Small items help fill out a booth and luckily I like painting small things. I'm not too keen on repairing them but, hey, if the price is right ......
This sad kitchen office file thingy had three corners chewed off by a puppy. I totally forgot to take photos of the missing corners but you get the gist.
I had to sculpt new corners with wood filler.
I didn't have high expectations for this file thingy but it surprised me.
Trashed veneer is probably the simplest thing to fix.
Just add trim.
New corners!
The finished office thingy.

I was told by a designer friend that gray and yellow was the new hip combination. Huh. I missed that somehow but I'm game. I had the perfect little test cabinet.
Love the punched tin pineapple.
Yellow and gray. Who knew?
The inside is not this bright! Honest!
Yellow in the drawer.
A bit more yellow around the tin.
The new look. I could warm up to yellow and gray.

You did a great job. It really undated them both and that file piece could work in so many places. The pineapple - symbol for hospitality really looks fresh! Would love to see this at "Open House".
ReplyDeleteThe sad thingy :-) looks interesting, especially inside. I had never seen it before. You did a good job with it. I could warm up to yellow and gray, but I need some time.

That little file thingey came out awesome! Painting the inside of it wasn't fun, I'll bet. Now it looks like a little grain bin with a secret.
ReplyDeleteReally liked the file thingy!
ReplyDeleteOh wow, I love the way this came out! I'm in love with stencils so when I saw the picture on missmustardseed's linky, I had to click on it!!
