Quick Facelift of a Brass Floor Lamp

I had picked this brass floor lamp at a yard sale a long time ago. I love the aged brass patina, and tried to sell it as is, with a simple new white lamp shade. But my customers didn't like it so much. It sat in my space at The Spaulding Cooeprage untouched. So I took it home and gave it a facelift...

 I think it looks amazing now! Should I keep it?? NO!

 It's heading over to The Spaulding Cooperage today to find it's way into someone else's home.

I can't keep everything! (That's what I keep telling myself anyway)

Enjoy your weekend!!

Flea Market Sunday-Nautical Finds

Good morning!

It was a stunning sunrise this morning, but chilly at the Flea this morning...

35 degrees, and it's May?!

Not too many good finds today,

but my pickings defiantly had a nautical feel to them...

 Love the small tray with the knots display.

 A pair of nicely weathered flower boxes, a small brass anchor and a wrought iron piece of art, and a pair of vintage red and white boat cushions.

Great covered demi john.

And Favorite Find?  It's gotta be this crate...

 With it's stenciled MAB 2035 on all sides and top, great patina on the wood, and a size of 23h x 31w x 20h, with some added casters, will make a fabulous coffee table with storage!

 

Happy Cinco de Mayo!

Enjoy!
