pieces of africa

I am a bit obsessed with Lee Kleinhelter and her Atlanta shop, Pieces. Her work has been featured in numerous design magazines (namely 2 of my favorites that have been shut down due to the economy...Cottage Living and Domino, may you RIP) and she has this amazing knack for breathing new life into old pieces of furniture. I want everything off her website, but of course it is insanely expensive. So imagine my surprise when I came across this piece, priced at....wait for it...$2705!!!

Umm, I can get this at the market here for like N 6,000 ($50). Now all I need is some white spray paint! Or maybe a funky color like saffron (to go with the dahlia chair, naturally).
