Making something old, new again

Amanda Bachelder has always loved the vintage look. Clad in a flowing white shirt, jeans, hand-painted boots and toting a custom tool box with bejeweled handle, she looks very much the part of modern mixed with yesterday. "I fell in love with the shabby chic look," she said. "I would buy furniture at garage sales, and paint layers of white paint for that look. I love that style."
