A Furniture Artist Star Is Born
In the days before it became famous, 'Joe's Fine Antiques and Furniture Design' was know by the name of 'Joe's Junk and Antique Shop'. It's owner, who uses the single name of 'Gustave', sometimes wishes that his little shop had kept it's original name, and that all the fame had passed it by. But after the local newspaper did a write-up on it as part of a series about quaint local businesses, there was no stopping it. Word had gotten out about Gustave's incredible talents, and now the world was beating a path to the great man's door.
Gustave's talent lay in his exceptional ability to see the hidden beauty of rusted-out bedsteads and old, beaten up baby cribs. Not only could he see their hidden potential, he could transform them into creations of exquisite elegance. Before long, interior designers to the rich and famous were beating a path to his door. The waiting list for one of his creations was several months long.
By training, Gustave was a furniture designer. As a normal designer he was one of the best, but his true genius lay in furniture recycling. He hunted for promising pieces at garage sales and estate sales, and sometimes along the curb on garbage day. When he found one, he brought it back to the shop, where he stripped it down and remodeled it. Dozens of cheap armchairs went from the garbage heap, to the living rooms of the Fortune 500 after his skilled hands got through with them. It was a secret that only he and the interior designer who'd purchased it shared.
Until the newspaper ran the article, the sad truth was that, outside of a handful of up-and-coming interior designers, very few people ever realized that there were furniture designers who specialized in the type of furniture recycling that Gustave did.
But Gustave was not only an expert in furniture recycling, he was also an expert in antique furniture. The same talent that allowed him to see the inner qualities in discarded furniture enabled him to unerringly spot legitimate antiques that were hidden in the midst of piles of junk. At a glance, he was able to distinguish genuine Pennsylvania Farmhouse dining sets from lesser copies. Even thick layers of paint could hide them from his sharp eyes.
Once an antique was in his hands he would spend hours lovingly restoring it, no matter how lowly it was. It did not even have to be a piece of furniture. His interest in other antiques started when he discovered a strange-looking object amongst the personal effects of the store's previous owner. His inner alarm bells went off instantly. Sure enough, after a bit of research he was able to determine that he had a genuine nineteenth century bedpan on his hands. He could not have been more pleased.
Celebrity is not an easy thing for a devoted artist of Gustave's caliber. If it were not for how much his fans appreciate of his work, he'd throw it all away in an instant. To help him bear the load, he's taken on an apprentice who goes by the single name of 'Charles'. As for the bedpan, it now has a new home in the collection of a once famous movie-star whose name Gustave refuses to divulge.

Frequently Asked Questions...
why is it so hard for most artist to sale 1 million first week/?
some can't even sale 100k. hey if they're lucky after 3 years they sold 1 million. what i don't understand is we live in a big world and i don't think records sale like they should. US population is huge! so i really don't comprehend 100k, 500k, 1million in sales. Could it be the fact that people are just not supporting the music industry and downloading the music illegally?
Answer:
you see 1 million is actually quit a big number. and to create something and get a million people all on the same page is really hard to do, can you convince that many people your work is worth $25 a piece?
