OLD IRONING BOARD

I GOT AN OLD IRONING BOARD FOR $3 A FEW MONTHS BACK AND HAVE FINALLY FINISHED IT'S FACE LIFT.  IT WAS A HORRID JOHN DEERE GREEN.  THE PALE GREEN ON TOP WAS COMING OFF IN A POWDERY FASHION, WHICH REQUIRED SO MUCH SANDING!

DURING



AFTER



IT HAS SOME CONDITION ISSUES,  LIKE MINOR CRACKING ON TOP.  BUT I'M HOPING SOMEONE CAN SEE PAST THAT AND RELISH THE CHOCOLATE COLOR & FUN LEAF DECALS!  I PLAN TO SELL THIS ONE, ALTHOUGH MY HUSBAND NEVER BELIEVES ME WHEN I SAY THAT!



I LOVE BROWN....AND LEAVES.


                      THANKS FOR LOOKING, STOP BY AGAIN!
