Photo does not do justice….
This chandelier was once a typical… shiny….. brass piece that’s been seen in every hotel, house and restaurant across the Country! Yes…. it’s true.
Many up-cyclers have been spray painting these for years….. re-inventing there look and of course…. improving it. I myself have used every possible spray paint color on them!
But this….. this is absolutely gorgeous!!!!!!!!!!!! It’s my new obsession this week! I feel like I’ve finally mastered this galvanized look! Yaaa me! And mixed with the French crystals…….. it’s a perfect fit for that French Industrial look.
I promise to take a better photo once this one is installed. The room it’s going in is flooded with natural light and I’m sure will make a much prettier setting. Then you should be able to see the different layers and textures.

Deck the Halls!
These oyster shell candle holders are each hand made and one of a kind! They’re the perfect gift for those on your list who live near the beach…. or the ones who wish they were! Either way….. you can’t go wrong!
The list of gifts for our Holiday Boutique on Thursday, December 15th is growing daily…. as well as our “in house” gifts from local artists. If you’re into recycling and being green…. give an antique jewelry box…. a piece of art made from reclaimed wood…. a gift certificate to CHARTREUSE, etc.

The mall doesn't offer an option like this!
This is a beautiful quote, hand painted on an antique crate. I made this one for a client who goes out of her way to give personal gifts with a message; a message that clearly states …… “I thought about you…..I didn’t just go out and grab a gift!”

Well, intrigue in whats behind the closed doors of my studio has been the buzz at CHARTREUSE……. So I decided to let everyone see what I’m working on…….. even pieces that haven’t be touched yet. I have had an amazing first week but I have to tell you….. I sold a good bit from THE VAULT!
Starting today I am adding a page that will be titled “THE VAULT” and you can regularly check it out and see what’s going on in the studio. You can post ideas and questions. You can even purchase before it makes it to the floor! I hope you enjoy, Cindy!
