Found this gem at a Sale this past weekend for $3. I had no idea what I needed it for, but had this feeling if I left it there, I would regret it!
It was painted that green when I found/saved it. I liked the color. I lightly sanded it, taking off the loose paint and dirt.
The lines/cracks in the piece are beautiful. They tell a story of its life.
The middle had some water damage to it. I sanded it down to get rid of the "bump". I then cleaned it off, stained it using Min-wax stain, let dry and then put a protective coat on top.
And the outcome.... AMAZING!
I LOVE how the wood darkened up.
I have her sitting in my back yard by a pine tree with an old metal wheel (I found at my parent's farm) and an old ladder. I plan on putting a plant on top her next spring summer, brought out a little color. Big reveal next summer as it is too cold to go back there now :)
