Vintage Charm Features of the Week:
Cecilia’s Pick
Just in case you've ever doubted the difference a little paint can make, you simply must see the dramatic transformation Eilis from My Heart Lives Here created in her French Country Guest Bedroom. You will not believe the before images, and you may be overcome with the sudden urge to run out and buy paint to refresh your guest bedroom!

Victoria from Dazzle While Frazzled found two really cool bar stools on Craigslist that had been in an auto body shop. They were grease covered and in need of a makeover. She recovered the stools with retro fabric bringing them back to life and then added padded backs for a terrific finished look. Victoria provides us with a detailed tutorial in How to Quickly Recover Barstools and Add a Padded Back.

If you've always wondered what's the best way to style a shelf, pop on over to Rhonda's Ramblings of a Southern Girl and take a look at her Modern Meets Vintage Home Office Shelfie. She expertly describes how she seamlessly mixed vintage and modern to create unique, eclectically vintage office shelves. And I thought I was the only one out there who liked to pair vintage with modern in my vignettes!

Diana’s Pick
I've admired many handmade greenhouses over the years, but none so much as the one designed and built by Penny and her husband at Penny's Vintage Home. Their Petite Garden Conservatory is literally to die for and just as shabby chic as you might expect, complete with its own chandelier. Love the project, Penny.

Doreen from Altered Artoworks had me at Paris with this fabulous beachy makeover of a rather dark and dated magazine table. I absolutely love the style of the table, and the colour she used really brings it back to life. It's so gorgeous! You really must pop over and and see the before. It's hard to believe it's the same table!
