Look at what Hubs discovered
at the flea market!
This fabulous antique full-size walnut foot-board,
has lost its headboard, also pieces of its trim & its finials.
But the carving, oh my,
the carving is in gorgeous condition
&
to-die-for!
So, here's our dilemma!
This is a project that will be for sale when it is finished.
What should we do with this beauty?
Should we make it into a bench or daybed?
A wall hanging, or use as a headboard?
Should this be painted?
Yes? Then what color?
Paint would really make the carving POP!
We aren't afraid to paint an antique,
but then, should we attempt to restore it instead?
Try to find molding to match or have it made?
All possibilities,
but before we make a decision
we are seeking the ideas, thoughts & suggestions
from YOU, the loyal readers of
Continental Calliope and Funky Junk Interiors.
We value your opinions.
So, please, tell us what you think.
Give us your two cents worth or even three!
We are totally open to all suggestions.
We will begin the make-over after hearing from all of you.
We'll be sure to post the big reveal, before it goes up for sale.
