A find



I was thrilled to find this gorgeous old beauty this weekend.... It has the kind of old patina you cannot reproduce, layers of chippy paint and rusty knobs that make my heart sing...







This beauty (and many other treasures) will be traveling with me this weekend to Washington, as I will be a part of the Ruffles and Rust show in Monroe...!! Will I see you there?

  15. I'll be there in spirit...on the sidelines cheering you on! Have a great show. If the rest of your merchandise is this beautiful, it should be a sell out!

  19. Thankfully you rescued this beauty in it's aged to perfection condition before someone took the notion to 'refinish' it! *smiles* I often get strange looks when I find something gracefully aged to perfection and the Seller is apologizing for it's condition and I tell them it's exactly as I adore and want it to remain! *LOL*
