About Shabbyswank

I rarely see anything that I don't want to embellish. Having started as a decorative painter in 1994, I soon developed a passion for re-designing, re-purposing and re-defining vintage furniture and accessories. Little did I know that someone else had already coined the phrase "Shabby Chic" and created a design empire around it...I was just taking ugly old castoffs and making them pretty again.
Working out of my home studio in Ontario, Canada, I have established a popular line of vanities, mirrors and other accessories in the Shabby Chic style as well as a line of retro kitchen ware and one of vintage Paris artwork.

Minor Amusements






So, when the weather gets too cold to work in the garage..... I go looking for "kitchen table projects". Here are a few recent ones. My pal Lisa makes lamps out of anything she can find. I like to fancy-up old junk ones that I find when scrounging. As you will see, I do love crystals....and yes (gasp) I painted milk glass.....get over it !
