Our furniture has been featured on season 3 of
For those of you who are not familiar with Nicole Curtis,
she is a very talented lady that restores old houses that are in shambles and ready to be torn down.
She finds beauty in things that most people would just throw away.
(I, as many others, am a huge fan, she is so inspiring!!!)
How our furniture ended up getting featured...
I have watched this show on the DIY network called
Rehab Addict and of course you can "like" just about everything on facebook, so
of course I "liked" the show with a little help of a friend showing me the page.
Nicole Curtis posted on facebook to send her anything
creative, things like art, crafts, etc... so she can showcase the items in the latest
house she restored. So I sent a few pictures of our furniture thinking never in
a million years they will like our stuff, but I had to try right? Well no
kidding I got an email back!!! So next thing I know,
my mom, my husband, and I are driving about 2 hours in the first snow storm of
the year to St. Paul to deliver this furniture. (We got around 14 inches of
snow that snow storm.) Yes we are crazy, but I wasn't going to let anything come
in my way of delivering that furniture. The pictures below are of the furniture showcased in the Case house from Nicole Curtis Rehab Addict Facebook page.
A little history on the furniture...
This a dresser I got at an auction, when my husband saw it he said "why did you buy that?" He said there was water damage on the bottom, that it was not salvageable and that it pretty much belonged in the trash. I kept asking him if we could fix that bottom at all, I was not going to throw it away, I loved it too much. So I showed it to my mom and she said we could totally fix it! So after all her hard work...this is what it looks like. I guess we told my husband, look where it is now :)!!!
The two side tables that are in the teal color are the ones we did. One of the tables I found on the side of the road when I was walking with my best friend. The other one I found on craigslist.
If you love the pictures, you have to check out

This is SOOOOOO cool! Your furniture is famous! I love her and her show. Congrats on being featured!
