Reveal #2! This handsome antique pine dresser not only has patina, but is one of those dressers that is versatile in its use, too! It could be used as an end table, nightstand, foyer table, bathroom or bathroom sink vanity and so much more. The color is gorgeous. Available in the shop for this weekend’s #rustandrefindartisanmarket or on Etsy/click shop above for more details.

I almost always gravitate toward and love a room with a masculine feel. Leather, taxidermy, plaids and heavy furniture, and not a frilly in sight. But, for some balance and to lighten the room mood, I will incorporate some light. So, reveal! This is one of two new dressers we brought in to the shop and he’s so handsome. Antique burled English mahogany that oozes patina! It’s one of those things (and there are many) that I buy for the shop without a care if they sell because it’s mine anyway and I could take this guy home. Mr. Rust and Refind is eyeing him...he even helped find him! And here’s a peak at one of the wall papers in stock...this has a very old world look to it that I am crushing over. Both available now at the shop! Dresser on Etsy as well. We open this weekend! Come see what’s new!

Just sayin’... #sundaysips #sundaysillies Mr. Rust and Refind and I tweaked the shop today (well I tweaked, he hefted... but had lots of input 🤪) and we are dead dog tired and thirsty. So, these two crows are doing Sunday evening front porch sittin’ and sippin’. Hope you had a great Sunday!

I can’t resist an antique basket with dried autumn florals, can you? Happy Sunday everyone.

Sneak peak at two new pieces coming to the shop for the next #rustandrefindartisanmarket October 3-4 (ladies night 2 October). This is pure yummylicious patina! Pine and English mahogany. Mr. Rust and Refind snagged a Bavarian beer stein and a couple antique books, too as a reward for the heavy lifting! Love happy picking days!

More canvas type wallpapers...this (there are two styles) close up floral is similar to a sepia tone and is gorgeous, much smaller than the others and can be used as art (we even have frames that would work), or hanging by themselves. Beautiful!

#fridayfunny for this Friday-yay and this is perfect for this gloomy-ish Friday morning. I miss the days when I could lounge and read a book all day interrupted with a nap. In talking with the artisans at the #rustandrefindartisanmarket , naps are either short and sweet or long and groggy. I am not a good “power napper”...If I nap, it could be two hours and then I wake up groggy! Are you a power napper, or long napper?

It’s #workshopwednesday ...the #rustandrefindartisanmarket is open today 11-5, but I will be in the workshop in a private workshop. Feel free to pop your head into the workshop for any help with transactions or product. One of the other artisans is usually there, too. Meanwhile, here’s a quick @paintcouturepaint glaze how-to. We offer several glaze options to pair with our paints. Glaze is a great way to add dimension and to accentuate details on your furniture and crafts, especially those carved portions. It’s also a sealer and a stain! We we also be open Thursday, 1-5! Come see us!

Oh happy day! It’s Fall! What’s your favorite part of the season? First thing you think of? Falling leaves 🍁 Fires 🔥and the food🍎!

If only this was my side/back yard...sigh. #sunda

If only this was my side/back yard...sigh. #sundayslows yesterday for Mr. Rust and Refind and I as we took the day off to completely do nothing except drive in the country, and have a picnic lunch at one of my favorite small town views in Millwood, VA. We still haven’t made it to The Buttery Restaurant @lockestore but we had a fantastic general store picnic lunch of Ribollita Soup, sandwiches and, because we had absolutely no reason other than to chill, Reason Beer. Best reason ever, right? @reasonbeer

I’m happy when I get to paint, and I finally got to paint after a long break. These nightstands were painted in @paintcouturepaint Shale Stone, which is a lovely blue-gray and will be going to a client of @joyfullylived who picked the color to work in the space she’s designing. Can’t wait to see them staged in the room! Was happy to have a small “contribution” and I know the space will look awesome after Allison does her “thang”. Julie: Here’s your sneak peak! :o)

So, not everything is yellow, brown and orange....

So, not everything is yellow, brown and orange....this green lantern (the last one) is a great anchor and transitional color to each season and works all year round. A few new amber/mustard glass bottles in (large), too. The white Sugarmolds , candle pillars, and column bases are perfect for your fall and winter decor. Open next on Wednesday 11-5. Happy Saturday...enjoy yourselves and happy fall 🍂🍁decorating. 🍎 Cider donuts are out (my fave), and all things 🎃 pumpkin are in the stores...now it’s really fall~!🧡

I ain’t gonna lie (and all my friends know I’m not) ..I love dishes. And this Spode collection is super sweet because it has the original order from a NATO Colonel in England in August 1969 (with an arrival of January 1970). Back in the day...you ordered and waited for your dishes to come in. Love the story. This Chelsea Wicker earthenware (notice the cross out from bone china) pattern is good for all year.

This vintage round wood cheese box just oozes patina! The warm colors and that hand-painting make this a perfect autumn addition to your fall decorating, but perfect for all year round (and it’s a twofer....stores things, too!)
