Do ya’ll remember when you were little and it seemed to take like six years for Christmas to get here? Especially this year, I straight up blinked and Christmas is less than a week away. I want to take a minute to wish every single one of ya’ll a very Merry Christmas . I hope you can slow down and spend lots of time with your family and friends and just revel in this wondrous and magical season of the year. And that is actually what Big Daddy and I will be doing:) You guys mean so very much to me and I thank ya’ll for being my friend and confidant .
Now…….. on to todays’s victim …….. and she is a beaut!
This was not a pretty piece on Facebook Marketplace ya’ll.
But……. the price was beautiful.
It did come with amazing original hardware, a length of almost 6 feet and GOBS of storage.
It also came with a small brass surprise.
The guy who I bought it from helped me shoe horn it in to my Murano and just as I was saying thank you and goodbye he laid a brass key in the palm of my hand.
The key was attached to a different, quite understated tassel.
I procured a Paige Style tassel, as ya’ll can see.
Nobody’s missing that thing.
I chose Fusion Mineral Paint’s Bayberry Green for this piece. The top is stained in Minwax Jacobean. The drawer liner has yet to be determined.
Years ago, every Christmas I would bring home an Amaryllis bulb in a plastic pot in the hopes of having it in the middle of my Christmas dinner party tablescape. Some years it worked and some years not so much. This year on the day after Thanksgiving I walked in to Walmart like I was going to war and sure as hell there was BIG muti level metal rolling shelves FULL of them. I grabbed 2 red ones (also in plastic pots) and headed to my car. As luck would also have it………. I stuck my head in Ross Dress For Less and found these pots for $4 each!
The fox in the snow I found on Etsy as a instant download. I had it printed at Officemax to fit a 24 x 36 inch frame . He normally hangs in our dining room and will be there all Winter long.
He is just so beautiful ya’ll.
Merry Christmas !
Paige

The bayberry green is the perfect choice for this nice, classic piece, along with the top, the tassel, the brilliant crimson amaryllis bulbs and the handsome fox. Thanks for sharing this and all the fun projects you’ve shared this year.
A very Merry Christmas to you and Big Daddy (and the kitties, of course), and best wishes for a safe, healthy and happy new year, too!
