What I’m Working On…| Early 1900’s Eastlake Style Settee

March 9, 2015 by Terry

This week I will be sharing bits and pieces of a project I have been working on.  It is a beautiful Eastlake Style settee and it is going to be so lovely when it is finished.  I am so excited about this project.  I have never done a settee before but have always wanted to.

Here is how it looked when it came to me…
