Sometimes I despise the fact that we have to slap stains and poly coats on beautiful raw wood. Sure, I understand the purpose, but I love finding treasures that show wood transformed through the ages.
How I adore a metal piece with signs of tarnish and wear. I’ll even try to replicate that look like I did on this new candelabra project. I’ve picked up several old metal pieces lately and am still working them into our new kitchen space.
I know collecting crocks is quite a fad right now, but I’ve always loved them – or any old pottery piece for that matter. The more signs of age and imperfection, the better.
