White Wednesday is once again being celebrated over at Faded Charm and I am joining in to share with you some more sneak peeks for our upcoming At Home With White Show at the shop.
I picked this painting up a few summers ago at a yard sale and it has been back and forth to my booth a few times...
Here is a little peek at what it looks like now...
I have been painting some new signs on vintage beadboard...
As well as gathering some prairie inspired treasures...
I am loving all the shades of vintage whites I am finding...
Maybe next week I will share with you what all these treasures are nesting on!
I have been recycling some old pieces and giving them a new look...
I removed the door to an old music cabinet to sell on it's own.
The old music cabinet looks great with it's new paint job and would make a great storage piece!
I must admit I am feeling the crunch but it is energizing at the same time! I want to make sure I put enough time into all the little details for display, something I never got to last year.
Now, I must take a moment to share with you a little exciting news from my family.
My son Jake finally made his decision on where he wants to go to college next year...
We are all so proud of you!
You know, I thought it would be easier the second time around, but the happy/sad tears appeared again.
I am dreading the end of the summer even more now.
Thank you Kathleen for hosting and thank you all for visiting!
Have a wonderful day!!

Your shop is going to be amazing. I wish I lived closer so I could visit.
Your stuff for your booth looks great, Sandi. It looks fresh and ready for adoption. I hope it flies right out of your booth.
I remember those bittersweet days of kids fluttering out of the nest and off to school (or to their own lives). It is a happy/sad thing for sure! xo Diana
your white event is looking very promising! I so hope to make it there with Susan! Congrats to Jake on his acceptance to Bridgewater State! Oh my..."empty-nesitng"...CALL me! ;)
You have found some great items and the frame is very pretty in white! Love the prize ribbons. I've been hunting for some of those.
You have been one busy lady!! Everything looks gorgeous, you will have a great sale.
Congrats to your son for making his college decision. Exciting, and yes, a little sad at the same time (at least for Mom).
Have a great day.

Your makeover on the painting is just perfect Sandi!! Loving that old music stand also.
Congrats to Jake and I know it is a big decision so kudos to him!!
Hugs~
Sigh. I wish I lived closer. I so want to come shop sometime!
HI!!! I adore the boots with the horse ribbon, pitchfork. I of course am getting a little prairie inspired as well. Happy White Wednesday

Huge congrats to y'all and your son. While it is a bittersweet time, it's also a huge achievement both for him and y'all as his parents.
BTW...loving the pitchfork...you little devil you!

It definitely was not easier for me the second time around because it meant an empty nest. Congratulations to the "to be" collegiate and good luck at your event. It all looks delightful <3

These peeks are filling me with anticipation. You've got some great finds and transformed treasures - yippee!
Hope you don't shed too many sad tears, Sandi. Jake will be somewhat nearby - congratulations to him!
I am in total shock that the gorgeous roses painting has not SOLD. It always surprises me in my booth at what sales quickly and what just languishes...:) Happy WW
What pretty things you have found. I think they'll fly out of your booth. WHY can't I be there to help them????
Hugs,

You have some great items for your sale!
When our girls left for college, I just kept telling myself to be happy that they were excited to start a new chapter in their lives.
i sooooo want to shop at the sale!! that frame looks amazing as a chalkboard....won't last long!
best wishes to your boy......he's made a big decision!
I love all of your treasures for your shop. Everything looks amazing!
Congrats to your son!! Our oldest is at a local community college for now before he goes to a university next year. Our middle child will probably go straight to a university. Thankfully, we have a few more years before the youngest will be moving out. :( Not ready.
Wish I lived close to you. Would love to see your wonderful treasures. Thanks for stopping by and hope you can come visit my Simple & Sweet Fridays. New Follower on your blog.

having it all in the details they say...I do think that is right - or totally minimal with only some killer furniture showing -
either way: have fun!
Love all of your goodies, Sandi...lots of eye candy! LOVE that painting!
