Before & After- The Kitchen
1. My neighbor gave me this vintage Revereware copper kettle because she knows I like copper, and I polished it up a few times. Now it’s sitting on top of my stove hood.
2. This was an old dry-sink that I got at an auction for 40 bucks, at least 100 years old. You lift the lid and it has storage underneath. It was in bad shape though, complete with ink stains, bad wood filler jobs, and some crappy chalk paint inside. I sanded it, used some stuff that revives old wood, re-stained and sealed the top, andproceeded to paint over the crappy chalk paint with leftover paint I had from the the top of my kitchen wall (a nice burnt pumpkin). It really brought out the original beauty of the wood and gave it a nice two-tone look.
The final picture is the end result. And now it’s filling an empty space in my kitchen, and looks really good!
The two bottom pictures are a little bit on the red side....it’s true color is closer to the picture taken outside. I’ll post more later!
