I bought this owl at a thrift store, I so should of taken a before picture because it was very ugly. I loved the owl itself but the paint job was not good. I simply spray painted it white and glazed it with dark brown. I took it to work to hold my pens. A lady stopped by my window and said "Oh I just saw that at Pier One!" Ah no you didn't this one is from the 1970's! lol
I love shutters. I took 2 and put them together using some corner shelf pieces I found at my local resale shop. I painted and grunged them and then decoupaged old hymns to the inside.
Got this old trunk from a co-worker that needed a bit a TLC. I painted it up and added the front decorative piece to replace a broken lock. I don't think that you would immediately know that if I didn't tell you...at least that is what I hope! LOL I put a metal number on the front too. I crackled the finish and antiqued it as well.
The inside had this cool piece that was hinged that opened for extra storage. I had to make new hinges and put some paper over the wood to hide the flaws. I used really old paper from a hymn book so you really couldn't tell it was done in 2014 more like 1914.
Just a painted high chair for a doll and a birdhouse.
I got these child size shoes at an antique store and put them on this basket. I took a picture and just loved how it looked. This is what I love anything old, rusty, and worn!
I hope my Son got his creativity from me! His tape measure broke and this is his version of redneck repair. Yee Haw I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This guy took my heart the day he was born. He makes me laugh and is a great Son. I truly hope that where ever life takes him he never changes and always remains the loving fun person that he is!
