Thank you Ellen.... **★★★★★ — deenaemily, July 2013** > Ellen from Monet's Attic was such a pleasant surprise to find on Etsy! While i was just moving into my first home, I was searching for "the perfect" dresser to fill my new bedroom. When i contacted Ellen, she responded almost immediately and started searching to find me exactly what i was looking for (even if i didn't know at that point!) Over the next few days, she sent me several pictures of dressers she found that she thought might be a good match for me. I was very excited to see different options coming into my inbox! > Once Ellen purchased the dresser i decided on, we began discussing and trying different color combos. While I really didn't know what i wanted at the time and had different visions, Ellen patiently let me try out different colors and tried to make the dresser look exactly how I wanted it. She really made me feel like she wanted to make her customer happy. In the end, I am very happy with my decisions and love how my dresser looks in my new bedroom! Thanks Ellen! I would definitely recommend using Monet's Attic. **★★★★★ — jpz200, April 2013** > I love Monet's Attic!! I was looking for the perfect shabby chic dresser for my daughters room and a friend of mine told me about Ellen at Monet's Attic. As soon as I saw her pieces on Etsy I knew it was the place for me to find what I was looking for!! Not only did Ellen have so many great pieces she was so helpful and professional! I am now in the process of decorating my room and she is helping me with my perfect dresser! I will be a life long fan and customer of Monet's Attic!! **★★★★★ — marcipost, April 2013** > When I needed a new desk for my home office, I searched the internet and all the stores in my area, but I didn't find anything that I liked that cost under $1000!!! I really wanted something vintage/antique and something that would make my home office a special "retreat" for me. A friend recommended I try ETSY. I'd never heard of it, so I searched DESKS on ETSY and found the most amazing antique desk on Monet's ATTIC for less than $500!! I contacted the owner, Ellen, and she was so happy to help me out and add a few extra features to the desk to make it "MINE" -- like special glass knobs and vintage paper drawer liners. She then coordinated delivery within a week! I JUST LOVE my new office and my DESK! Now, I'm saving up for a special bookshelf, of course I will order it from Monet's Attic!! Thanks, Ellen! Highly Recommend!!!!! -- Marci Post. **★★★★★ — sonnenfriedman, March 2013** > I had Ellen at Monet's Attic make me a long dresser with side table in her new Parisian Ruby Collection. I LOVE it! It is just perfect! Very French Country/Shabby Chic. Love the dresser! Thanks! I recommend you check out her site on ETSY. Sonnen **★★★★★ — lefroufrou, March 2013** > I am Monet's Attics BIGGEST FAN! > I came across Monet's Attic when I was very pregnant with my daughter a couple months ago. I had been searching all over NY for the perfect dresser for my little girls nursery, which I was doing in a shabby chic theme. Nothing struck me and I was starting to think I might have to settle because time was running out. I discovered Monet's Attic one day while browsing on Etsy..and noticed the many beautiful furniture pieces. I wrote to the owner, Ellen and told her of my vision. I was delighted to receive a reply immediately from her with thoughts, ideas and a "yes, I can do that!". She assured me she would be able to bring my vision to life and so the process began. Ellen found the perfect piece and emailed me all the time to tell me where she was at with working on it. Keep in mind, I had never seen the piece in person, the entire transaction was being done by email! I trusted her 1000%. She was so kind and BEYOND patient with me, as I was very nervous (and very hormonal!). The day it was delivered to my house, I cried. It was exactly what I envisioned for my little girls room. And talk about customer service and personal touches, I opened the drawers to find a very special surprise..draw liners that matched my daughters bedding!!! She didn't have to do that. She is so passionate and kind. > Ellen has the patience of a saint and incredible talent. She was an absolute angel. Every time I walk into my little girls room and see her beautiful one of a kind dresser, I smile. I can't wait one day to tell my daughter all about how we arrived at this piece and about the special woman who made it with such care and attention to every detail. If only every buying experience could be this pleasant and perfect...I will be a customer for life. I can't recommend Monet's Attic highly enough!!! Thank you, Ellen, for everything! ## Selected projects - [Monet's Attic Hand Painted Vintage Dressers](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/monet-s-attic-hand-painted-vintage-dressers-pj-vj~190918) - Location: Chatham, NJ - Photos: 35 - [Monet's Attic Vintage & Antique Desks](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/monet-s-attic-vintage-and-antique-desks-pj-vj~205296) - Location: Chatham, NJ - Photos: 8 - Description: Vintage & Antique Desks by Monet's Attic Refurbished and Re-Created one-of-a-kind desks for your home or office - [Monet's Attic Upholstered Chairs and Sofas](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/monet-s-attic-upholstered-chairs-and-sofas-pj-vj~232794) - Location: Chatham, NJ - Photos: 8 [See all 3 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/furniture-and-accessories/monet-s-attic-pfvwus-pf~251960104) ## Ideabooks - [Love this!](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/14160673/list/love-this) — 6 ideas - [Desks -- Home Office](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/9203638/list/desks-home-office) — 3 ideas [See all 2 ideabooks](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/monetsattic) ## Community Q&A **Q: Dresser name?** *(in Photo Questions)* Do you know what this dresser is called or what line it is from? I have the highboy version and I'm looking for its mate!! The white is neat but I'm looking for original wood. If you can offer any help I would appreciate it, thank you! A: Also try Duncan Phyfe **Q: How much? - also, a question about a visual detail in the photo** *(in Photo Questions)* When one looks at the photo, the horizontal line - between bottom drawer and next one up - is very clearly seen (giving the impression that it is a 'perfect fit'); between second drawer - from bottom - and the one above the center third of that same line seems different - what is the reason for this? does the drawer not fit correctly? Am also interest in knowing what kind of wood it is made of - it mentions solid wood in the description. Is there any way of knowing time period of manufacturing? Thank you, A: Hi, Thanks for your interest. This dresser has been sold. Please feel free to email me if you'd like me to custom re-create a dresser for you. Ellen@MonetsAttic.net **Q: I love the dresser, what color is it?** *(in Photo Questions)* A: Thank you! I mix my own paint colors. It's like an antique white. **Q: WHAT IS THE COST OF THIS DRESSER. i ABSOULUTELY LOVE IT** *(in Photo Questions)* A: Hello, Thanks for the question. I'm the owner of Monet's Attic. The dresser pictured was a custom order, and price varies per order. Please contact me at Ellen@monetsattic.net if you are interested in having one of these created for you. Thanks! Ellen. **Q: where can I buy this dresser?** *(in Photo Questions)* A: Hi Mallory, Please contact me at Ellen@MonetsAttic.net **Q: Need help with fireplace** *(in Design Dilemma)* Trying to sell my house and think the fireplace is not helping. I need help on staging or giving a facelift or redesign A: I would hang the TV above the fireplace and then on each side of the fireplace build a white painted bookshelf right into the brick. Very easy to do. Check out some DIY sites if $ for a handyman is an issue. You could put pretty vases, etc on the shelf as well as books. Would look very warm. I would replace the rug with a round one -- that would make the room look less "linear." You can get some pretty good priced round rugs on Overstock.com. I would also put the chair caddy-corner and add a very small table to "anchor" the chair to the room -- make it look like it's belongs there instead of something just hanging there. Are those windows above the couch? If so, I would get a small valance for each window to add some color, and warmth. Good luck! --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
