This is my first blog about the home I hope one day to create. At the moment, I am starting from scratch, living in an apartment in Atlanta GA. I'm a student, but I hope one day to be a high school teacher. I am married, my husband is a high school teacher at an inner city school, and he is just the "bee's knees". I'm 21 years old, my name is Michelle, and this is my story (hehehe, I always wanted to say that).
I love antiques, shabby chic, from the early 1900s late 1800s. I love history, in general, so to surround myself with it, makes me probably one of the happiest girls ever. I don't have very many (if any) antiques yet, my father thinks they should all be refinished, etc, I love them distressed, and full of the flaws that give them a story, a life of their own. I made my first purchase EVER yesterday, I dunno if they are really antiqued, or not, but they are pretty. I got three tea cups for two dollars, and I just love them I am currently trying to upload pictures so that you all will have a good idea. I will post them in another post.
I have also gotten a few things from Freecycle (which is just about my favorite way to find new to me treasures and pass on things that I can no longer get use of) I will also be putting pictures of those things in that...
