Restore & After

If you've missed me lately it's not because I haven't been around. Quite the opposite actually. This is prime time for Family Portraits and that is exactly why Fall is one of my favorite times of the year. I LOVE being busy with Fall Family Photo Shoots! :)

This fall, I am also honored to participate in Habitat for Humanity's "Restore & After." What is "Restore & After?" Well, I'm glad you asked! This is an event where 'local artists, schools and other community members help rehabilitate furniture and other decorative items that can then be auctioned off!' I was flattered, to say the least, when my buddy, Eric, asked me to redo a piece of my own to be auctioned off for the cause.

This is the lucky guy that is currently being rehabilitated. This is an original Singer sewing stool that instantly caught my eye at a local antique store. With a lot of love and a little elbow grease, I'll have this stool restored in no time! In fact, I worked on him this Saturday a bit and took pictures of the process...stay tuned for another blog on the before and after.



Not only will this stool be auctioned off but many other fabulous finds like this one from my oh so talented friend, Cara Wilkerson. Check out her rehabilitation station for more fun projects! And while you're swooning over her website, take a look at her stool rehab, which is the inspiration for my little Singer stool redo! I can't wait to show y'all the finished project!

I will also have a booth at this event displaying some of my photography. Stop by my booth to enter for you chance to win a FREE PHOTO SHOOT! See you there!
