Episode update + Tea Time Livestream this Sunday at 5:00PM! EST 3/26/23
Added 2023-03-24 18:47:21 +0000 UTCHello!!
I hope you are doing well! I have tackled some big projects before and I think this latest one is going to be my Mt Everest! I've been working on the finishings and now the furniture for the guest room, which has evolved into its own thing!
So this month's episode will feature how I've constructed a grand Victorian canopy bed frame by Frankensteining two facebook marketplace beds into one and will finish with my FIRST trip to the NYC garment district! There I found all of the velvet, lace and trim that this opulent room will require!
I'm Holding off on the room reveal episode until everything is finished, because of anything I've ever done before, this is honestly probably my very favorite!!
This Sunday we can catch up over tea and I'll be talking about the room and giving an exciting update on the printing of both my wallpaper patterns!
Can't wait to see you!
-Christine

2023-03-26 22:00:19 +0000 UTCAre we not going to talk about the man creeping in the background?
Maria Gress
2023-03-26 21:51:31 +0000 UTCFor you to say this is the biggest thing you have ever tackled has me giddy with anticipation! I'm remembering some of your past projects (changing the facade of your parents house for Halloween, the Winchester Gingerbread House, transforming the couch, the owl cabinet, ect...) and with those in mind, I can't even imagine what you would consider a "Mount Everest " project. I can't wait for this! π

2023-03-26 17:36:15 +0000 UTCThis is such a great idea. Iβve been refinishing so much furniture lately and what better detail to add than some Christine creations?
Desiree Celeste
2023-03-26 08:24:48 +0000 UTCSo glad you got to experience NYC's garment district. You must have felt like a kid in a candy store. Anxious to see how the canopy bed turned out. See you tomorrow!

Camilla Hageberg
2023-03-24 22:08:13 +0000 UTCSo sad to miss the live again (I teach Sunday evenings), but I'll catch the recording later and have my tea in your honor then. I can't wait to see what you do with the bed. I have a canopy bed with curtains, but I'm sure you'll inspire me to upgrade, as always.
Mina Murray
2023-03-24 22:04:54 +0000 UTCI'm going to try to make it this time I always seem to forget. I end up watch it after the live is done.

2023-03-24 21:54:37 +0000 UTCChristine definitely teaches us patience whether we like it or not. But then everything she does is just magic.π€©π
Sarah Cortez
2023-03-24 21:14:42 +0000 UTCLove everything you do, but I am especially excited for this canopy bed you speak of!
Melissa Kerns
2023-03-24 20:20:15 +0000 UTCCan't wait to see what you make!! I'm picturing you grunging-up the lace via airbrush to suit whatever the theme is... underwater algae? Black rot? Rust stained? Or perhaps eleglantly shimmering to catch the light of candles with real gold thread embroidery. I love that I never know whether your project will be gruesome, elegant, gothic, or cute!
