My Favorite Big Trash Day Transformation!

See the complete (before and after) transformation of this vintage riding horse toy.
My very talented and creative friend spotted this vintage toy riding horse on the curb for big trash day. She knew it was no longer safe to be ridden but couldn't pass it up.
She spray-painted the horse purple and silver (at her daughter's request) and then the horse was secured to the ceiling with rope and anchors.
Now this (nearly free) vintage beauty can be enjoyed for years to come.
Enjoyed the project?

EdiLeck on May 26, 2015About 30 years ago, these were highly sought after to remake into decorative carousel horses. People would put a pole up the middle, paint them in a carnival fashion and, VIOLA! Carousel horse! I like this re-purpose much better!
