Clawfoot tub to French Chaise!

Jasmin Marisett, contributor | April 8th, 201311 comments

Of course I have seen Breakfast at Tiffanys and my hat goes off to the original tub couch creator! However, I of COURSE have to add my spin!I though long and hard about simply taking the front out to make it a love seat, but .. then .. when do I do things the simple way? It needed that added flare and I am re finishing a clients bedroom to feel french, so it was a MUST to have curves. Voila the new Chaise for her master bedroom bay window!

YOU-Nique Sleigh Bed

Jasmin Marisett, contributor | July 26th, 201213 comments

This beauty was too gorgeous to let sit in someones garden and rot away even more! Gypsy Barn to the rescue!! When I found this baby at an Estate Sale, I sat and watched people snubbing their nose at her :( *sadness* The family of the owner of this piece told me about what an heirloom this was and they were so sad they didn't have use for it.... that fueled me to create that use! I think everyone looked at me like I was crazy for paying the price I did and then paying more to have her shipped to my front door! But I saw it in its completion from the first second our eyes locked in a loving embrace! * can you hear the romantic music as we run to each other through a white haze filled meadow to embrace * LOL! I LOVE HER!
