I’m much more likely to put vodka or wine in there, but lately, I’ve been obsessed with altering vintage teacups.
Holiday dishes
With Christ-nukkah around the corner and lots if entertaining at the cottage, I did an inventory (opened the cupboard) and realised I am seriously lacking in any type of serving dishes there.
So I stopped by the thrift store and picked up what I like to think of as ‘somebody’s grandma’s heirlooms’…. Not my heirlooms, well, not yet!
I also got a bunch of pressed glass things that I want to reinvent… Stay tuned!
Ugly on the inside
It’s a good thing I’m always working on different projects. Right here at the cottage, I found everything I needed to gut and put the chair back together. The primer, paint, stuffing and left over fabric, the only thing I needed was a staple gun, but I was seriously lacking one of those, as evidenced by the miles of cables stuck to walls with tape! So after I finish the chair, I will FINALLY tack all these cables where they belong.
Here is chair #2, mid-makeover. The knitting is done, but I have to paint the legs before I can start to reassemble it…
