While out antiquing this past summer we came upon a yard sale.
Not any yard sale but one that the Lions Club put on. So you knew the proceeds were going
to a great cause.
Remember I picked up this. I believe I paid $2.00. My hubby couldn't figure out why I wanted THAT!!!
Well after some painting and sanding....... This is how it turned out.
Wasn't quite sure where I was going to hang it.... then I found this at another sale.
I loved the red schoolhouse. I believe this is from a collection by Johnson Bros.
I knew the two were a match and I hung them here.
I added the dried hydrangeas from my garden. It looked a little bare.
Here is in the Master Suite. Just a peak.
Thanks for stopping by and leaving your comments.
I love reading them all.

How pretty that little shelf looks! So much better in white. I love the plate too.
ReplyDeleteLinda your shelf is beautiful. I love the Church plate. I can't wait to see more of your bedroom. It looks very pretty.
ReplyDeleteHow pretty! I have one of those in my garage we planned to paint white, it's gold though. Yours turned out just gorgeous with the vignette you created!
ReplyDeleteThat is just a perfect piece on your wall. I love those plates by Johnson Bros. Very nice.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful wall ornament and the price can't be beat! ~ Maureen
ReplyDeleteLove that beautiful wall ornament. Don't you just love that Johnson's Brother plate. I have one just like it, I plan to display it after the holidays.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great job! Love that pretty shelf painted like that. I have the same plate :) It is Johnson Bros. The friendly village collection. It's actually marked, School House. It's very sweet with the snow falling. I bid on a small collection through shopgoodwill.com (amazing btw) I just love the whole Friendly Village collection.I didn't get any of the school house, though. I got the mill, the covered bridge, etc. but they are all pretty! Very beautiful display!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty Linda! I like the shot looking thru your mirror. Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteLinda, I love this piece and the dish is great. Love the shot you took of this.

What a pretty grouping you created. The hydrangeas are so pretty!
ReplyDeleteI really LOVE it! It looks so much better with the paint job you gave it. I have a piece similar to that in my basement that I've been hanging on to. It's projects like yours that encourage me to keep things that might look better with a makeover.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty addition and I love Friendly Village Plates! Take care, Laura
ReplyDeleteGreat find and I love how your finished it. Looks so pretty with your dried flowers.
ReplyDeletelove the changes you made to your sweet little shelf, and what a bargain!
