A good friend of mine sent me some images last week. As soon as my eyes gazed upon them, my jaw dropped and I had an instant boost of energy! I just had to share my new found love with you all. It’s a company called Wisteria. I may just be the last one on earth who has heard of them, that seems to happen to me a lot now as I am discovering more and more wonderful creations here in Blog World.
I will share a my favorite painted furniture pieces with you now, but you must mosey on over to their online catalog and enjoy their full line!
Look at these mirrors!
I, of course, especially love the distressed, vintage quality. And you all know how I love turquoise. Oh, I am dying for this mirror!
I literally believe my heart stopped and sang at the same time when I saw this head board. I was so excited, I actually called my husband over to exclaim, “Look at this, is this not so me! Don’t I need this?!?!”
For a moment, he thought I had lost it. But then the sweetie enjoyed my love of all things painted and vintage!
Aren’t these headboards divine as well. I love the hand painted artwork here. These inspired me instantly to grab my artist’s brushes and canvas and work on a little piece.

Oh, I love Wisteria! It’s one of those catalogs that I hold on to or have tear sheets from when I get them. So many great treasures!!!
I can’t wait to see what types of things you create, Melissa, after being inspired by their goodies. Please, paint one of those headboards –either the distressed one or the scenic ones. I just know it would look awesome after you and Jamie added your touch to it.
Here’s to a blessed day!
Hugs,
ME :)

Take heart, you aren’t the last one because I’m not acquainted with Wisteria either. But, I will head over right now.
I don’t know which of your pictures is my favorite - they are all incredible.

That is a really neat headboard! I wish I had more time to go shopping at antique and thrift stores!

Oh my word! I love this beautiful furniture, can’t wait to see your inspired artwork!!!
Thanks for your kind comments on the loss of my friend, I know she is a phone call away, but it is not the same as 8 min. from the house…
Bless you this week, hope it is going well for you!
XO,
