Spring Has Sprung!

It has been absolutely gorgeous outside lately! That would explain my lack of posts :) When the weather is warm and the sun is shining I am in the garage working, working, working! I want to share a bench that I recently finished that would be soooo perfect for a porch, patio, sun room, heck even inside would work. It started out life as a headboard that I picked up at the Goodwill store.

Cute on its own, but I had greater plans for her! I was also the recipient of a section of deck railing that my sister rescued from her neighbor's trash. This was to become the decking of the bench seat. I added a couple of table legs from a damaged table that I got for a steal, and some oak scalloped edging from my neighbor's garbage. Wow! That sounds like a hot mess as I describe the components. I promise you will be pleasantly surprised!
Assembled and painted in ASCP Old White
I added an all-weather cushion and upholstery so she is good to be inside or out :) Coordinating pillows tie it all together. Sigh, I love her! Fabulous!

She is waiting at Market Antiques in Ottawa for someone to take her home and love her :)  I have also taken some other cute outdoor goodies for your viewing pleasure. Go check them out!

See you soon- Christy
