Clients, clients, clients!

Client projects are keeping me busy these days! I will post some pictures of a few sometime soon:) I just love working on someone's personal treasure to give it new life and purpose in their home.

I am also preparing for the next Ross Bridge Fresh Market on the Green which will be this Saturday, July 21st, from 8am-12pm. A special treat this time is that there will be an antique car showing as well, so ladies, your man will have something to do while you shop at the reMERbish tent! Hope to see you there!

This Little Piggy Went to Market

Hey guys! So last week was super busy because of my participation in Ross Bridge's Fresh Market on the Green! It was so fun and I had a blast making new contacts with people, connecting with people I had met through Facebook, and making some sells!:) Here are some pictures from the day. You will also find listed under "Featured Pieces" some new pieces that are still available.

You may not have had a chance to visit and like my Facebook page! Do that if you can...I often post pictures and updates on there faster than I can on the blog.

Also I have several client projects that I'll have pictures of soon! This is a fun part of the business that I didn't expect to be so popular so quickly:) If you have a piece in your house that is in need of some reMERbish love, send to me a picture (mer@remerbish.com) and I'd love to discuss with you the possibilities of giving it new life!

Lastly, I haven't forgotten my posts about my trip to Florida. I came across great people with great stores that I can't wait to share with all of you! Be patient...those are coming:)

Stay tuned!

Just wrapped up the Fresh Market on the Green!! Will be having some posts this week to update you on projects! Check back!

Too Long...But Projects, Projects, Projects

Hey guys!

So sorry! It wasn't my intention to go almost a month without posting some reMERbish projects! I will say though that the past few weeks have been the busiest by far of 2012 for us, so I guess that's my reason/excuse at least;) So it is a miracle that any projects were finsihed at all really...but enough of all of that...here are some pictures! And, by the way, I have been posting on my reMERbish Facebook page pretty regularly, so please "like" the page and you can keep up with projects a little better! I'm up to 73 likes and would LOVE to get to 100! Spread the word!:)

My first client project! A baby crib for a family with three boys...a little prissy is coming and the boys' black crib had to be reMERbished:

Project of the week

Every week I'll try to post something I've worked on. This week I have a couple of things that aren't quite finished yet, but this beauty I did happen to finish up a couple of days ago! I think it can be used in different ways, but I see it as either a tray, used for serving or as a coffee table organizer, or flipped on its back on the wall as a wall shelf for knick-knacks, books, pictures, etc. It is made out of old, distressed wood, with old nails, and is a very unique piece with a lot of character. I did a simple white-washed finish on it. It isn't in my Easy Street booth yet, but will be hopefully at the beginning of the week. Price=$55.

The Girl With the Pink Door

As of Saturday, reMERbish has officially moved into Easy Street Resale! Yay!!! Below you will find some pictures of what the booth looks like and current products.

When my husband and I re-screened our backporch last year, I couldn't find it in me to throw away our rather tired screen door. I said, "Let's just throw it in the garage--I'll use it for something someday!" So when it came around to figuring out a sign for reMERbish, it hit me! The old door would be perfect! So I repurposed it by simply painting the frame [no other color but pink was appropriate;)], installing a chalkboard on top, and stapling fabric behind the wire grid. I thought the wire griding would be great to use as a memo board at some point too by using clothespins to clip on pictures, announcements, etc. This once-determined trash, has become a beautiful treasured item for the booth! So, yeah, if I become known as "the girl with the pink door," I won't mind it at all!:)

Setting up shop...

So welcome to reMERbish! It is crazy to me that we are where we are right now. As soon as I can, I'll be writing the whole process out, but for now, I thought I'd give you a glimpse into my garage! This is my little workshop where all the reMERbish magic will happen;)

Looks chaotic and a little piled up? Well, yes, it certainly is, but hey, it makes sense to me! Thank you for showing interest in my newly formed business! Stay tuned--It promises to be an adventure for sure! If you have a second, leave a comment to tell me how you found my business--I'd love to hear from you! And if you are interested, become a follower and you can be a part of this journey with me! If you click through the different pages across the top of the home page, you'll be able to find out a little more of what the company is about and what you can expect to find. I should be setting up my booth at Easy Street Resales in Pelham over the weekend, so if you are in that area, check it out! Thank you!
