Love the ugly....

I love getting or finding pieces of furniture that are broken,ugly,discarded and heading to the tip... And turning them into something that is useful,beautiful and safe from the tip for another 20 plus years..

So I thought I would show you a few of the pieces I have done over the last couple of years..















As you can see. Some, I have before and after pictures but sometimes I forget, like the last one to take the before..
I have to tell you though I love doing this...My dream is to one day have a barn where I can work on these lovelies ..But for the moment my craftroom, backyard, basement will have to do..
Have a great day..

    Kelly: Hello!! We're your neighbors from across the street in Roseville. We found out you moved after you left so we didn't get a chance to say goodbye :( Sounds like you're still adjusting to SF - Glad to see you're still doing furniture, as you have such a gift in that area!
