ON THE FARM rustic barn chest

Photo taken at Webster Fleamarketmore about that at the bottom.

This chest was in terrible shape

I chose to work with its rustic attributes not against them.

The original hardware was tossed in the trash, these

 beauties were stolen roadside off a pressboard 70s

 long dresser, might I add it was pouring rain at the time.

I highlighted the grain in the plywood by having

black under the red and sanding till it showed thru.

But the very first coat was a white primer, I wanted

 many layers to show thru adding to the appearance of age.

I couldnt think of a better way to line the drawers

 then with this fun farmhouse tablecloth.

While working on this rustic red chest of drawers I

 was reminded of all the neat farm items we saw while

strolling thru many of Floridas fleamarkets last month.?

Here are just some of the farm items that caught our eye.

I wish I could have taken this yoke transformed into

 a mirror home on the plane. George just looks at

 me sideways when I say that. Have you seen some

 of the things ppl carry on planes?
