Rustic in the Rough

I love making special wedding gifts and doing unique wrapping! This piece was hand painted and lettered on top of recycled leather.
Like this concept but have a different design in mind? Let's chat! I have more materials to make similar wall hangings.

A little vintage furniture transformation. Once a child's desk, now a kids vanity! This piece was various shades of green, was missing some k***s, had lots of indents and carvings in the wood. Nothing a little sanding, wood putty and paint couldn't fix! The stand alone mirror was made from recycled materials from a 1950's Boise home. Sorry, not sorry, most of my current and upcoming projects will have pieces from this home. I save so many great pieces!

Trim salvaged from a 1950's Boise home I upcycled into a picture frame. Didn't even bother to paint it, thought the sander was more suited to enhance this rustic farmhouse look. The fabric stapled to the back was a thrifted find!
I always try to find a purpose for something old to reduce waste. A little bit can go a long way.
Have an idea for a project? Let's chat!

My newest design adventure is Home Staging! I got the opportunity to stage a 1950s flip home in Boise. Here are some photos of my work in progress of this farmhouse style home! Most pieces were reused, repurposed and not bought new! I love recycling old pieces and making them into something beautiful. Final photos and house listing link coming soon!

Some saw something OLD and BROKEN.
Some saw JUST a kitchen cabinet.
I saw potential.

Just finished up this beauty. Picked her up with missing k***s, broken apart drawers and a half attached/broke veneer top. Now it has a fun eclectic bo-ho vibe. I love bringing old furniture back to life!
