It's hard to say what I love most about it. The wood was very rustic and primitive so I gave it a coat of cream paint..... |
I added a vintage decal right above the latch.... |
I covered the top in one of my favorite vintage roses and lilacs wallpaper...... |
I love how each latch is different (hmmm, on these close-ups you can see what a sloppy painter I am!) |
I love the fact that someone took an old suitcase handle and put it on this tool chest! |
But probably my favorite thing about it is that it's on four wheels, what is it about wheels that really make you take notice? |
I was also able to find some awesome, very vintage trims at an indoor garage sale... |
And these folks had to come home with me too....! This will be a busy week making some items for my Etsy shop which is re-stocked to the gills with new stuff, come on over and take a peek! |
