Afters and Updates

Hey everyone! I know I have been absent from the blog for a little while, and I apologize, but I have been stretched a little thin over the past few weeks. Getting ready for the 101 Vintage Supermarket has been so busy but the pop up opens today and I am all set up in my vendor space! I have also been working on getting the Etsy restocked. Look out for some awesome new stuff soon!

Anyway, I am back, it’s sunny and warm outside, it’s the first of May and as promised I have some afters for you!

This cabinet needed some work and it got a makeover just in time for spring! I was inspired by a photo a friend sent me. She just bought a house and we have been talking lately about what she plans to do with it design wise. The photo was a Kijiji listing of a beautiful vintage corner cabinet much like this one, in amazing 50s inspired colors. As soon as I saw it I knew that is the route I wanted to take with this lovely piece!

I painted it in my favorite mint green (which I am still not over by the way!) and lined the shelves with a cute polka dot wallpaper that I got at the Habitat for Humanity Re-store for only a dollar!

Also, don’t forget these guys:

These side tables were done in Miss Mustard Seed milk paint and they turned out just the way I had planned! I definitely have a lot to say about my first milk paint experience. I can also offer some helpful tips and things that worked for me, and what didn’t. Check back for that post soon!

These pieces and a few others as well as vintage furniture and wares can be found at 1418 Dundas St. West for the 101 Vintage Supermarket from May 1st to May 11th. There will be lots of amazing vendors selling great vintage and handmade clothing, jewellery, housewares and other awesome things! Go have a gander!

The market will also be part of the Toronto Vintage Crawl, May 9th. Over 30 vendors will be a part of this event so it would be a good opportunity to acquire some awesome vintage swag! Check out the Facebook events page for more info!
