Out of Commission

I was so excited to go out on Saturday night with some friends, I stopped and got a Starbucks to keep me awake... I knew it was going to be a late night. Then I went to get my nails done (Have I ever mentioned that gel nails are essential to detailed finishing?). As I was waiting for the red light to turn green in the left hand lane I saw an old, muddy jeep flying in the rear-view mirror...I knew what was coming.* EEEEEK SPPPPLLAASH* (thats the sound of me being rear-ended and my grande skinny caramel latte spilling all over my car) Dang it. I had been hit...and hard. I mean this jeep was a'flyin! So i got out (light is STILL red) and had the go get the girl out of her jeep and this is what I got:

me: umm hi
her: (in a valley girl voice) like, is there even any damage?
me: umm yes, to my car but not to yours, lets pull over out of traffic so we can exchange info.
her: well, ok, but, like, can we go to the Shell station, I need to get gas.
me: ummmmm...sure (thinking, you idiot, you just rear ended me and your concerned about getting fuel right now???!!)

Ok, so we pull over to the Shell station, for her convenience, and it was just heck for me, I mean, I was trying to be the nicest I could be, because I have rear ended someone too, and I know that it sucks, but this girl was not sorry or worried in the slightest. She was a complete ditz. Didnt have her insurance on her, had to call mommy and daddy to get her information. WOW. (all in the meantime she goes into the Shell station, buys herself some candy and a drink and fuels up...me with whiplash and coffee all over my car.)

Needless to say...I didnt get my nails done, and I didnt go out that night...and I didnt get my latte either! haha. AND I will be out of commission for I dont know how long, but there will be no furniture for a bit here. :(

GOOD NEWS though! I have some very exciting opportunities coming up for 2012...stay tuned!



Idaho Farm Table *SOLD*

This vintage kitchen table is from a farm house in Idaho. It is solid pine and very sturdy. It has been refinished with a dark walnut stain and top-coated. The base has been painted in an antique white/cream color and heavily distressed and glazed to pick up all the details and markings. It has a very neat stow-away leaf that ads lots of character. I see this piece in an eat-in kitchen, its the perfect size, or as a desk or even a kitchen island! Sold to a cute couple that just moved from New Zealand!
Before: (this one took A LOT of sanding!)
