A Beautiful Quote

I came accross this very simple but just so beautiful quote yesterday that touched my heart so I thought I would share it with you...

God doesn't look at how much we do, but with how much love we do it.

Cottage Chic Vintage Furniture Makeover

Vintage Vanity Stool Makeover

Often when I come accross a great flea market treasure, I think of the saying, "when the world hands you a lemon, make lemonade"!

This wonderful saying so perfectly describes my passion for re-inventing and re-designing vintage finds into delightfully chic treasures! 

I thought you would enjoy seeing the process of this pretty vanity stool being transformed from shabby to chic!
