Five Star Frou-Frou #47...

Paint an old dresser with a mirror black and add glass knobs for an old Hollywood look and feel in our master bedroom! @GrandmasHousDIY 
 
Hi everyone and welcome to Five Star Frou-Frou, where we share all sorts of froth and prettiness. I hope you'll enjoy this weeks features!
 
This week I've chosen a few glam projects. I fancy a bit of glamour in my life and these all really appeal to my sense of drama and style!
 
First off, is Tarah's fabulous dresser makeover. How refreshing to see something glossy and black and fabulous. I do love the French Provincial look, but something about this striking piece really caught my eye. Thanks Tarah!
 
Burlap decorated Vintage Tread Spool scissor holder
 
Next I chose Tammy's Vintage Desk Accessories.
 
Again, the stark palette, is soothing and yet stylish at the same time. 
 
Finally, Dawn used a favourite standby of mine, a bit o' metallic gold, to glam up an old umbrella stand. Love it!

Five Star Frou-Frou #46...

Hello all, and welcome to Five Star Frou-Frou!
This week, Amy from A Day of Small Things was a runaway with the tally for most clicks. She showcased her divine collection of vintage patchwork quilts. I don't know about you, but I am green with envy!
Three coats of white paint made the old cabinets look new and a carefully selected tile allowed us to keep the old counter tops in order to stay within budget. | A Chat Over Coffee
 Next in line was Leigh from A Chat Over Coffee. Leigh has been renovating and the results speak for themselves. Clean lines, and a new elegant look for her kitchen, all on a budget.

And finally, Gina at Victorian Wanna Be shared her stunning collection of replica Titanic dinnerware and genuine Titanic flatware. I think for any of us, the memories of the lives lost on the Titanic, remains a poignant one. I found myself wanting to reach out and touch the plates and beautiful silverware to see what stories they would tell. How special.

Thanks to all for sharing, and please make certain to make our guest features feel special by visiting and commenting.

Five Star Frou-Frou #37...love and life...

http://wvpanoply.blogspot.com.au/2016/02/love-letters-from-greatest-generation.html 
Welcome to this weeks edition of Five Star Frou-Frou.
 
Valentines Day brought some beautiful links and I thank you all. I had a terrible time choosing features this week, so that can only be a good thing, right? The standard of everyones' posts was absolutely fabulous. 
 
In the end, how could I go past Rita from Panopoly's recounting of her Fathers love letters to her Mother during the war. Heartwarming doesn't begin to describe this post. I defy you not to cry. Please click on the image above to take you there.

Leigh at A Chat over Coffee also brought tears to my eyes with her tutorial on silk corsages that she distributes to the widows and widowers in her church congregation on Valentines Day. Just beautiful.
 
And finally, Annabel's beautiful pink, heart shaped soaps, embedded with rosebuds, were perfect for Valentines gift giving. You have to see what else Annabel got up to as well. Stunning!
