Giving furniture a unique second chance at life, one piece at a time

11/08/2026

We are so excited to have A Star Bright fill our space with her beautiful art!

A Star Bright brings a touch of coastal charm to every home with a beautiful collection of handcrafted shell art, decorative frames, plaques, and home décor. Elise’s delicately hand-painted shells are the heart of her collection, featuring soft coastal blues and greens alongside lovely shades of pink, coral, and other seaside-inspired hues. Each piece is thoughtfully created with intricate detail, blending natural beauty, artistry, and a personal touch.

Behind A Star Bright is Elise, whose love of creating Christmas art and personal faith inspired the name - a nod to the brilliant star of that first Christmas night and the hope and joy it represents. Originally from Lake Norman, NC, Elise relocated to the coast to be closer to family, and she has embraced the natural beauty of her new surroundings and woven it into her creations.

*Custom orders are always welcome!*

This beauty sold in 24 hours! We might do every dresser in sage green 😆😆

A wonderful couple purchased her for their nursery, and I think that’s my favorite thing to hear. We want a nursery to feel safe and cozy and calm for them (and us, let’s be honest), and I’m just so grateful they found that energy in our piece.

Loved giving this beauty a makeover!! What a lovely older piece, great bones and beautiful stone inserts - I’m usually not a huge fan of stone tops, but this one I LOVE!

What a coastal gem! This seaglass-inspired beauty was a refinishing challenge, but Charles did an amazing job giving her a complete overhaul. With its simple curves and beautiful inlay, carved features, this vintage piece is truly unique - the perfect addition to any ocean-inspired space.

Remember: people are using dressers for a multitude of purposes! From entryways to living rooms to dining rooms, dressers provide the storage you need in any space.

This little gem was a much bigger undertaking than I anticipated. What started as a “sand the top, shabby chic the frame” job turned into a complete overhaul, including sanding down drawers to make them slide (better, at all).

But she turned out to be the perfect piece!
