We bought a second home - a 100 acre ranch in Stringtown, OK. When we purchased the property we had not even seen the back two bedrooms. New carpet and paint really spruced the place up for our weekend country house. Not to mention the job I did with the kitchen cabinets. Eventually I will replace the counter tops - but it's fine for now...I wanted a French botanical style, and had to have the signature roosters to complete my French Country Kitchen.
The table and chairs I got for $50.00 at a re-sale boutique, and I refinished the set in an almond color and upholstered them in a Schumaker fabric and trim. Finding this diamond in the rough made me want to "go green" for the rest of the house. It was surprisingly easy to do and I can't believe how inexpensive it was. The only furniture I recycled from our Frisco home was the leather sofa, the rest of the furniture in the house I bought and re-upholstered myself with fabrics and trim I already had.
I included the before and afters...
Bonjour!

Hi Holly, I really like what you've done with your house...and we are in the process of getting our own house in Cumming that would need redecorating at a cheapest price possible because the house is rather big and we are comfortable but not that wealthy at all...nevertheless I was wondering if you would help us redecorate this house and could work together? I like your tastes, and I like the farm like decoration with flowers, wood, the 1940s style, the cosy one... How much do you charge for your services? IIImagicxx@aol.com
