The Ugly Duckling Shabby Chic Boutique

The Ugly Duckling Shabby Chic Boutique Transforming pre-loved furniture from ugly ducklings to beautiful swans.

Once upon a time, in a land not-so-far away, a lady called Carrie was busy setting up her first family home. With a distinct shortage of both furniture and riches, she went forth and sought out pre-loved pieces. With careful preparation, a fresh lick of paint, and a personal finishing touch, she created some beautiful swans out of ugly ducklings. The news of these transformations spread far and wi

de, and the people slowly began to grow curious of how they too could reinvent their own ugly ducklings. So Carrie decided to open her Shabby Chic Boutique - a magical place where people could buy updated one-off pieces, or have their own pieces transformed into something new to treasure forever.

As referenced on pg 40 in the June issue of 'Style at Home' magazine - here's the mini potting table I created out of an old futon bed and a discarded pallet! Perfect height for my toddler to tend to her plants.
