After the Spill

After the Spill

Created on retrieved wood and features handmade paper beads.

Finally, I found a stand that would fit into my kitchen.  I found this castaway from the thriftstore:

Thrift Store Stand

Someone else's junk will become my treasure.

First I washed the stand to see what I had.  Not all the marks were dirt and scratches, some marks were cigarette burns.  I used a heat gun to remove the paint on the two shelves of the stand.  Then, I sanded it to find some nice wood, which I later stained and varnished.  I sanded and painted the legs to match my kitchen.
