Debut: Riverbed

Heading up to Washington for the open house at LaFavorites where pieces from Turnstyle Vogue are being featured!  Then, back to Oregon tonight for a very busy weekend ahead...lots of family, volleyball game (GO ERYN!),  Duck game (GO DUCKS!), haunted corn maze, wine barrel hunting, pumpkin patch, football game (GO JOEY!), family dinner and most likely something else I'm forgetting. 


I thought I'd end the week with another furniture feature.  Meet Riverbed....

RIVERBED


Before...


Clamps....glue.... (kinda like a surgeon, right?)



Reminds me of this....
  


Corner brackets added.  Pretty standard Turnstyle Vogue, right?


All original hardware. 





She's got curves!




I'm in love with the color.  Looks like slate.  Rock.  A riverbed.


Cool color mix, eh??! Hope you like it as much as I do. 

See you all on Monday.  If I'm not here, send a search party and tell them to start at the haunted corn maze.

  36. Hi Shari, what a fabulous job you did with that piece of furniture. Something to be very proud of. Thanks for sharing.

  37. What colors did you use for this? What was the technique? Thanks so much. dawnh@cox.net

  38. Riverbed is awesome! Are you willing to share the products you used? After you repaired the corner, did you paint the top or just clean/buff it up? I found you through Kammy's Korner. Elaine

  39. Just gorgeous! I DO love the color mix...and the distressing. Great job, Shari.
