I picked up this little cutie for a song, otherwise I would not have messed with it.
There were no "graphics" left on the the winding window at the top, so I found one of the vintage posters that they now sell in all antique shops and cut it to size. Much gluing, clipping and time later....only to discover I did it backwards! argh The above is a picture of it backwards.
More gluing, clipping and time passing.
I got the top part done.
Then I attached chains to both sides so that the
legs would stand up.
Then I repainted the chalkboard section.
So cute, so worth it.
It turned out great. I hate it when I do something like that and have to take it apart.
ReplyDeleteGood job!
