Another little side Table




Old sewing machine cases seem to find me....
and sometimes some are so far gone, but there is something special about them... 





I took an panel I found roadside and had been holding onto for a special project

Cut it here...


nailed in place, did some sanding...


sealed with some Cabots and added little felt circles to the bottem

now it is a little side table

Tree Angel



I am not usually a cherub person, but I had two if these little cherubs, I had removed from some decorative jars and replaced with simpler knobs...

 I also had an old exterior light, chipped plate and some drawer knobs...
so I glued it all together...

and got a tree ornament...

Junk Style

Hi guys, Thank you for your interest in my junk decorating ideas!
I also have a facebook page called 'Junk Style' if anyone is keen to connect this way. I have found facebook to be a little more user friendly and easier for people to navigate than blogger, So I post on both sites. I also like to share with like minded people so would love to hear from anyone who shares the interest!

Little table freebies and Cheapies!

Outdoor Dining Revamp

 I am swapping my indoor dining chairs with the outdoor chairs.

These are my indoor dining chairs


I need to remove the cushions that were not outdoor friendly, so I made a few repairs to the seats...

Then gave all the chairs a rainbow paint job....

Then the table got a sanding...
and a lick of white paint....
