A project and some finds

I was looking around at Fifi's blog
the other night and a project hit me. Remember those green tables from the last post. I decided to spice them up a bit.
I took a bunch of letterpress letters I had and stamped the heck out of them.


It looks better in person. I still have to stabilize those legs and put some more laquer over the letters, But I'm happy with the whimsical quality of it. You could do this with any stamps actually. Fifi did it with script lettering on a white coffee table.


here are some goodies I found at the sales yesterday.
They are all being listed on ebay this week.


oops got my toes in this pic :)

I love old signeage, and I'm a sucker for those chip clips. And aren't those
table legs to die for. Look at those details.

Well DH and I are off to the Flea Market tomorrow morning (before it gets too hot).
I'm looking forward to it.
Have a good one.

The stampedtable looks great!
I visited your booth Thursday when I was in Tyler - I'll try to get a picture of what I bought on my blog today or tomorrow.
Have fun at the flea market - too hot for me. I may try to walk around the block in a bit to check out an estate sale but that is about it for me!
