Setting the "stage"

We just happened to get a SNOW DAY & in my world, that is a jackpot day in itself. Jason had the day off, so we visited The Painted House in Cookeville to pick up some Annie Sloan paint and made our way over to 2 Sisters Blue House Primitives and More to see what they had to offer.
We are just now branching out into painting pieces, so we decided to pick up some Blackberry House paint to try out. We also grabbed up a really funky looking table at Goodwill to try out some Sour Apple or Butter Butter paint on. Who knows, maybe we'll use both colors. Adventurous.
That got us motivated to pull some things out of the garage when we got home and do a little "staging" of what we picked up this weekend.

Look at this beautiful mantle from the 1800's!!

We hope to look back at this first attempt of putting our "junk" together and giggle at how newbie-looking it is. Ha! At this moment, we are so proud of ourselves for picking up so many interesting and truly vintage pieces. We'll see how it all shapes up!
