Craigslist is like crack, really it is. You find items that people think are out of date, trash or have zero value to them and with a little TLC you can bring pieces back to life. It's completely addicting! Take this little lovely...
Worn, little dated and had some cosmetic issues BUT had great bones! SOLD! I decided to update her and give this little lovely new lease on life. Fixed all her cosmetic issues, primed and painted in Creamy by Sherwin Williams. To give her a little something different, I stamped the doors with a french motif with a waterproof ink. Finally, distressed her in all the right places and finished with a polyacrylic finish. Well...here she is!
You do great work!! It is all so beatiful!!

I have no eye for things! This is amazing. How do you pick good pieces?
ReplyDeleteHi! I just look for pieces that have good "bones"! If it has minor cosmetic issues I can fix those. If you can get past the ugly factor of a piece and see potential that's really all you need. Did that help? Thanks for your kind words! :)
