Limitless


Before



After

This piece has "limitless" potential.  
It is a desk that converts into a table with the four leaves that are included.  
It is painted a soft cream and sage green, with a hint of distressing and glaze. 

Perfect for a craft or toy room.  
Imagine spreading out for a weekend of scrapbooking, 
then closing it up to conserve space.   The three drawers offer a ton of storage.  

This piece is available for purchase at Not Too Shabby in the Gateway Mall. 
This store is a little treasure in the heart of Bismarck...
look what I bought today! 

Perfect with a white tee, jeans and my flip-flops! 
You must go check out her vintage cowboy boots...none fit me.   



Hot in Pink


Isn't this cool?  We love this hot pink 2 tiered retro table...  if you love it, please make your way to "Not Too Shabby" in Gateway Mall or contact us @ greenbriargoods@hotmail.com with any questions!  To really appreciate this transformation, scroll down a bit on our blog to see it's "before"!

I'm Seeing Green


Thanks Heather for the bunnies...
I love them and the punch of color they added to my coffee table.  

I'd like to say they inspired our color selection 
for the side table pictured below, but they did not...
this idea came from Beth at Not Too Shabby in the Gateway Mall.  


My lighting was not the best, but this is a 
striking lime green color with slight distressing and glazing.  

It will be available for purchase at Not Too Shabby on Thursday...unless my oldest son hides it in his closet (he wants to keep this REALLY bad).  

Thanks for visiting our blog.

Current Projects


A couple unique side tables...at least one of them is going to be painted a lime green!  Plus two drawers from an impressive hutch.  


A sturdy desk that is the perfect size.  
The top is being left natural, but the base has a new layer of paint 
and we are planning on adding a few decorative details to the drawers. 


This is a very unique piece...it is a desk and a table.  The leaves come out and it squeezes together to make a desk...perfect for a toy room, craft room, scrapbooking...still waiting on a color choice.  Any ideas?  

These are all items that are being custom finished for Beth at 
Not Too Shabby in the Gateway Mall...
we hope to have them there by the weekend.  

Happy shopping!

Distressed...Big Time


This table looks great!  

We love the heavy distressing and the "dirty" look that we gave this table.  
It is very unique and versatile...plus, it is available for purchase at 
Not Too Shabby in the Gateway Mall.  

Open Thursday thru Saturday from 10-6 and Sundays 12-5

Amazing


Before

Not Too Shabby



Not Too Shabby
Gateway Mall, Bismarck ND
Owner ~ Beth 



It has been an exciting couple of days for us at Green Briar Goods!  
Beth from Not Too Shabby in the Gateway Mall, Bismarck, ND contacted us about doing some custom projects for her shop. Beth has a number of great pieces that she would like us to transform. When our projects are complete, she will be putting them back on the sales floor with a totally different look!  We can't wait to start on these fun pieces & very fun color choices that Beth has made!  Look closely at the "before" pictures, because these pieces will be all glammed up when we're finished!  

Here are the before pictures:  


Hutch 


Dresser with Mirror


Vanity with Mirror

We also will be doing a desk, table and a smaller hutch.  

Look for these items in the next few weeks at 
Not Too Shabby in the Gateway Mall or on our blog.

My Little Distraction


I was reading through some of my favorite blogs yesterday and stumbled across some great garland ideas...so, having nothing else to do (whatever) I pulled out my bin of scrapbooking supplies and finally put them to use.  




Need a distraction?  Give it a try...all you need is some ribbon, twine or string, 
some cardstock, scrapbooking letters and a hole punch. 
A tag punch came in handy, but any shape of paper would work.  

Have fun.
