HOME MADE DECOR......

                                

These are just a few of the amazing things that my sister Jane created for her home.  Jane took a giant piece of driftwood from the Adirondacks , treated it and made it into a wall centerpiece to great effect. Below is one of the old hutches that Jane acquired. The hutch was from the 1950's and rusted.  Jane took it, sanded it, polished it and painted it a beautiful color combination of powder blue, cream and very light yellow. Jane did this with many antiques, and they always turned out looking brand new, and yet retro at the same time.  I wish that I had taken more photos of Jane's home decorating, but I guess I'm lucky that I took the few that I did.  Jane could have been a wonderful interior designer, ( she was one,  in her own home).  Jane had amassed a huge collection of valuable antiques over the years in Bayonne, and she had a sharp eye for what was worth keeping or not.  I have kept many of them, in her memory.  Thank you for reading our post today.  Love and Light to you
