So much chic!

I was torn between keeping these or not! I just adore the slight chippyness and old world feel of these accent tables. Oh the places I could put them in my house. But I can just see them in a tweens bedroom, a place to lay a diary or to drop the days jewelry. Maybe a sparkling bedside lamp and a good book.

I put so much thought into decorating these tables, can you tell? Hope that they find a great home and a very appreciative new owner who will love them as much as I have!

Tables are 17" tall and 18x18 square. I am selling them for $45 each, obo.

First is my pink and black creation. I so wanted to create something that was "Tween" either for a little girl or the little girl in us moms!






My second creation is in Purple and Silver. This is definitely more of a teen and up table, with a little bit of industrial with the silver wrapping and bling!








Yummy Crafty Fun!

Cleaned up beautifully - Sold!

I have absolutely looved loved loved this clock since my mother gave it to me many moons ago. However with changing to a rustic southwestern shabby chic look, the retro clock just doesn't match.

This clock keeps wonderful time. I have tightened all the wood rays up, as well as used all natural beeswax on the teak and polished to a gorgeous candle sheen. It made it harder to part with, let me tell you! I took a cloth to the clock face, but didn't want to polish away the rust patina, I have always felt that it added to the funky look. Hopefully the next owner will feel the same.

I am unable to even find this design anywhere online! I found a thumbnail of one that sold back in 2008, but I figured I would err on the side of low. Every other Elgin clock with the same dimensions, age, and style as well as in working condition were going for over $150!

Measurements are
Teak Rays - 8 1/2"
Clock as a whole from top of ray at 12, to bottom of ray at 6. - 25"
Clock face - 7 1/8"
There are a total of 12 teak wood rays and 12 brass balls on a brass circle frame.
