COTTAGE FINDS..........

Since our closing date for our new cottage is getting so close, I thought I'd share some items that I'm bringing with us, but they will be remodelled or repurposed in some way.


First up these old wooden water skis.  I think they will look so cute up on the wall somewhere, hubby is not so sure.  

Of course, when I went on to Pinterest to check out if anyone else had posted pictures of old water, downhill or cross country skis used as decor, I found this (so cute)....

Now I just need to decide what I'm going to do with mine.


Next up, is an old oak chair that I picked up at the side of the road with a "Free" sign on it.  It definitely has some new fabric in it's future...stay tuned....

Then there are these old metal headboards that were left with our cottage and I haven't been able to part with. I know I can find a use for them somewhere, after a good scrubbing and painting, of course!

And of course, an old wooden chair, with it's adorable scalloped seat profile.  I'm sure to find a home for it in one of the bedrooms.

And last, this weird wood circle piece.  I am not sure what it was or is....but I am determined it will end up somewhere as something.  If anyone knows what this is, please let me know.
