Last Fall our neighbors moved out of the house next door and as a "parting gift" we were offered a few pieces of old furniture. I of course cannot say no to anything being offered free to me, so I gladly took it. I know that this behavior is getting me closer to my premier on that show "Hoarders" but I dont care, I love free stuff! Anyway one piece was a buffet/sideboard and the other is some sort of armoire. We have no idea what to do with them but Daniel refinished one and not only does it look fantastic but Maddie can write all over it.
Here is Daniel sanding it, Maddie's job was to stand below and catch the dusk with her hair.
Who doesnt love furniture you can write all over?
That turned out really good! It's beautiful!! I like the idea of the chalkboard finish. Danny did a nice job... and Maddie can write, write, write :)
ReplyDeleteI think it looks great too! It was supposed to have a piece of glass in the front but when we got it the glass was already broken, so daniel decided a chalkboard. Maddie can write on it and I can hide all my junk in it!
DeleteA good fix! You're right, too... you can hide all kinds of things behind it :)
DeleteRefinishing and selling older furniture could be a lucrative sideline :)
ReplyDeleteThats what I told Daniel unfortunately I think I would have a hard time reselling things, I know I would want to keep everything.
DeleteYeah! I'd be the same way... I would want to keep it all! But I guess if you get something with the idea to sell it, that might be different. Well, maybe not:) He does such a good job refinishing!
