Headboard Restyle to Country Chic Shelf

July 22, 2014 by Cyndee 6 Comments

4-DSCF1671Headboard Restyle to Country Chic Shelf

1-DSCF1401I bought this shelf from a friend a few years ago. She said it was a headboard, but that’s not what I saw. I envisioned rows of hens tucked cozily in nests laying eggs. Okay, I didn’t really plan on putting chickens in/on the shelf, but that’s what it reminded me of.

2-DSCF1666After cleaning, sanding and securing a few of the vertical dividers that were floating kinda crazily above the middle shelf, I dry brushed the entire thing using white paint.

3-DSCF1668My stash of salvaged chicken wire was the perfect addition for the back of the shelf. The wire was also brushed with the white paint.

I moved the hangers on the back of the shelf because their location didn’t make sense to me. The way they were attached meant the headboard would have been hung with the long slanted side on the bottom. A slanted shelf headboard with a gap on the bottom and no back would have just frustrated me.

4-DSCF1671No problem. My vision had the slant on the top like a roof. Perfect for a stenciled country sign.

Enjoy!

Screen Door Potting Bench

June 18, 2013 by Cyndee 13 Comments

6-DSCN6434Screen Door Potting Bench

1-DSCN6391I actually made this potting bench a few years ago. At the time I really loved it, but it always seemed too big for the enclosed porch where I had it. I finally decided it was time to restyle and sell it.

4-DSCN6420I removed the chicken wire screen from the back and the hooks from the front so they weren’t in the way while I repainted.

3-DSCN6418Then I painted.

2-DSCN6416I decided to mix some almost empty paint cans from my overflowing paint closet. I think I mixed about 10 different colors.

I love the resulting color. Thankfully my mixing made a lot, because I could never replicate it.

9-DSCN6437It’s kinda blue…and kinda green…and kinda gray. Oh, I also tossed in some P of P while I was at it.

7-DSCN6435I dry brushed white over everything, then reattached the chicken wire and the hooks.

6-DSCN6434Enjoy!
