Transformation underway

I started work on my yellow "footpath find" today and can already see its massive potential.



 I removed the top and pulled out all the old nails, then started sanding.



It got quite crowded on the back deck, but this little project won't take long.


I'm going to finish the sanding on the weekend and put the first undercoat on...then we'll see how she looks and if she needs any more more holes filling in or more vigorous sanding.

I think she's going to look terrific!

    I love reworking pieces that someone else has abandoned.

    Gail, it's terrific when you can see the potential of something isn't it? I really love bringing things back to life
