Here's a little sneek peek of a piece coming in this weekend!

Fabulous early cupboard...about 6' tall and about 3' wide....four nice deep shelves that would hold a stoneware collection beautifully! Boot jack ends...a North Carolina piece found locally, made of southern yellow pine. Built around 1880-1900 from early architectural pieces dating from 1790 - 1810. Awesome teal blue paint!

That's it for now!!
