I've been busy all summer and haven't had a chance to update my blog!
I bought a couple of neat mid-century modern pieces of furniture and refurbished them. They were purchased at Peddler's Mall, an indoor flea market here in KY. I mentioned it in this previous post.
The first piece is this cabinet. It was pretty rickety and rough and had years of smoke built up on it. The color was way too dark. I only paid $9 for it.
I painted it a chocolate brown and the back panel is off-white. Now when I put my collectibles on the shelves we will actually be able to see them!
The next piece is this bar. I really liked the design but the color was horrendous...sort of a greenish-brown fake wood. It was only $12.
So I used some of the leftover paint from the cabinet and here is the result:

Sigh...if only I had money to burn...
Well, maybe some day I will luck out and find something similar at Goodwill.
I can dream, can't I?
