Or….what I’m painting this week……
I’m sure some of you will cringe when you
read I painted an antique oak
schoolhouse coat rack.
The reality is though….
antiques
have really tanked around here
and it was more
economical to paint it then
to resell it and buy
a new one.
-----------
Finding accessories for this
space has been really challenging which is
why I haven’t posted pics yet.
Hang in there though….I will eventually!

Not me - I won't cringe at anything that makes beautiful perfect use of something in one's special spaces......how is it ever a bad plan?
ReplyDeleteI think it looks awesome there and in its new "clothes."
Well done.
I'm not going to scold you for painting it, because I would've done the same thing! Ha! It looks great. I love towels on hooks instead of bars anyway.
ReplyDeleteI love it painted and cute towel rack idea.
ReplyDeleteLooks great. I would paint more but I have to contend with MR dh.
ReplyDeleteI totally think you should have painted it...looks beautiful, love your bathroom.

O love the coat rack, Des, and it looks great where you have it! Once you start painting, it's hard to stop!

Hi Des,
ReplyDeleteCute idea for a towel rack. It looks great painted.

Very pretty from what I can see, Des! I think you need to do with your pieces what works for you.
ReplyDeleteDes, it is beautiful and paint whatever makes you happy. Vintage and antique do not sell as good for me as more modern pieces. Many younger people just do not like antiques. Antique stores are closing all over the South. hugs, olive
ReplyDeleteCharming bathroom, Des, and I love it painted white!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty Des! Looks like you and me can't put the paint brush down LOL!
ReplyDeleteI love the rack, Des and I love that you painted it. The market is extremely slow for antiques here as well.
ReplyDeleteI love it.Some things are meant to be painted.
ReplyDeleteDon't worry, I won't cringe. I paint everything I can possibly find. Not always white but it will get painted. I would paint everything in my home but Mr. County would surely object. And honestly, I think that the coat rack looks great painted!
ReplyDeleteMarianne :)
Anyone who cringes should remind themselves there is something called paint stripper.
