Had this desk for a very long time. I knew I wanted to paint it primitive but I needed just the right inspiration. I went into an antique store one day and there for sale was a desk sorta like this one that I had painted several years ago. Funny thing is that they were asking more for it than what I originally sold it for. Made me feel loved.
This is the finished product. I sold this one the first week I had it in my booth.
I wonder where I will see it next!!!
This is a primitive piece used for holding magazines. I painted it old red and put a metal barn star on the front.
I love painting chairs, I have done this design before and just had to paint it again. I used some fencing for the back of the chair and embellished it with a flag and grapevine wreath.
I found this handmade spool cupboard at a thrift shop. I think it was made in shop class in a nearby High School. It was very well made and I thought I would give it antique look.
It sold in two days so I think the update was a success.
This is a CD cupboard I bought and repainted. It originally had an out dated golf theme in the frame that had way too many plastic parts. I decided to round up some vintage items and place them inside the door frame using ticking as a background.
This is a toilet paper/Kleenex holder that I painted up. I have one in each of my bathrooms and they are a great way to always have paper on hand!
This piece is made from 3 military trays and a set of vintage desk legs. I bolted the legs onto the trays and made a great rusty catch all.
I cut some spindles off and had these pieces left over.....so ....
I make these almost every fall. They are super cute and easy.
You can paint any wood piece and make it look prim!
1980's bench made updated to 2015!
I just started with these pieces until I ran out of things to mount on the boards! LOL
Just an old iron plate with some scrabble pieces with magnets.
Chalk paint is my friend!
