Upcycled Furniture

I have been searching for inspiration to do up an old bureau that I own...which led to doing my folksy friday post this week. Whilst looking online I came across some gorgeous items, which I thought I would share with you.





There's some clever people out there. I'm not sure how my bureau will turn out, I've put it off and off, but it needs to be done....so seeing as its a new year I will get my act together!!

Folksy Friday

After a very relaxing christmas break, I thought it was time to feature a new folksy friday....but what to focus on? The start of a new year is often a time for 'out with the old, in with the new', but I thought perhaps its time for a change....so this week I am focusing on updating the old ....so here are a few of my upcycling finds on folksy from some clever people.


Old Shabby School Desk from The Rambling Rose

Shabby Chic Renaisance Style Chair from Frederick Designs

Decorative Table from Revive

Upcycled Coasters from The Doll House

Gypsy Red Chair from ButtonFly Furniture

So check out folksy for these and other great things...
