  • Опубликовано: 4 окт 2024
  • Left by the side of the road by some college kids who were moving home, this colonial style table was headed to the dump, for sure. But with her quality construction, she was absolutely worth saving! Come with me as I take a relaxing approach to this makeover - inspired by the "Coastal Grandma" trend, and with a dash of The Queen's Gambit, we'll refresh this little table into such a beauty, you won't believe your eyes.

    Forgot to say previously…I like both drawer pulls. Wooden for Autumn and Winter. Ceramic for Spring and Summer. Then your shelves could have seasonal decor too. Have a wonderful day. The wait for your videos is always worth it. 🐞

    Andy, Heywood-Wakefield are very much still in existence having made furniture following the times.
    Showing the quality of their furniture and the love put into it by the local people working from them.
    When they started, you could have found members of a whole family working for them.
    If you Google them you can see some of their mid century pieces going right back to much older pieces.
    You might even be able to get an idea of the age of your piece.
    Remember, anything over 100 yrs is considered an antique.
    I'm so glad you rescued it.
    I watch you from Northern Ireland, but missed some episodes, can't watch tv lying down when I'm unwell.
    Catching up. 🥰

    I painted a checkerboard table for my husband and grandson years ago. I embellished it with their favorite team colors and logos. Then I managed to find an old box of wooden checkers, original box, too. That was the icing on the cake for me. Fun project! I like yours, too. 🙂♟️
