The Garden Chair

Der The chair was a typical garden chair.

He was probably purchased, brought into garden and there he stood untill it was time for disposal.

At some point someone probably started an attempt to paint the chair.

The wood was badly decomposed. In some cases, the paint was still partially in place and the wood very crumbly.

Therefore, they used a very dark wood color probably trying to hide the traces of age.

What works in the movie and on television on the actors with make-up work - was here a waist of time!

When I had told Larry about the idea. he wanted to declair me as being crazy.

But what is in my head one time, there is only one way for me - do it!

I gave myself courage. If it fails, I have done no damage.
Only my time was wasted.

That is why I could not do any major crop damage!

Well lets getting started!!!

Larry avoided neatly to help me, because he considered it as a total senseless endeavor.

After day of sanding, puttying and more sanding, it was finally ready.
 

I was able to apply the wood base coat.

After that came the ground color in green.

After this was all try, I applied the Craze Medium.

Again waiting untill it is completly try.

In the meantime, I had mixed up the color.

I think it was worth it, and I can be real proud of my work!

The Milk Chum

I do not know how long this pitcher is already in my possession. Originally, it was silver.

It is an original - but unfortunately without any cover!

With every move, this milk jug has been pushed further into the background.

And at last, even behind the front door!!

No more!

It is a very very eye catching
piece in our entrance hall!

These are normal cardboard plates.

A challenge - right?

Till . . . . . . .

 
naja till I had an idea. . .

I was so amazed from the craze medium, that I had to tra it here also.

Base paint is brown.

Then I had to try a different
Technique.

And then one more time with Litllefoot!

The hardest part was here to shoot a picture from Littlefoot.She became a real little bitch and did not want to get her picture taking.

The Pipe Shelve (?)

Sorry I did not take a picture from "before".

It stood outside. And that it could not collapsed, Larry lashed it to a tree.

When I asked him if I could have this thing for a test, he shook his head and looked at me somewhat incredulously.

And indeed, the shelf has fallen apart and had to be re-screwed together.

Never the less I think,the effort was worth it!

I dont think I need to say anything here - or?

Originally it was white.

When we then bought us blue garden furniture,
Larry quickly sprayed the stool blue.

and later (as you can see) then used as a stand, abuse as a shelters, etc.

now he can stand there proud!!

The Refrigerator Door

Larry did not not liked the door from our refrigerator on our terasse no more.

That I did not to hear twice!!

another challenge!!!

The Camping Table

 Had I known that I eventually show it all on my homepage, I would have taking pictures right from the start.

With the blue garden furniture, he got blue.

And - what should I say. . .
then he belonged to me!!!

Even the front door was not a stopper to me. 

here you find the Alliance Crest as described in the column Crest.

The Chairl

- no Words -

I think that I don't have to say to much here. . .
