…the open house

February 26, 2012 by christen | 5 Comments

Thank you so much to all those that came by to view my furniture & talk about your pieces to refurnish. It was wonderful meeting you and I know some of you came as far as PA to see me!

This is a peak. I may not be Lucketts, but I’m sure trying 🙂

I’m probably going to tweak my open houses based on what it took to get ready for today. I’ve been so busy trying to get ready that I neglected to ensure that Fiona didn’t have scissors in her room at nap time. She came out 2 hours later with a mullet.

Needless to say, Mommy had to even that out and it’s quite a bit shorter.

I will continue to hold open houses, but only one Sunday a month. Keep an eye on my blog for dates that I will post.

If you are interested in having me refinish your pieces, send me a photo and I will get back to you with an estimate based on labor & materials.

Thank you for coming to see me. It was a pleasure.

FYI – If you are interested in any of the pieces in the photos above, please check out the “Shop” section at www.blueeggbrownnest.com for availability.

    Beautiful pieces. I have done dresser which came out horrid. I meant to ask you if you wouldnt mind answering: what do you apply on the top so that water etc wouldnt stain it? Can’t remember what paint I used but everything leaves a stain I cant get off.
    Do you also paint the handles/knobs?

    I read somewhere that you were thinking of doing your fireplace. Please share.
