This week has been full of great vintage karma -- not the least of which was American Picker Mike Wolfe responding to my Facebook comment regarding the recent infestation of vintage dress forms. Now if I could just get George Clooney to notice me, life would be complete.
But even better than that -- yesterday our zinc table makeover was featured on Design*Sponge!
Design*Sponge is a daily website dedicated to home and product design, and was declared a “Martha Stewart Living for the Millennials”. It features store and product reviews, city, product, and gift guides, diy projects, before & after furniture and home makeovers, recipes, and more!
It's like the artsy equivalent of having your book promoted by Oprah. Without all of the couch-jumping.
And even though I inadvertently got all of the credit, Mr. VJIMT is sort of famous! How cool is that?
I answered some of the comments on the Design*Sponge site, but for those of you who wanted more information, we purchased the adhesive, solution, and zinc sheets from http://www.rotometals.com.
So cool! I hope you'll still hang out with us at Bouckville, now that you're moving up in the world and all ....

Congrats! I'm going to be telling everyone that I "know" you. They don't have to know that it's only through your blog!
