Welcome to Second Chance Art & Accessories!  This site is your online showroom and information center for unique artwork, accessories, and furniture.  I hope you enjoy the site!

So, where did Second Chance Art & Accessories come from anyway?

Here’s the scoop!

I’ve always been sort of crafty & was looking for unique ways to furnish my home.  I started to fix up furniture and make things out of other old stuff (another love of mine) with the help of my husband and father, both skilled carpenters.  Eventually, I got to the point where finished projects began to accumulate - beyond the point of need.  My sister suggested I sell some things at an arts/crafts show - and Second Chance Art & Accessories began!

 It’s been a few years now, and I’ve started to figure out what my hot sellers are.  I’ve also branched into custom artwork (very rewarding!), and have also done some painting projects at people’s homes.  

 For now, my sales venue continues to be local arts & crafts shows (see show schedule), and business by phone or email.  I am able to send pictures of potential designs and orders in progress to customers via email, so custom orders can be done without any travel from customers - except to arrange for pickup.  Shipping can also be arranged.

Second Chance Art & Accessories is a continuing adventure -- allowing me an excuse to comb flea markets (Kane County is my favorite!) and create beautiful, useful things from former cast offs.  We’ll see where the adventure goes!  For more of the inside scoop on Second Chance Art & Accessories - check out my blog:  www.secondchanceart.blogspot.com.
