When your rake handle breaks, spray paint the rake with enamel and put a screw through the hole. Use the fingers to hang necklace. I put mine on the back of the bedroom door.
" WITH EVERY BREATH I PLANT THE SEEDS OF DEVOTION. I AM A FARMER OF THE HEART" In the course of Urban life there are those of us with a Farmers Heart. We have a love affair with nature. In Urban life, nature is sometimes junk and what to make of this unsightly junk mixing it with plants and flowers, reclaiming it as new furniture with a slight twist.

Art Desk and Chair
This was a full hutch desk with a fold down desk top. I need an art table/desk that works for sewing and bigger projects. So I cut off the hutch leaving a gap for paper storage, then attached the headboard from a poster bed. The antique wood gives it the look I like. I also replaced the knobs. The desk is not a standard height. the top sits 34 1/2 inches from the floor which makes it a nice height to stand and work at.
The 34 1/2 inch height is great to stand by but it makes it hard to find the right size chair. This chair was given to me and with the addition of wheels it is the perfect size. Nice leather seat is comfortable.
Floor Cloth
I got a box of furniture swatches from a furniture store. I sewed them together and love the way it looked. once again I just piled them up and pulled out 5 at a time sewed them together in strips and then put it down.
I hung it up on the A frame. Added 75% modge podge and 25% water. and brushed it on. 2 hours later it was back down in the artroom.
