[free]day

i love finding pieces.

and i love the transformation of

a piece.

there is so much beauty in watching

a forgotten & unwanted piece evolve

into something treasured and loved. 

oh, and i love getting my hands dirty.

i pretty much love what i have been able

to do for the last year. love it.

here are 

this week's 

[free]day

items

lady sadie

mr. everette

linus

ms. mae

i love the unique qualities 

of each piece.

i just love them.

but i say that about every piece.

it's true though. really.

and just wait until next week's

lost&found. 

they look even better now...

i hope you have a spectacular weekend.

my weekend is going to consist of 

celebrating the lives of two adorable red-headed

boys & the marriage of beautiful friends on saturday,

and then painting, eating, gardening, resting, and loving on sunday.

i am down to my last week before the

next flea market so it is going to be a full week. 

see you tuesday!

hello friends!

i have missed you.

sorry i haven't been around much

this week.

the weather has not really

allowed for much

gardening

(rain, frost, & then hot sun)

at some point the weather

is going to have to figure it out

and decide it wants to celebrate

spring.

that way, mr. amazing and i can

actually begin prepping soil and

getting our garden ready

for vegetables, fruit and herbs...

and our compost

(ps: the city we live in

actually provides the materials for free!

check your city to see if they 

offer classes or free composting

materials)

okay,

so here is

today's

lost & found

last week's {free}day pieces

are now beauties.

sable

lost

found

florence

lost

and, found

i love them.

and lee is almost

done. 

he has been a bit more work

than i anticipated

(well, and i haven't had much

time to work on pieces the last few days)

i have so much to work on this weekend and next week

since disregard{en} is going to be

at the melrose trading post 

april 17th (yay!)

oh, and mr. amazing and i bought

a new car on sunday!

his name is parker the prius.

he is charcoal grey.

he gives us great gas mileage

and makes us feel better about

all the driving we do.

and, he is going to help

haul furniture for disregard{en}

with his hatchback amazingness.

maybe i'll take a photo of our new addition

tomorrow.

(when i told my mom i had some

exciting news, i had to warn her it

wasn't a baby. bahaha!)

i hope you had a wonderful thursday!

                     .jessnicole.

[free]day

it's friday friday friday.

fun fun fun

{if you haven't heard that song,

type in rebecca black on youtube. 

mr. amazing found it and showed it to me. }

okay, now for the purpose of this blog...

new free pieces! 

{or semi-free}

sable

florence

and 

lee

{who was so big i could not

even photograph him

in my normal spot!}

i know. aren't they great?!

it has been so fun finding 

pieces for the flea market

and clients.

if you are looking for anything specific,

let me know. mr. amazing is amazing 

(i know)

at finding pieces. 

when i say 

'i need a dresser and two bedside tables for a client' 

he will literally come home 

a few days 

later (at the most) 

with those things - found at great prices

or free. 

he's perfect for me.

sigh.

i hope you enjoy your lovely weekend.

mine is going to consist 

of cleaning and organizing our home,

spending time with family on saturday evening,

and a tour of los angeles with

a friend on sunday.

add some food and beer in the mix

(and maybe some running. cough cough)

and it will be the perfect weekend.

oh, and some painting & gardening hopefully.

cannot wait to see you next week!

love...

how is it thursday already?

i guess it is almost friday

now that i look at the time...

well, today didn't turn out

exactly how i planned.

i ended up having 

a teeny tiny surgery 

(& got three stitches)

so i couldn't work on any

pieces today.

(don't worry, i just

got a mole removed. i know.

i am very brave. & i am sure

you really wanted to know. ha)

thankfully, i had other things to do

and worked inside today.

but, it was so gorgeous outside

i wish i could have painted and sanded...

well, these four pieces

were last week's {free}day.

this week, they are found.

and lovely.

go to my etsy shop. or email me

at disregardener@gmail.com

hope you had a lovely (and warm)

thursday.

can't wait to show you some new

free finds tomorrow.

good night sweet friends.

                    .jessnicole.

poor man's gard{en}

the sun has finally decided

to show itself again.

which means gardening

can now begin.

but since the sun

hid last week,

mr. amazing and i 

did not get a chance

to work on our little garden.

 we did get to sell

at the flea market

this past sunday.

there was a heavy drizzle

(more like light rain)

in the morning but it finally

(and thankfully)

cleared up around noon.

and we had so much fun.

we made some new friends

and great connections,

drank horchata,

listened to music

and got some sun.

here are some photos 

to share with those of you who

couldn't stop by

 and, disregard{en} is now

officially a

regular vendor

at the melrose trading post!!

come visit us

every third sunday of the month!!!!

hope you enjoyed your tuesday lovely 

friends.

[free]day

phew. today has been an

insane day.

not horrible. just crazy.

there is always more to do

than you anticipate.

well, in the midst

of a super full day,

i couldn't forget 

this week's

[free]day

these pieces are technically

already made new and loved on.

but they are new finds,

nonetheless.

here they are. 

{murrie}

{ms. addie}

{margaret}

{jacqueline}

come see the finished version of each piece

 at the melrose trading post

this sunday, march 27th.

we'll be there all day.

with music, smiles and some

horchata 

(from one of the food vendors. not us. 

there is not enough time to make horchata.

at least not this time around. ha.)

have a wonderful weekend friends.

i hope to see you all on sunday.

if not, i will definitely see

you early next week.

love.

i have somehow

managed to get work done

despite the rain. 

i'm getting clever 

with the space my creative studio

provides

 (aka my garage)

you should see the space.

full of over forty pieces. some

finished, some halfway, & others

still lost.

i know, forty.

not including the fact 

that our garage is also

our laundry room,

pseudo dart room, & storage space

for our stuff (including a piano).

so imagine tiny little me painting

and sanding away under the roof of my

garage while it is pouring rain.

yes.

i know.

i am a determined woman.

i will have each and every piece done

and ready to sell this sunday...

two weeks ago 

(when it wasn't raining)

i had a chance to finish these beauties.

they were last week's

[free]day. 

now, they are 

lost&found
