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 Next Project




Upon completion of the table, I decided to work on something from my reserve pile. "Oh yes!!" said I. That pressback rocker will look wonderful painted! And as I pulled it out from the corner and hoisted it onto the workbench....there it was.....a broken leg. So the challange, as usual, is greater than originally thought but I move on un-daunted. Stay tuned.
