I have a trunk like this and need to do that same. Thanks for the inspiration!

Why do we have this need to ‘clean stuff up.’ The trunk has character and tells a tale. It’s all been sanitised by a tacky characterless fabric.

I loved the country flower bouquets. They were unique, chic, and classy, but yet still felt slightly country, yet non-intimidating. I also loved seeing john robshaw’s new linens! well done!

What an amazing transformation. The trunk looks great and what a fun textile choice for the lining!

Love it! I really like this series in general. It promotes recycling, which I do with clients furnishings they no longer need or want. Very green. Very nice.

Well Done! I had a bit of a freak out when I saw the ‘during’ photo and thought to myself, “Oh no! She’s going to paint that beautiful trunk”, but the surprise was well worth it. Respectfully restored and with a quirky detail on the inside. :) I cant wait to see what more things you do.
