That's it!!  Good luck to the winner, now it is on to the features......

I love this buffet 551 East Furniture Design 
did for a client's bathroom.  I wish I had bathroom where this would fit!  (You have to go to her blog to see the crusty before, you will be amazed at the transformation)


 I love this Secretary Makeover Fiona at Lilyfield Life 
did.  Fiona is back in the game after a long hiatus of a broken arm!  Go visit her and check out what she is up to now, she is making up for lost time!  


This dining room set makeover is so gorgeous, but then again, everything from The Girls at "a little bit o' shizzle"
is.  One of the chairs was broken beyond repair, so they used part of it to make this gorgeous bench. This is my kind of "Redoux".  

Art is Beauty  found this scroll dresser in the garbage!!!  It was run-down and pretty sad looking, she did an amazing makeover on it, and the scroll detail just compliments the lines of the dresser perfectly.

 I love the tutorial on how to makeover a plain lampshade to this adorable one from Bless My Nest

And finally, I have to show this because Meredith from Strictly Homemade
took my post on making a cardholder from scrap wood   and just took it to whole new level. She used Pallet wood to create her cardholder, and it couldn't be cuter.  

Now it is your turn!


Good Time Charlie only has a few rules.....

1. Grab a Friday Link up button from my side bar and  PLEASE display on your blog

2. PLEASE LINK BACK HERE AT THE POST, OTHER'S CAN THEN EASILY JOIN THE PARTY!

3. Be friendly and visit each other's blogs. You never know where your next great idea may come from.

I will feature the GTC's sélection next Friday

    Hi Karen, since I recently painted my cabinets I have several friends who LOVE LOVE them and want to know how I knew how to refinish them. And of course I give you the credit? I send them to your blog but we all seem to have a hard time navigating. Can you put a big link or point me in the right direction on how to refinish cabinets?

    I love all the tools in Angela's shop - reminds me of my dad, who was a carpenter. I especially love the red handled hand saw!

    I just stumbled upon your blog and let me tell you I'm excited! I refinish furniture so I'm always looking for people in the same business that share this love.

    I see you have a giveaway... Please count me in. That little pile of tattered books would go well with another pile of tattered books that I have. I always say buy in threes for decorating purposes.

    I'm going to take a look around your blog now.... and I'll be linking up with you and adding you to my sidebar.

    Hope you are having a wonderful holiday season.

    Blessings,
    Shanna

    LOVELY!! I think those are so pretty together. I'm already a follower at Knick of Time, and now I'll be joining you and your party! I'm linking up with you and will add your party to my Favorite Party list on my sidebar.
    I went to the Knick of Time Etsy shop and fell in love with a number of her items...especially the white pedestal...it would be lovely on my workdesk full of buttons! the nails from the railroad are cool too, but I also liked the vintage advertisements...hmmmm. maybe after the holidays!!!
    Come by and visit!
    Great to find you!
    Blessings, Doni
