Well Its November 1st so you no what that means!!!
No im not talking election day, turkey day, silver bella or any other big event coming this month..
Novemeber 1 st means its..........
New Jewel of the month time!!!!!
Now..... Thats what im talkin about! :)
And is this a good one that I have for your daily dose of inspiration!!!
Our November Jewel of the month comes to us from the land down under in
Australia!
It is Mandii’s beautiful Shabby home.
Mandii said when they bought their modern façade home 7 years ago it it likewise started out inside with modern interiors, but boy has it changed!
People say that when they walk into their house its not what they expected. Its more warm and cozy which is the look she is going for.
Mandii describes her style as Shabby Old meets Shabby New!
She loves old pieces of furniture that are marked and dented with peeling paint, each piece has its own story to tell.
She started making over chairs into shabby style and since she wasn’t into that style of decorating she would sell them on ebay without a hitch since she didn’t really like them.
Then her designs evolved and she started making over lamps and lampshades and then onto bigger furniture.
She was also one of the first aussie gals to make Shabby faux cakes etc, they look so wonderful on display without any temptation at all!!
Mandii sells items on eBay every week.
Her eBay user name is- Shabby_Vintage_dreams

Your art pieces are so beautiful. Wanted to mention Lymes...had a friend who got it twice. So, I know it wears on you, but it hasn't stopped you from creating awsomely beautiful things! I finally did some new stuff for the blog (pages). Stop by if you get time.
