UPDATE - GIVEAWAY With AllStrungOutJewelry EXTENDED

So....I think everyone in the wonderful PNW realized that summer arrived today (and maybe only today), and tried to catch every last Ray. Since this is the majority of my fans, I am EXTENDING THE GIVEAWAY! Lucky you!!! The Giveaway with AllStrungOutJewelry will now be open until Monday at 1:00pmPST. Winner announced in the evening of the 8th.












Hello friends!  It's a good day to be at RustiChic with Laureen from AllStrungOutJewelry. I found her etsy shop after falling in love with some vintage typewriter jewelry from my recent trip to Walla Walla. And Laureen has a great selection of amazing, custom pieces!











She has been making jewelry for over 14 years, which is created with the highest quality natural gemstone beads, artisan lampwork beads, solid sterling silver, vintage finds, and the best stringing materials.  The keys that she uses for her typewriter key jewelery (that I love SO much) are from old, non-repairable machines that would end up in the trash.  I love that what she does is make old things new - reminding me of my love of refinishing discarded furniture!

I would love for you to become a fan of RustiChic!

Linking Up At Miss Mustard Seed!

It is becoming quite the theme that I'd like to keep everything I re-do!
Like this Lane Cedar Chest.


GREAT interior (I can't believe it still had tags attached!)



This was just SO much fun for me...having two little girls especially. I imagine storing blankets for winter at the end of their beds (which I made because of the wonderful Ana White!)


GREAT interior (I can't believe it still had tags attached!)

So, details...this cedar chest is a Lane Sweetheart Cedar Chest in just beautiful condition. Updated with bun feet, high end Christie Brinkley eco-friendly fabric (LOVE this fabric-need to make comforters for my girls!), and a layered glaze finish (creamy paint with base honeydew glaze follow by a custom taupe glaze on top). Lightly clear coated for minimal protection and to allow for natural distressing. It is very shabby chic, country, or french depending on it's surroundings.

Great for an entryway or end of bed...but even though this is my little hobby,
I think I might keep this treasure!



Such pretty little nooks and crannies!
The before was dark "old" brown with casters and thin padded black leather top.
 Not very fitting for the feminine details (imo). :-)

I hope you have enjoyed taking a look!

I can't wait to see who wins!

Enjoy the sunshine,

Sorry for the mass big pict. and link problem my iPad actually can't do everything I always want it too! But isn't it a great piece! I'm getting my computer back from being cleaned out which will definitely help things go much more smoothly around here!


Thanks again and check back on Saturday for the Giveaway!
