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.

The Wreath of 2009


It;s been a very long time since I made one of these, they are so labour intensive. And the ones I had did not survive my move from the US. But finding a box of vintage ornaments at Goodwill inspired me to make a new one. I had to go a bit spare on the older ornaments since I don't have many left, but I think it came out just as beautiful. So....off it goes to Kijiji....let's see if Canadians are hip to these babies yet.
