August Pictures!!!!!

 I took soooo many photos of this month's sale cuz there are so many treasures that I didn't know where to start - or end!  So get a cup of coffee, sit yourself down and enjoy the 30 pictures!!!  Starting with Barb's area - and you know I am her biggest fan!  She does traditional with a mix of modern and industrial and shabby and whimsical and always, always, always makes it work!

 I love this old worktable Barb has in the center of her room!  Perfect for family dining or projects!

 LOVE the rusty old Miller sign - and underneath it is a great bar that Brad put together with an awesome tin front!  You're gonna want it!

 My over the top slightly shabby/slightly fru-fru area!!  I just fell in love with the great Italian lamp and matching sconce.  And the flowers on the lamp are on a separate dimmer switch - instant mood lighting!

 One of my handsome husband's harvest tables.  It is made from Douglas Fir that he salvaged from an old Burlington Northern boxcar!  The paint colorings on it are fantastic!  It is almost 7 feet long so you can seat everyone!

 Just had to show the top of the table!  I know I'm biased - but I think it turned out so nice!  If my kitchen were bigger it would be staying at my house!

 MaryAnn has a great mixture of junk this month!  Lots of soft creamy colors, great smalls and comfy chairs! 

 Angela was still working on her space when I left - but this bench caught my eye!  She has some great upholstered pieces in there too - and a couple pieces in the best shade of blue!

 A great wicker set is out on the deck - along with tons of other fun stuff!  We still have a couple of months to enjoy our yards!

 This pink dresser of Cathy's is absolutely out of this world dreamy!  And she has tons of great vintage fabrics, pillows and cloths that just scream "Take me home!"

 I just love, love, love Susan's bright yellow sofa!  She has it so comfy all piled with pillows and quilts!  What a great napping spot!

 I think this set of 4 vintage chairs are just a hoot!  How much fun would they be in your breakfast nook?

 Peter's center island is drop dead gorgeous!  The top is from a warehouse pallet and sitting on the wire base - a match made in heaven!  Enough room to slip a couple of stools under it, storage on the wire shelves, and the top removes very easily for moving!

 Peter's CUTE, CUTE, CUTE cowboy boots!

 Love the Rainbow Band! 

 Peter has 3 - count them THREE great warehouse carts just waiting to be a coffee table in your home!  And different finishes too - and the kettle drum - a great one of a kind table!

 Lynn has lots of great junk too - including a wonderful sink, an old church hymn board - AND this incredibly comfy chair!

 Oh yeah - and this great dresser turned center island or work spot or whatever you want it to be.  The top is phenomenal!

 Sandy's spot wasn't quite finished yet - but her soft grays and whites - with that gorgeous red cupboard.................She really has an eye for finding great pieces and knowing how to display them!  I think we are gonna have to check out her house!

 Denise has this great cupboard in her area - she still wasn't finished either - but look quick at this cupboard - I don't think it will last long!

 Dinah's spot is perfect as usual!  So many interesting little things in it - a great upholstered chair, chippy shutters, gorgeous frames and suitcases - you know she is always a favorite!

 This little piece of Brad and Amy's kept calling my name - over and over and over! 

 Is there anyone out there who is not in love with Ted's cupboards?  I don't think so!  As usual we have an array of different cupboards and styles.  I am partial to this one with the shutters!

 Tammy and Yvonne - our newest gals have absolutely outdone themselves!  Their paint techniques and finishes are spot on!  The creamy dresser with large mirror is an absolute must have!

 More of Tammy and Yvonne's things! 

 Okay - I really, really, really like this cupboard of Ted's too!  And such a perfect small size - it could go anywhere!

 LOVING the great desk chair and dresser!

 This huge old store piece is from Jim and Becky!  They know how to pick em - and how to re-finish them!  And I know you have all become huge fans of Becky's signs!

 LOVE the colors on the interior of this piece!

Looking down the hallway to my area - Mike's table and a gorgeous cupboard that he made as well - and lots of fun signs and pieces from fanning mills and other pieces of farm equipment!

New Beginnings - August Sale Starts to Come Together!

