http://www.thefindsblog.com/2014/01/2014-what-what.html
Thursday, January 2, 2014. 2014 demands that I blog, because I just realized that I started blogging almost 4 years ago. FOUR YEARS AGO! Anywho, just a few photos to ease us into the new year. I got this photo from a client who came into the shop looking for something above her mantle. I pulled together some blue willow plates we had in the store and did a little arranging of them on the floor. She liked so I sent her home with a blue print and this is what she did:. And I celebrated the new year with th...

FINDS: August 2013
http://www.thefindsblog.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, August 27, 2013. Alright I'm going to say something that might make me unpopular, but I didn't hate Miley Cyrus' performance at the VMA's. I mean girlfriend got weird with it, and I could have done without the foam number one hand antics, BUT it was different, and she got us all talking about it, so props. And would you catch me twerking it and motorboating a big butt on stage? Still needs many, many layers added (pillows? But at least I no longer feel like clawing my eyes out when I see this fo...

FINDS: Catching Up
http://www.thefindsblog.com/2014/02/catching-up.html
Tuesday, February 18, 2014. Things around FINDS have really started to get busy since the first of the year. Last week I had the pleasure of meeting up with Mary Beth Paulson of House of Landor, a new high-end vintage clothing business here in Raleigh. She brought over the most sumptuous, amazing vintage clothing and let me try on (and pose for the camera, though I'm pretty shy in front of it! In a fabulous vintage number. And see all the fab pieces she gets in every single week. I'm thinking I need to h...

Friday, December 13, 2013. Two Makeovers and Yes I know Beyonce Released a Secret Album! Two quick before and afters to share with you today. We never got a chance to discuss the transformation of the 6 faux bamboo and caning chairs currently on sale HERE. Super snooze fest so I knew that this wasn't a "just paint it black or white" situation. So enter my crazy brain which schemed up chartreuse. Think along the lines of:. You know I had been dreaming of black trim. So one night I decided to turn this:.

That I scoped on the C Wonder site:. Links to this post.

FINDS: Black Trim
http://www.thefindsblog.com/2013/12/black-trim.html
Tuesday, December 3, 2013. Today is day 1,000,001 of being sick. I feel as though I may never breathe right again. I'm pretty sure there is a butt indentation on our velvet couch because I haven't left it. Lewis doing his best impersonation (in-dog-onation? Excuse the random hand weight and the grasscloth wallpaper sample.I'm only dreaming with the latter, we rent. All images via Pinterest). It's like eye-liner for your room right? Would you do a different colored trim other than white? I used to be a gi...
