Reclaimed, Reused, and Recycled



I found this beautifully shaped chair-back some time ago at an antique shop in Monroe. It sat in the garage for a while, and a few weeks ago, I dug it out, primed and painted it, and mounted it on the north side of my new garden shed. It's good to see an old, discarded part of an old chair assume a new life with a facelift, adding architectural detail to a brand-new shed that needed some discreet aging.



You can clearly see this lovely shaped wood from the kitchen and deck, and it is turning into quite a conversation piece.
