Hello,With a little imagination, you can turn something old into something new. Take for instance the old aluminum accordion file holder above. When I first saw it sitting on a table amongst old Christmas cards and faded fabric, I didn't even know what the heck it was. After seeing how cool it looked unfolded, I decided it would make a perfect shabby magazine rack-perfect for all my decorator magazines.
The white wine rack above was already painted white, but was bland and lacked any pizazz. I painted the front with chalkboard paint so you can label all your favorite wines and decoupaged a pretty black and white floral paper on the bottom. I even included the white chalk!
A pair of pink French hat boxes complete with the Eiffel Tower sit in front of a gold mirror frame bathroom medicine cabinet I found at the Thrift Store out in the "yard" section.
I love this yellow hand-painted hutch that sits in front of a yellow and black twin headboard with rose applique.
A French poster in a gilded frame hangs on the wall. The white plate rack on the left holds blue London tins with pictures of the London Bridge.
A "zoom-out" of the booth. Yes, this pic is lopsided. And no, I wasn't drinking that early in the morning-just one too many cups of java!
The magazine rack above was already white, but another drab boring piece that needed a little flower decoupage front, distressed edges, and black painted sides.
A shabby creme plant rack and black iron garden fence.
A cute corner in the booth. Anyone recognize Mrs. Beasley?
I painted the bottom of this shabby old wood toolbox in black to add depth and decoupaged some smart-looking striped paper on the top.
And another cute corner with the chalkboard girl's shelf, an old landscape puzzle, and fabulous pink "Glamour" ribbon.Have a happy day!

A pretty black, scroll chandelier with sparkly crystals hangs in the corner.
