French Romance, Promise, Ceremony, Designs

Burlap Luxe Home Designs And Art.

I posted my latest cabinet that I married rustically with a Century Furniture Co. Side table
buffet in my last post that felt like it found its place in my home office severing as storage.
I was not sure it felt right so the last couple of days while finishing up some art piece's
I began to study a kitchen wall and this is what came of it.

This is the piece that entertained use in my home office as storage in my last post.
While finishing up some art pieces I was studing this wall in my kitchen, and decided
that this piece was hidden in my office and not looked at enough; you know what I mean?
It was a piece I could not take my eyes off of to its final design and paint finish
I gave it.

The buffet, side board was salvaged from a local thrift shop, I paided $22.00
for, and it was in bad scratched up shape, yet sturdy with European country lines;
and what a deal for a piece that came from Century Furniture Co. High Point
North Carolina, the largest industry in trade showing of fine furniture.
The top Cabinet was married to this buffet 2 years later when I found this!
I took out the glass shelving and added aged alder planks splits and all. I
then added raw plywood beadboard backing to another piece of 1/4"
plywood for strength; adding shelving support runs under the shelving incase
I ever wanted to hang it as part of my kitchen cabinets, rustic and inspiring.
The cabinet cost me $30.00. Alder wood and plywood another $31.00
For $83.00 this is what now inspires my kitchen wall.

I am still finding the right pieces to fill the cabinet with.
Yet I do know that the plates will stay because they fit so well in place.

I ordered the plates for a  sweet friend and blogger;
Laura Venosa...

Laura's French pottery plates made with the finest of clays are so loved in our home.
Look at there ir.reg.u.lar not even or balance in shape or arrangement.
I asked her to custom make me some plain in colour and,
as out of shape as she could. Are they just not the most charming plates with so much
French charm?

I love pieces that have multiple personalities, taking on a look for
what ever room you place them in.

Burlap Luxe art piece, created by me! Dore Callaway.

I am loving all the added cabinets in this room adding surround sound to it.
