On my way from barn to house with a small side table to paint, this happened. I don't know if it was age of piece, dry/frozen glue or the fact that I slipped on ice....
So, I took the top in the house, saved the legs because they had neat detail on them and I could use on another project (maybe a picture frame). I had to run to Hobby Lobby and I found this metal hanger at 50% off. I took a chance that it might just fit...on the top...of the broken table.
I decided to paint the board and attach the hook hanger. I don't like things that look too "clean" I have to antique it up. I added some stain over the whole piece.
I didn't let the broken table stop me. Truthfully, someone might have looked at that and tossed it in the burn pile.
A. I can hardly do that.
B. I paid for the table, I feel I need to turn it/flip it to make money.
C. After looking at it on the ice, I could see this - maybe not the way it turned out - but, I knew the top would be a back to something.
These are the types of items I make and sell. My next event is this week at Theme: "March of the Dafodils"

And I will be doing an "It's a Pickin' & Fixin' - Vintage Pop Up Sale" on April 7th:

Here is a piece of furniture I did this week too
