A lovely lady I work with gave me this table....
it was a bit dark and gloomy and the criss crossy things on the doors were dust collectors!
I took this old lamp shade and cut it up to replace the door panels....
gave everything a lick of paint and a bit of rough sanding....
ready for the lounge room, with lots of storage!
Hello! Welcome to my post, a post about the wonderful possibilities of junk... Nothing excites me more than junk, a garage sale, a pile of crap on the side of the road - wood, rust, old paint and fabric - is that sad ha ha? The amazing art of up-cycling gets me going, I love the idea of creating something beautiful from items that were headed for landfill. I created this blog because I needed to, I have a lot of thoughts and projects to share. I hope you enjoy...
