Book clock

Hey, Froggers. This is just a little project that I wanted to share. I'll tell you about it later, since the girls are home from college and life has gotten a little bit busier. TTFN!

Half Round Table Transformation

Hey, Froggers. Wow! Two posts in a week. I’m on a roll. Actually, I’ve been biking with my neighbor, and we all know what THAT means! It means that I’m so sore in the evenings, that all I do is sit around. Yup. As the old Binary Philosopher said, “I sit, therefore, I blog.”

I’ve also had a little bit of energy to transform this little pretty. I found her at a yard sale. The only blemish that she had was some minor water damage on the top. She’s solid oak.



 
I decided to keep her rather simple- just a few coats of ASCP in old white, and a reverse stenciled design on the top. I just waxed her with clear Briwax.











A little distressing later, she was ready to go to my space in Building Character.



I wish I could keep all of the pieces I transform. It's not as bad as if I'd have to give up my children, but it's a close second.

I hope you all have a Craftastic day!
Fondly, Tami
