If you’ve ever checked out Jenny’s blog, Ava Blake Creations, you instantly know what her style is. Heck, just glance at her welcome photo, where she’s standing against the peeling paint of an ancient building, the few surviving panes of glass in a weather-beaten window dangling over her head. She likes things distressed. Aged. Well-worn. And she ain’t afraid to hide it.
What she is afraid of though, is shiny black tile, as in “I’m afraid this shiny black tile fireplace isn’t working for me.” But you just can’t go distressing tile … or can you?
