<p>[QUOTE=&quot;L0z, post: 208260, member: 3918&quot;]Ha ha I know what you mean, however I should of probably mentioned where I live &#039;ESSEX&#039; which plays a significant role in my method - you see there is a stigma attached to anyone who comes from Essex. (I don&#039;t by the way, I just live here now as it&#039;s a slightly better place than where I was raised in the East End of London!!) Essex is well known for it&#039;s Blonde Women, Range Rover Sports, Handbag Sized Dogs &amp; an Obsession with Aesthetics (if you get my drift) It&#039;s a place where there is money, but is often spent on anything TACKY, BLING, FAKE or just simply for appearance.</p><p><br /></p><p>Shabby Chic in my opinion fits nicely into this criteria, hence it&#039;s exactly the style that people are into. Don&#039;t get me wrong, brown furniture might not be very popular at the moment but rest assured if the furniture I have was more desirable I wouldn&#039;t dream of doing such a thing, but the fact of the matter is, when you are looking at a difference between selling for £100-£200 and £400-£500 by simply adding a lick of paint, I don&#039;t think personal preference comes into it. You go with the market right? Anyway, I won&#039;t be referring to any furniture I may restore this way as &#039;shabby chic&#039; - I will be simply describe it as something along the lines of &#039;Original 1920&#039;s, Modernised....etc etc&#039; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/rolleyes.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie84" alt=":smuggrin:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
