Why did I have to be born with the desire to change things? I buy forlorn furniture from France and bring it back to life in a new and different way, giving it some 21st century chic. However on my buying trips to the brocantes of France I have to chain my cash down to stop myself from buying pieces that need no work on them. They are always the pieces that show their history in charming and unexpected ways.
