Fun Wood Projects


 Quick Project:
had 3 of these oak heat register grates.
Two sold as they wre complete,
and this one had slats missing,
so I finally did a little project with it.
 a Christmas tree.
(You could also get some weathered slats or lath, or new and stain it).
Took me about an hour.

 This I got at an estate sale last month.....

it was filled with these 21 drawers and were they
ever stuck in there, and it was all filthy.
We put it by wood stove for awhile
 and finally got all drawers out.
Now, decision:
fix the 'frame' it was in, which is pretty wobbly and coming apart,
or just sell all the drawers individually.

I love the challenge of putting it all back together, but honestly,
can make much more out of it just selling the drawers.

What would you do???

New Treasures

 will you look at this find!!!
A Suzy Homemaker stove. too cute. less than 18" tall
and works. This was gone before I got a price tag on it.
 Got this new metal cabinet by Lyon Company.
1949
 locking door......
now a display piece at the store.
 This cool old scoop, used to scoop cement looks like.
 How about this leather satchel.
Love this!!! Pretty messy inside, but great to put on a shelf, or
how about a plant in it for the patio?


 and this special find.
Not too impressive looking I suppose.
But what if I told you it is part of a 75 year old....
curtain stretcher??
Yep. I've never heard of it either.
But fun treasures for art or creative wall hanging.
They measure from 46" to 57",
and there were 8 of them in the box.
Some even have a lip on the edge and could hold scrabble tiles....
I see some fun projects coming!!

Thanks for visiting.

Plugging Away on the New Room




We are making progress on the new room at the shop.


Another corner.
Love this old cabinet!!
I think maybe it had a radio in it at one time.

My sweet granddaughter Camille.
She is my right hand girl.
After "work" Mondays and Tuesdays,
I'm teaching her how to drive.
So much fun!!
No, she is not taking a break.
The heater showing bugged me,
so she fixed the problem. =)

Another corner in progress.

My sweet fella helping.
Smile hon.

Sewing corner.

Can I take a break now???

Time to get back to work
