BEFORE:
6-sided end table - throw-back from the early 80's!
AFTER:
Curbside find after a little paint and whimsical graphics!
I love this antique buffet sideboard! I got it in CO and it was in pretty rough shape. (see 'before' pictures on previous blog) Thanks to Richard, he made it sturdy again! It rained on the trip back, and even though it was well covered, the veneer got wet on the doors and lifted. I had to make repairs using techniques Richard had shown me a long time ago. And he thinks I don't ever pay attention!! It turned out great!
CHAIRS, CHAIRS, AND MORE CHAIRS!
Old wooden desk or teacher's chair - BEFORE
WILD AND WACKY - AFTER!
Pretty upholstered chair with wooden arms. ('before' photo on previous blog) I like the vintage looking fabric.
I added a tiny eyelet ruffle trim - so dainty!
Fun turquoise chair with t-shirt covered seat and matching pillow! Tres' Chic!
Love the detailed legs on these dining chairs! I used burlap coffee bean sacks for the seat covers. Burlap is my new favorite fabric!
I threw this one in just for fun! It was a curbside find that needed to be 're-built'! (see 'before' pic in previous blog) Quite the challenge for this 'non-carpenter'! Some things should just be left on the curb for the trashman! Anyhoo .. it's a conversation piece and quite comfortable to boot!
Speaking of BURLAP ... I made several table runners of different styles.
I got this BURLAP coffee bean sack in Hawaii at the Kona Farmer's Market! I thought it would be appropriate as the liner in this Farmer's Market cart! Fun & Useful!
Candle holders made out of vintage porch rail spindles and rusty, crusty, metal thing-a-ma-jigs! Perfect setting for Shabby Chic burlap table runner!
Great way to display wine corks! I'm not a wine connoisseur - I choose wine by their pretty labels!
Okay, that's it for now! There are lots more projects that I didn't photograph, but you get the idea! Stay tuned for new creations coming soon!
So, until next time ..... KEEP ON JUNKIN'!!
