Hello Everyone:)
Remember I told you that I am switching things up a bit in the library?
OK, so I've had this Victorian Settee in my garage just waiting for me to come to its rescue. 
When I found it I was amazed at how sturdy it was. It didn't move at all when I tugged at it. That and the fact that the price was great, well it was a no brainer. I don't do tufting, yet. And I don't paint every piece I find but this settee had a strange shiny type of wood that I didn't care for so I painted it white. So happy that I did. Then I gave it a deep distressed look by using my little Mouse Sander. I love that sander. I found this great nappy fabric from my favorite fabric shop for the front of the settee. I used simple tacks. Nothing fancy. But you know me, I do my own thing and did the back in one burlap bag. LOVE this color of the stripe And I do love my burlap. It matches the little table that I showed you in my last post. I seem to be so happy doing furniture like this, smiling at every tack I nailed in:) I picked up this gorgeous wooden trim at the flea market from a gentlemen, Matt, who sells fabrics and trims. He always has a great selection to choose from. Guess how much I paid for this piece which is only a part of a piece. Only $3.00!!!!! for the whole piece. Love the markets!!!! The settee comes out a little in the front which is why the trim looks higher in the middle. Nubby love Love the deep distressed curves. Gorgeous rose sits on top:) Don't you just love that stripe?????The wrinkles will eventually relax. They don't bother me a bit.
So what have you been up to? `Till next time...............~Debra xxx
