                                                              F.O.B. The Dalles, Oregon
                                 
                                   SOLD



Buried in about an inch-in-a-half of dirt, in the driveway of a second hand store with rubble stacked all over this hidden iron piece became the foundation for this end table frame.  Even though it was all but discarded for worth, we had to buy it.  It was rusted, loosely held together and scratched beyond pleasant but we bought it anyway.  My wife spotted it underneath everything.  I walked right past it.  It had no top.  We tightened up the legs and re-painted it.  Then we added the top made from some old and weathered cedar fencing panels we confiscated some time ago.  The side trims are a flat mahogany trim peeled off the side of a discarded bedroom closet door.  The end trims are the side support of an old discarded motor-home window screen.  They look amazing together.  Thankfully, my wife spotted this buried treasure in the driveway of the second hand store we were walking to exit.  Another piece saved.  We like this one.  It is a wonderful one-of-a-kind jewel.

 


Really Cute Piece!
