New Listings for Tuesday on ebay
by sunnydaz8

I have been busy in my workshop getting more listings together.  

I re purposed an old carpenter's tool box to make it into a useful fireside or hearth cupboard.  I am including a vintage shovel to clean up the ash in the fireplace or wood stove and a hearth broom.  The carpenter's tool box has the original paint.  It makes such a nice grouping

 We added rings to the back to make it easy to hang or you can display it on the floor
(not too close to the fire or stove)


I have also listed an old wood soda crate cubbie in its original condition
It is great for displaying your small collectables

Thank you for stopping by 
 Shoe Shine Bench
The bench has a lid that flips up for storage

I do not know the age of this box or the origin - it has nicks & dings and shows ware
It is  a nice useful bench
 
 
Dinner Bell
This vintage dinner bell  is mounted on a wood board
I did re finish the board in a black paint and than sanded it to give it a worn look
It is a nice accent piece for your kitchen
 
 
Storage Work Box
This old work box  can be hung on the wall or used as a stacking box.
The lid is held on with leather hinges.  The box appears to be vintage, but the previous owner has painted it.  One of the leather hinges also appears to have been re placed.

Happy Friday

I will be listing these items on ebay later  today

This old bent wood yoke has been re purposed as a candle holder

We added a metal candle cup and are including the battery operated candle. 

The candle holder can be displayed on a window sill or hung on the wall or ceiling.  

This gathering includes a vintage coffee pot, enamelware trivet and a ladle all displayed in an old crate.  The crate has a dried attic surface and oxidize nails

This is an old oil lamp that can be hung from the ceiling or displayed on a shelf.  It is rusted from age.  I have no idea of the age or origin of this unusual oil lamp.

ebay Listings

This is an old mangle board with carved grooves and a carved handle.  The mangle board has its original attic dried surface.  The patina is just beautiful.
I was told the mangle board was used for a wash board or also a board to smooth a feather bed.
I just love preserving the past by collecting and selling primitives
You can find me on ebay as sunnydaz8


The carved handle has nicks and dings and signs of ware


 This beautiful bowl was in need of TLC
It was cleaned and than rubbed with mineral oil
I decided to give it a rustic look so I painted it in a gray color but I exposed the under color to give it an aged look

The inside of the bowl shows its years of use

The old wooden bowl is a nice accent piece 
 

I re purposed an old hand made doll cradle to use as a wooden storage box.  Great to display wooden bowls, or use for fruit.  The cradle has its original patina

Use for displaying old wooden bowls


 2 vintage wood boxes - 1 has a flip top lid  & the other has 3 pull out drawers


These are just a few items that will be listed

I re purposed an old hand made sleeve board into a useful pantry shelf to hang your pots, pans & tinware.  The shelf can be used to display your wooden ware. 
 We added black chain  to make it easy to hang from the ceiling.


Hanging Pantry Shelf
We added square headed old nails around the edge to make hanging the 
pots & spoons easy to hang


I found this old harness vice with its original aged patina and rusted bolts at an antique shop.  It is rustic and hand crafted.  
I thought it would make a great hanging candle light for the ceiling.  We added a piece of old wire to the top to make it
easy to hang.
We added a votive candle cup and a tea light
The bottom piece of wood was shaved so the candle cup
would stand straight on the wood.
Look closely at the aged patina and oxidize nails.
