We also have many ideas at our store, The Camellia, at 30, Hacquoil Rd. Slate River. Here is one of our yard sale finds, a metal chandy, it's waiting around to get fixed up and put to use as a store prop. You can see it being part of a Vintage Wedding photo shoot.

A pair of wooden shutters waiting to get cleaned up and painted with Cottage Paint, which we sell here at The Camellia. It's going to be some shade from our water-based palette - blues, aqua, turquoise and driftwood. Going to add character to a Coastal look in a staircase.

Finding an old brick wall in your building is like hitting a small gold mine, it adds so much patina to a room., or you can paint a brick wall with our Urban line of #CottagePaint. Head into our store, The Camellia to see our metallic sample chart. Click on this link for more information: http://www.cottagepaint.com/UrbanPaint.html

Old typewriters make a great addition to a study or Office area. We have this beauty for sale in our shop. It would be lovely in a Wedding ceremony on the signing table. 

Old frames add an antique touch to a modern Bathroom. Look at the mirror on the wall, this is the  before of the white mirror in the front, its original finish in an Antique Gold. The frame in the front has been painted with Cottage Paint, giving it a fresh, clean look.
