Tea Cart Sheet Music Revamp


Although I must admit I don't actually have any tea trolleys in my home (hmmm, that might need to change) I do just love them. So when I spied this little guy on the curb I knew he'd be coming straight home with me.


(Disclaimer: This is my parents garage. If I was lucky enough to have one (a garage that is) the cans of paint would probably be arranged in order of colour gradient - yes, sad but true. No offence Mum and Dad, you guys know how much of a neat freak I am anyways!).

I gotta say that he did kinda just sit around for a while at first. I was waiting for him to 'tell' me just what he wanted to become. Eventually he did lean over and whisper in my ear; 'Make me a girl. I wanna be all dressed-up in vintage cream and sweet sepia sheet music'.
Well, who am I to argue?

Sooo, I got to cleaning and sanding. Priming, painting and glazing. Decoupaging and sealing.
And eventually she emerged....




I love the original rusty old castors.


For that added little touch I covered the dowel hand rail with sheet music too.

I think he, oh...I mean she is much happier now!

Hope you liked this little project.
