Old To New, Your Great Redoux, Friday Link Up Party!

Thank you so much to everyone who linked up.  I am so happy you ladies are still out there working hard.  If you haven't noticed, I have had very few "redouxs" myself.  I mostly do contract work, and this summer,  I decided to take some time off and enjoy my family.  My oldest starts High School this year, and I wanted to soak up as much summer as I could.  But, like all good things, our summer is coming to an end (so is my extra cash!.....) so back to work I go!  

This week, there so many projects I wanted to copy.  I wish I had time to do them all!  Ah, just add them to my ever growing "to do someday list".....

I have TWO fabulous features for you today, because one I could not choose just one. 

1st up we have

Art is Beauty

With this beautiful table.....now I know we have seen something like this recently, but what I loved about this project was this tip.  The table was heavily sanded in some areas, less in others, so the stain would take unevenly and take on an "aged" patina.  I would NEVER have thought of this. GREAT TIP!

Look how the stain takes to the wood!  I am so using this tip!

Next, I am so please to share with you this finished bathroom vanity from the hilarious blogger,
Vintage Junk in my Trunk

 (I had to put entire URL in, for some reason, blogger giving me grief here....)

I am huge fan on re-purposed dressers and chests to be used as bathroom vanities.  This is one of my favorites.  Look at all the goodies she has around it!

Please go check out both of these lady's blogs for more of their great ideas and inspiration.
