I woke up one morning last year and the first thing that popped into my head were the words “The Painted Drawer”. Â After all these years, the idea to turn my love of paint and vintage finds into something.
My mother and I used to spend countless hours at estate sales. Â This was when estate sales were actually fun and there were still deals to be had. Â I find them all a little pricey these days. Â I bought this sweet little spindle bed about a decade ago at a house sale with my mother. I spent a few days painting it on our back porch and made it my little Sophie’s bed…
When I painted this little bed the only way to have advertised it was a print ad in the local paper. Â I had not even heard of Craigslist! Â Now, of course, we have social media and online selling. Â How lucky are we for the ability to wake up, have an idea for a business pop into our head and get it out there!
To advertise and grow and have it become something real. It is what I hope for The Painted Drawer and I thank you all for reading this and helping me along the way ð
