A couple of weeks ago we attended a yard sale and I bought a tray for a tea wagon
Cost me seven dollars, took it home and took the glass off and painted it a soft pink - I think Antoinette, ASCP great for my tea wagon I bought last year.
When I got the tea wagon home one of the large wheels was broken. On ebay I could buy wheels for 75.00 but not worth it, so I had hubby cut the uneven legs ( for the wheels) same as the other two.
I used ASCP old white, this is my before picture, I forgot to take them.
Got it finished and going to have a little tea
Come and join me
Cups and saucers are Shelley, as is the cream n sugar.
the two little dishes are Bridal Wreath, I got a huge stack at auction last week, it's a pattern that isn't that popular anymore, now saying that most dishes aren't popular at all. Things have changed in the auction business.
really looked after and only used on special teas, so would be in good shape. But then saying that it should be used all the time so maybe it would be well worn, oh well didnt do it, couldn't bring myself to. It just didnt call for it.
bought little wheels from Home Depot.
