Hines, Connie

Original hand-painted, fun furniture by Connie Hines & Kaylajo Regers. From outdoor garden benches to indoor/outdoor wall hangings, chairs and tables. At “The Cookoos Nest” everything becomes a canvas for painting. From the floor, to the tabletops, to the flea market finds and other items, things that seem to have lost their life have now been rejuvenated into eye-pleasing art.

The Cookoos Nest is located in Avery, Texas.