 Did you notice that there was an extra week between the June and July sale?  And we are on a very SHORT time frame between the July and August sale.  So we should all be busting our butts to get some great treasures done for you guys!  Unfortunately, the heat and humidity busted our butts - so now we are all behind and scurrying around like little mice to cram 3 weeks of work into 1 week!  Will we do it??????  BUT OF COURSE!!!!!  Some of us (Barb and Susan) are almost all done - drat those two - they always make the rest of us look bad!!  But most of us are just getting our first loads in the door, still painting and building and just barely starting on placement!  I still managed to get a few good photos tho - thank goodness for my son and his smart phone camera - I dropped my camera in a puddle on Saturday:(  But I'll have a new one later this week!  Can you see what Ted has used for the back of his cupboard?  It is an old sign - with such great colors!

 A nice size table and 4 fun metal chairs!  Small enough to fit any home!  And I just know that the chairs WILL HAVE seats in them by August 4th!

 A beautiful dresser with mirror - and don't you just love the placement of the three lamps?  There is nothing like lamps paired or tripled together at varying heights!

 Barb has some of her great artwork this month.  These tins with the little old purses are so sweet!

 Wait til you see this in person - the mirrored top of a buffet - oh so pretty!

 I'm loving this wire piece in MaryAnn's area - I can think of a hundred different uses - bet you can come up with some too!

 Angela is going for a more open look in her area this month - I love the huge mirror on the back wall!  Gives so much light and reflection - think of how that would open up a space in your home!

 Okay, all together now....ooohhh, aahhhh!!!  This item is gonna cause fist fights!

 Peter brought in this beautiful old cupboard that has been perfectly restored.  Yep - drop dead gorgeous!

 Kettle drums.  Since I am not a drummer I see beautiful end tables!

 I will always and forever be in love with most everything in Susan's area!  I love all of her colors!  In front is a great old cabiny kind of sofa painted a bright yellow with lots of red showing thru - and it's pretty darn comfy too!

 Lynn has this incredible cupboard top.  And with a piece this beautiful, who needs the bottom?  Hang it on your wall or stand it on top of whatever piece you happen to have!

 Are you seeing the base on this pedestal table?  Are you drooling like me?  Are we gonna have to draw straws for it?

We might have been having too much fun while we were working last nite!  So how do you think Barb would look with a mustache?????  Okay - back to work now - and more pictures as this week goes on!

And More from the July Sale!

 Mama bird keeping a watchful eye on us!  I am hoping that the babies are gone by Thursday - mama gets a little anxious!!!  And speaking of anxious - oh my stars - we are all so anxious to see all of you cuz are all quite proud of ourselves this month!!!!!  Treasures as far as the eye can see - really unique treasures - really wonderful treasures - super duper - fantabulous - incredibly awesome - the cat's meow - and best in show - SECOND HAND ROSE is the place to be this July!  So set your clocks guys and gals - Thursday will be here quicker than you know!!

 This chair is drop dead gorgeous - just as is in all of her disarray!!

 An incredible 2 tier coffee table made from a great old cart with yellow iron wheels and barn board!

 A fun summertime centerpiece!

 Another great coffee table made from a cream separator base and the flywheel from a fanning mill!  Gorgeous!!

 One of our great carts - turned coffee table!!  This one has a gorgeous finish and is 27" wide and 47" long!  We have another one in a much darker finish that is similar in width - but about 5' long!  And another one waiting in the wings!  This is the month to come and get your very own - and much, much less expensive than Restoration Hardware!  And then get your very own immigrant trunk to go with it!

 Dinah's spot is as beautiful as always.  Period.  Nothing more to say!

 Lynn has these INCREDIBLE theater seats - and this really cool metal door thing hanging on the wall.  I can't decide what I like best!

 These light fixtures are TO DIE FOR!!!!!  Wait til you see them in person - I think there will be line of people wanting them!

 An antique brass fixture that has been electrified - and it is 6' across!!!  Got some cathedral ceilings that are just crying out for a large one-of-a-kind fixture?  We've got it!!

 So much color this month - and tons of awesome artwork too!

This one you gotta see to believe - a circa 1950's chaise lounge in an incredible lime green and black fabric - and it plugs in and massages/vibrates you!!!  But you don't have to plug it in!!
