signing this evening from 
5-7pm.  We'd love to see you and Marian would too!  

Looking forward to another full day tomorrow of Marian's talents.
