Cedar Chest + Metal File Drawers Equal....

Vintage metal file drawers. 

Love them.

I have been trying to build something with them for quite some time.

 

Vintage painted Lane cedar chest + 3 vintage metal file drawers + 3 pieces of painted wood

 

Voila!  A console!

 

The pieces are not attached to each other in any way.  I wanted the cedar chest to

be available for storage.  Comes apart and goes back together in a flash.

 

I think it would be a great TV console.

 

 



Make Over - Mid Century Nightstand

 

 

I found this little nightstand not too long ago and I loved it's shape and style.

It could have been left alone, but I had ideas of giving it a new life and look.

 

 

 

I think it looked great after a couple of coats of Annie Sloan Chalk Paint!

Unique.  Bright.  Mid Century. 

Just what I wanted for this little nightstand.

It now lives in another home with someone that loves it too.

 

 

Crossing things off the list

I have had this little wooden caddy for quite some time and I finally got around to giving it a new coat of paint.

 

It has so many possibilities.... including making it's way to my etsy shop!

 

 



I also painted several vintage frames and chalkboard inserts.  I love when something on my list gets crossed off, especially when it has been there for months!

Rway vanity

Rway Vanity
 

Let me start by stating I was not the first person to paint this great piece. When I thrifted this desk several years ago it had been painted white. It's original wood color was a mid century goldish tone.

 

 It was made by Rway Furniture Co. and is a sturdy piece of furniture. The middle of the top opens to expose a vanity mirror and storage space.

 

 Great piece. Hate to sell it, but I really don't have space for it. It might just start a furniture moving frenzy....
