and in this corner... primitive French shutters

We are trying really hard to make our Tuesday 10/20 deadline! We signed up for the procrastinators party at The Inspired Room. We agreed to complete a project we had been procrastinating. We have a ho-hum corner with a buffet we just knew we could make into something special. So, we have been busy.
Now to anchor our newly updated corner, we are starting with a pair of French shutters that the Hubs bought for my birthday last year. We found them at our favorite architectural salvage place, Ohmega Salvage, in Berkeley, Ca. I spied them in one of their outdoor storage containers & rushed to find Hubs. We both love primitives, so we agreed, they. were. fabulous. They were more money than we normally pay for salvaged items, but felt better when they said that they were 100+ years old and really did come from France.
They will be the anchor to a fun new corner in our great room.

Please come back for a visit!
We will be posting the whole make-over on Tuesday!

ho-hum needs a make-over!

I have been the all-time great procrastinator with all things bloggy. So it is only right that I come back to the blog-o-sphere by participating in a Procrastinator's Party.
The Inspired Room has the best party going! It's to give a little shove to all of us out there with unfinished projects, to procrastinate no more!
So, I am back and we are going to make-over a Heywood Wakefield buffet in our great room that is just plain ho-hum. By October 20th I hope this little corner really sings! Stay tuned!
