Found this little beauty at an estate sale on a Sunday You know what that means...1/2 Price day!!! I picked her up for $6.00. Woot woot win for me.
I cleaned her up a bit, it was lookin pretty grungy with all the spider nests. Ewe


Then I took all the metal pieces off.
I painted the sides with FolkArt chalk paint and drew out some flowers on the side panel. I left the ends unfinished so it's personality would shine through.
My paints. I'm very limited on space, so trying to find room for everything is a challenge, and my supplies end up in unique places.
Painted the flower scene, kind of whimsical I think.
Cleaned and sanded the rusty wheels with light blue green acrylic paint. Also, on the inside of the wagon. The bottom I repainted with FolkArt chalk paint.
I'm considering putting a couple coats of polyurethane on it for protection or wax.
I love it.
With a bit of imagination and a good deal.
You can recycle and this doesn't end up landf
End up as landfill. Win win
Suggested materials:
  • Folk art chalk paint,   (All the supplies purchased were from JoAnns Fabrics.)
