Old Shelf – New Life!
We have an old shelf (like really old – almost 60 years) that was used for storing grocery jars like flour, rice, sugar, etc. Now it’s time to clean it, sand it and finish with flax oil. I can’t imagine such an old shelf always being natural to finish with lacquer.
Before:
It’s time for the shelf to shine. To shine in my kitchen on top of my just finished baking unit. I’m seeing potential in this shelf! Realy!
After:
It still has its story to tell, but it’s looking way better! What do you think?
Vintage. I love it! I already can’t wait to put all the jars in it!

Thank you, I’m a bit sucked with dishwasher & sink section… but today I made coffee, sat down and cut few boards 🙂 I hope to share something on that soon! It’s not coming easy for me but I enjoy the process and at the end I’m so emotional and happy and walking with smile on my face for day 🙂
