{so in love}
I got it for free!!! So I put Mr. Dior to work and married it with two
vintage egg crates that I scored from Goodwill for 5.00
my oldest son loves to cook
so I had to have his favorite bread book
for my table
I purchased a sampler can of Charcoal
from Restoration Hardware to use
on a few accent pieces...
old cast iron urn from the Goodwill
5.99
love how it looks with the Charcoal paint
I also used it on the top of this old school desk
from the Goodwill as well
I also found some great frames ranging from
3.99 to 5.99
to frame my favorite drawings from
an old anatomy book and sea fan coral
{swoon Goodwill}
I added some dark colored old books
and other accessories
from an Estate sale inside my white hutch for
a pop of color blend...
filled the urn with my touch
of sea sponge and albalone shells
Have a beautiful week
my darlings...
This is for Sue
Gracie stealing the show at Country Roads

Oooo! kate I wanted to mention I am a big lover of bleached woods, I have some in my one home, I strip off the paint and let it speak to me in the "natural!"
I would love to strip down my kitchen cabinets and then wash them a bit with watered down paint leaving it a very very soft spoken bleach wood look to the grain of the wood, I must make time for this :)

There are a quite a few things about this post I absolutely love! The focal point of the table with crates, is well way cool but then the fact that you have an in home cook/bread baker, love the picture of your mother with you son! love the urns your style is amazing and I love the fact that you pull together a very hip expensive look from goodwill and yard sales. I am always excited when I see you have a new post as I know I am in for a treat, content and music!!

Hi Kate,
I can't seem to comment here using my blogger acct... so weird. And it ate my last comment. Well I just wanted to tell you, you've done it again!! I'm speechless! This is why I love your blog. You seamlessly marry the rustic with the elegant and do it on a dime! There are a couple of other blogs I *love* but I always leave feeling a little discouraged because I don't have a Restoration Hardware furniture budget, but when I come here I am so inspired! I love that you share the price and where you got the items, it's so encouraging. Thank you! And I swear your So Cal Goodwill's are so much better than the ones in the bay area, unbelievable what you find down there!! Now I just want to see more of your house! You know, dining room, kitchen, etc. Hint hint! Lol! Have a great day,
xo

I couldn't see the video...I'll be back to try again!
O.K you need to be on "Picker Sisters" what a great idea..love it!!! x0x0
I was thinking about you last week Kate and hoping that all was good with you.
I love your reclaimed table top. What a score my friend!
Rats..I couldn't get the video clip to play, it tells me to try later.
hugs from here...
Wow . . . you are a great and creative bargain hunter, Kate. Do you give lessons?
Fondly,
Glenda
Dear Kate,
I love the pops of black, the grays and the different metallics. Makes me want to take a seat and have a glass of wine! ...and girl, only you would score vintage egg crates for $5!! I'm loving your table.
Blessings,
Pat Allen
I wish our Goodwill was like yours, Kate.
Your home is beautiful and I love all the personal "you" touches. It's a showcase,it shows how much thought and love you put into your surroundings. You inspire.

Hi Kate, Goodwill never looked so good. I love how you can take such simple, inexpensive pieces and turn them into something showhouse worthy. Your living room is beautiful. Hope your day is great. Tammy
I LOVE that table, so creative the way you put it on top of the metal crates! As usual, your home is lovely and magazine worthy, Kate!
