Junkin’ It

-I’ve been visiting a lot of blogs lately of people that decorate with what some might consider junk.  Oh, the nerve to think of it as junk!  I choose to think they are “loved jewels” that have been greatly upcycled.  In that note, here are some of the “loved jewels” around my house.

This little, cute-as-a-button ladder is now a little side table. 

I’m starting to have an obsession with doorknobs.

I couldn’t resist the little shoe forms, the paint splats made them even more appealing to me!

My favorite loved jewel of all is the farm table.

I had the table made out of a garage door I got through Freecycle.  It was painted white and it was all chippy and yummy.  I did have it sand down for practical purposes.  But I left the paint when I made this little table to let weather outside.

I was able to get two of these wonderful doors and the other one became the table top for the bar in the Mancave.  

There’s still a long piece left waiting for me to reinvent it.  All in due time.

I got really brave this week and brought out the original hardware that came with the doors and displayed them here. 

As usual, I’m not sure if I like it or not.  I‘m letting sit and settle on me a while before I decide.  What do you think?  I want brutal honesty, I think. I
