This last weekend found me (and my honey) at many yard sales. This item was one of the things that has a new home. The original color had some browns and blacks…lots of faded spots.
Since my honey paints so much better than I do (yes, I really try) I asked him to paint it white. Not a good choice, white did not want to stick…turned yellow in places …just a general mess. We then decided to put a coat of black – that looked better, ever better after the second coat…then a touch up of some more black.
My guess it is some sort of pedestal – you can place what ever on top.
It has metal, wicker like wood, and bamboo like stuff. The height is almost 32 inches and the top is nearly 11 inch square.
This top does not look square in the picture - bad picture taking angle…as well as color…it is definitely a deep black.
Probably I will use this “odd pedestal thing” here in the computer room. Right now, it is next to the desk with a birdhouse sitting on it.
Oh yes, forget to mention – the cost was $2.00 – being that cheap – I thought at the time I selected it not a lot of money involved so if it does not turn out like I had envisioned not much was lost.
What has been your latest yard sale find!
