Princess Chalkboard -SOLD


It is really the only way to describe this piece.  The pink frame has a beautiful gold peeking through highlighting the intricate carved details.  Sure it screams girls room but I think it would be beautiful in a dining room as well.

It's Here! Chalk Paint for all!

My first shipment of Webster's Chalk Paint Powder just arrived today!  I have used several brands and many types of paint.  I really like using chalk paint which eliminates the need for most surface preparation but found it very expensive and the colors limiting. I was also concerned about the toxicity of some brands. Then I came upon Websters.   This all-natural powder is added to any paint to create a smooth easy to use chalk paint finish. It is much more economical and I can use any color I want, including paint I already have!  Because you can mix as little as a cup at a time you can even use those sample jars available everywhere.  Get yours at Estrella the gift store at Five Star in Rocklin, CA  916-315-0555.

A Fancy Throne-SOLD

Really so much more than a chair this hand carved vintage beauty stands on it's own.  The Creamy ivory color and beautiful carvings on the back and legs make it a show stopper.  It is finished in a hand rubbed wax finish with a new linen seat.
